Hey all, I just figured i would post up a benchamark concerning both of my Alienware M17's... I have the results for Alienware #1 right now, and the results for Alienware #2 will be posted up tomorrow... So here we go!

Test Setup:
Both computers were benchmarked with all available windows updates for Windows Vista Home Premium x64 (as of 8-12-09), along with the newest drivers from ATI (as of 8-12-09). CCleaner was ran first, then done a complete defrag via Defraggler, and the power options in control panel were set to performance.

Alienware M17 #1 System Information:

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8400 @ 2.26GHz
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3870x2
3GB DDR3 1066 Dual Channel
Seagate Hard Drive ST9160411ASG ATA Device

3DMARK Vantage

3DMARK Score: P5761
GPU Score: 6458

The laptop was set upon a 17" Rosewell Laptop Cooler. The cpu hit 64 degrees Celsius during all the tests. The video cards hit 83 Celsius during all the tests.

I will post the results of the Alienware M17 #2 tomorrow.

Yeah, 3dmark really doesn't impress me - waiting for the games.

Nice look at it, though, mate. Thanks. It's nice to have some reference numbers in the mobile world.
