Dell's gaming laptop to bring, ALIENWARE alien dominance series is understandable, of course, its high price so that each user should think twice before buying. As one big family relative XPS series notebooks in the same sense of configuration and control did not they strive, and price is more approachable. Dell's XPS laptop as a sub-brand has always been respected by the majority of gamers, both in its hardware configuration, or audio-visual entertainment will be the ultimate as far as possible to meet or exceed the most demanding user needs.
Since Dell's acquisition of aliens, since there were aliens Series XPS Series product line with so-called "contradictions" on-line will give up once heard Dell XPS brand, so today I will introduce this Dell XPS 15 so that these rumors true pseudo-self-defeating. Indeed, XPS in terms of price than the aliens to occupy a greater advantage, and secondly, in the sense of performance and handling are also comparable with the aliens.
As we all know, the Dell XPS series notebooks are designed with industry-leading products, and its mainly for gamers, PC enthusiasts, and the desire of high-quality products and high quality services tailored to users. The Dell XPS 15 in the interface area, such as Displayport, HDMI, USB3.0, Blu-ray, etc. are all equipped with high-end interfaces, RGB Full HD LED display screen with support for Waves MaxxAudio technology, JBL speakers, regardless of the game or enjoy the movie are quite shocking.
On the hardware side, Intel i7 740QM processor's computing power is no doubt strong, and 2GB of video memory NVIDIA GeForce GT 435M is disappointing, the actual testing of the game is passable, but the machine cooling control is people boast about. For more detailed testing and experience will give you the following article were announced.
Full Metal Jacket i7 processor performance is good and full of texture
Open the box, Dell XPS 15 uses anodized aluminum top cover greets process, which is now the conventional metal notebook design, cover the top of the antenna for the wireless adapter unit area, so there is ABS plastic design, the aim is to ensure the smooth flow of the wireless signal.

Compared to the appearance, perhaps you Tell me more concerned about the hardware configuration of Dell's XPS 15, which uses the Intel i7 740QM quad-core eight thread processors and 2GB of video memory, NVIDIA GeForce GT 435M combinations. Processors, Intel i7 740QM with the previous Intel i7 820QM have the same frequency, frequency of 2.93GHz Core slightly less L3 cache to 6MB, and 45NM of the packaging process is complete with 45W of power is no different.
Compared to the relatively strong performance of CPU, GPU is a bit out of tune, while the independent memory of 2GB, but subject to the lower memory bandwidth's sake, the whole performance will therefore not be fully exploited.
We first look at the Dell XPS 15 processor performance. Cinebench R10 is a recognized benchmark, most of the mainstream media at home and abroad test the system performance can be seen in its presence. It passed many tests to measure the content of the computer processor and graphics performance, supporting up to 16 processors or processor Core tests. Pass the test, Intel i7 740QM processor power completely unfolded strong, multi-core over a million points very well.
3Dmark06 of the machine by 3D processing power test, we see play a major role in NVIDIA GeForce GT 435M score also makes sense that we, together with Intel i7 740QM strong support, even at the highest resolution Dell XPS 15 has terrific.
The Full HD screen display outstanding overall performance
Dell XPS 15 uses a 15.6-inch 16:9 screen design of the cutting process, in addition to 1920 1080 resolution, the material compared to the normal RGB LED LED-backlit screen can give the user a better visual experience.
As a result of full HD resolution screen design for the play to their maximum potential, then in 3DMark06, 3DMark Vantage appearance of this part of the turn.
3DMark Vantage and 3DMark06 different, it is not a simple fraction to represent the final test results, and its classification according to quality into entry-level (Entry, E), the performance level (Performance, P), high-level (High, H), the limit level (Extreme, X) four, scoring expression turned into a combination of letters plus numbers, which more closely reflect the performance level of the position can be more and more fair comparison. Of course, the score between the different levels are not comparable.
Entry test, the Dell XPS 15, said there is no pressure, but its graphics performance in the Performance link on the prominent lack of a disadvantage, GPU score only 3155, compared to the CPU 11451 score far.
For large-scale 3D games often play friends, a hard disk read speed is also very important - although not help improve frames, but no one likes the game has been Loading. Pass the test, the Dell XPS 15 are equipped with this 640GB 7200 rpm hard drive read speed can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, and the temperature of 49 degrees disappointing.
Backlit keyboard + JBL speakers excellent user experience
Qualified as a gaming notebook not only have powerful hardware configuration support, good user experience are equally important. Although in appearance, the Dell XPS 15 can not be compared with ALIENWARE series, but there is on the user operating the same purpose.
And ALIENWARE M15x is the same, with the larger size of the Dell XPS 15 does not carry the numeric keypad, which prefer to set shortcut keys for some of the players may have some regrets. But the chocolate-style keyboard has a decent percussion experience, the key-way medium, key spacing is reasonable, whether it is a long text entry or the game will not bring the slightest fatigue.
Dell XPS 15 keyboard, comfortable, light design is more user-friendly. Taking into account the user may encounter in the dark using the computer, Dell XPS 15 with a backlit keyboard, both dazzle and humane.
The keyboard does not account for a large space, then the touch pad does not even seem shabby. Dell XPS 15's touchpad larger and the actual operation is very smooth and comfortable feel, the keyboard shortcuts can be turned on and off touch pad, above the hidden lights as a reminder.
JBL logo in the upper left of the keyboard marked the Dell XPS 15 with a certified speaker through the brand, compared with three top right of the keyboard shortcut keys, the user can set the corresponding shortcut, open and close and transfer the wireless communications Waves MaxxAudio the control panel. The keyboard has two speakers left and right sides, respectively.
Came to the bottom of the fuselage, JBL woofer filling eyes. Through the actual experience of the actual video and audio entertainment, Dell XPS 15 bass that really good, and the user can also adjust the control panel using the Waves MaxxAudio into your favorite variety of sound effects.
Rich and high-end interface configuration is slightly less than the quantity
Dell XPS 15 positioned in the high-end products, the interface configuration naturally, the audience can not be sorry. Dell XPS 15 a more comprehensive types of interfaces, but as a machine equipped with 15.4 inches screen, less the number of interfaces disappointing.
Distribution of the fuselage on the left only a USB3.0 interface and cooling air outlet and not the rest of the interface, if the remaining space to set a few more interfaces, I believe in the course of the game will be more convenient.
The right side from left to right followed by the distribution of the burner, audio input / output jacks, and eSATA interface. It is
DELL Studio XPS M1645 battery worth mentioning that the Dell XPS 15 equipped with a more high-end Blu-ray drive, with full HD screen, enjoying the movies will take a more stunning visual scenes.
In addition to the body right and left sides, in the rear of the fuselage also has MINI Display Port port, HDMI interface, RJ45 Ethernet jack, power jack, a USB3.0 interface and computer keyhole. eSATA interface supports charging function off.
Dell XPS 15 with a 9-cell lithium-ion battery, battery for operating the regional thick was a slope, not only user feel more comfortable, and more to help increase the bottom of the space cooling.
Remove the battery, Dell XPS 15 has a preset SIM card slot, there is no network in the individual case, the user can use the SIM card slot with free replacement of the internal body of the 3G network adapter to the Internet, but heavier a lot of money, plus the current body of 3G Internet access fees, I believe very few people in the country will use the device, let's put it to add it as a backup.
Dell XPS 15 to open the bottom of the chassis panel, the user can regard the memory, network card, TV card upgrade, if you want to replace the
DELL Inspiron XPS M170 battery hard drive you must remove the palm rest by the bayonet, the more cumbersome and inconvenient.
Fever control unsatisfactory life amazing
Dell XPS 15 equipped with a Intel i7 740QM processor and NVIDIA GeForce GT 435M graphics card, the configuration must have a strong high fever, but taking into account their larger body size, but also a change of heat to help Here we look at Dell XPS 15 heat in the end.
Dell XPS 15 has long been its large size heavy quality, regardless of weight or the weight of military travel more than 3Kg, heavier quality for mobile users do not often, but taking into account the larger size of the screen to bring more stunning visual effects, this sacrifice is worth it.
Throughout marketed large-size notebook
DELL Studio XPS 1340 battery, battery life is their disadvantage, but Dell XPS 15 with a 9-cell 90Wh lithium ion battery, through MobileMark2007 test, its life time to reach about three and a half hours, very well.
Summary
Intel i7 740QM processor and NVIDIA GeForce GT 435M graphics card with for Dell XPS 15 with a decent performance, and backlit keyboard, high-end interfaces, JBL speakers and other user-friendly and excellent configuration to make the user experience more comfortable, more long life is the bright spots, but the package is not very heat of the heat with some regret. And belong to a large family of products ALIENWARE contrast, Dell XPS 15 enjoys a great advantage in price, while comparable operating experience and the hardware configuration, it is worth less than budget but want to have cutting-edge enjoyed by the user to select.
