Dell Inspiron XPS M170 Gaming Laptop Review

First and foremost, this is more of an update to the XPS Gen 2 rather than a new machine. Nevertheless, Dell’s Inspiron XPS M170 is about as powerful as mobile gaming currently gets, thanks largely nVidia’s awesome GeForce Go 7800 GTX graphics card and 256MB of dedicated DDR3 video memory (the XPS Gen 2 used the GeForce Go 6800 Ultra). While SLI for laptops is on the horizon, a single GeForce Go 7800 GTX is the fastest and powerful laptop GPU available.

The Inspiron XPS M170 is a powerhouse of a laptop that will appeal to high-end multimedia users. You can expect about 3 hours running time, depending on useage. Over you to you Alienware! [9 - Editors’ Choice]
