Dell has respawned its flagship XPS gaming notebook into an even bigger and more powerful beast. The M1730 is one of the fastest gaming notebooks on the market and is certainly the flashiest. The M1730 is the most attention-grabbing notebook I have see...
Eye-catching case with LED lighting; dual-SLI graphics support DirectX 10 games; integrated Logitech GamePanel LCD; high-end component options; excellent gaming frame rates; highest productivity scores weve seen
Expensive; very heavy; gaming scores fell short of the top
Its not the fastest gaming notebook weve ever tested, but the SLI-equipped Dell XPS M1730 is still a very worthy choice for forward-looking gamers who value design, features, component options, and DirectX compatibility. ...
Dual SLI graphics; strong mobile gaming scores; 10-key number pad; integrated Logitech GamePanel LCD; multicolored, built-in LED lights play along with music and games; backlit keyboard; can play media files without booting up.
Similarly configured laptops are faster on some tests; plastic lid and creaky hinges dont scream (or sound like) luxury; the albatross that is the massive power brick.
With a redesigned case thats chock-full of cutting-edge technologies, the Dell XPS M1730 tops our list of our favorite gaming laptops.

This is the first time Ive sat down with an XPS system and after a few weeks of testing the Metallic Black Armor edition of the M1710, I can finally see what all the fuss is about. Even though the configuration we tested is not the top-end setup you...
Well priced, plenty of RAM and storage capacity, excellent for multitasking, good graphics card, suitable for gaming, USB 3.0, up to 16GB of RAM
Lacks an expansion slot, gets very warm when the graphics card is in use, no remote control
There's no doubt the Dell XPS 17 (1710X) is a great desktop replacement notebook. It has lots of power and storage capacity, modern connectivity and it even includes a touchscreen. You can use it as a gaming machine, a media centre or just for boring old...
