CINEBENCH R11.5 64 Bit is a real-world cross platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s performance capabilities. CINEBENCH is based on MAXON’s award-winning animation software CINEMA 4D, which is used extensively by studios and production houses worldwide for 3D content creation. MAXON software has been used in blockbuster movies such as Spider-Man, Star Wars, The Chronicles of Narnia and many more.
CINEBENCH is the perfect tool to compare CPU and graphics performance across various systems and platforms (Windows and Mac OS X). And best of all: It’s completely free.
The Core i7 3610QM scores 6.08, which is considerably more than the desktop Core i5 2500k processor. The Core i7 2960XM Extreme Edition still tops this chart, although the i7 3610QM is not that far behind, highlighting the architectural improvements with Ivy Bridge.
Well I never thought I would say it, but £1,700 is actually pretty good value for that machine. must be their best priced laptop in a long time. I might end up going for a 128GB SSD though as 64GB is borderline.
Thats a nice looking system. good pictures of the keyboard, is that the Star Trek font they use? lol.
What a spec, my dream laptop. The ivy bridge mobile processors look good, but not really such a huge advancement for Intel.
Shame they didnt use an AMD processor, but I suppose it wouldnt be popular.
Dell confuse me, some of their pricing upgrades are decent, like the HD7970 but the memory options can be excessive. the fact that this is easy to open makes me want to spec the memory as LOW as possible, then get some from amazon, like the corsair veageance (16gb for £100 on amazon for 1600mhz! 2x8gb!).
Can this computer take 8GB memory sticks?
Hi Warren, yes it can take 8gb memory sticks. go for it !
I dont mind dell machines. (its basically dell) – but I think id opt for a precision with Quadro for work. The only concern i have is dell batteries, ive had three other machines now and all the batteries fail after a year.
I ordered one, now to deal with my wife 🙁
You are mad buying one of these ! you could build one for much less ! alienware are a ripoff.
Dont talk nonsense, this isn’t a desktop system. you can’t make a laptop. half the parts aren’t widely available for a start.
Yes there are cheaper options like the vortex 3 from pcspecialist but they look cheap compared to Alienware. This is also cheaper than an apple too and has better spec. I’m sold on it
