Dell Updates Graphic Solutions for Alienware M17x Notebook

Dell is undergoing some major updates for the fourth generation of the popular Alienware M17x gaming notebook. The said machine will reportedly be packed with the next-gen 28nm AMD Radeon HD 7970M and Nvidia GeForce GTX 660M or GTX 675M graphics solutions.

According to Dell's website, this GPU update will also be accompanied by a series of new display options, which includes the usual 1920x1080 Full HD as well as the 1600x900 HD+ panels. Some 3D-enabled 1920x1080 Full HD screen with WLED backlighting will be available as well.

Regardless of the scree panel to be used, these will be connected to the GPU through the new eDP (embedded DisplayPort) interface, which reduces the wiring footprint and reduces power consumption when compared to previous LVDS that's commonly used in laptps.

The Alienware M17x R4 comes with a 240W AC adapter and will be available in black or red. No details regarding the pricing or the release date of Alienware’s gaming notebook have been provided.
