  • Very good performance, Lots of useful features, Cool lights
  • Small touchpad, Overclocking makes fans loud
  • As gamers and enthusiasts, we have to say the M1730 pushes all the right buttons. Its combination of performance, custom lighting and useful features make it a wholly impressive machine with very few faults. We can nitpick here and there but Dell has d...

  • The Dell XPS M1730 is fast... really fast! Its definitely the fastest notebook weve ever tested, and outside of a few specialty notebooks that use desktop CPUs, theres really no way to make anything faster right now. Its also expensive. Sure, Dell...

  • Incredibly fast, nice screen, Logitech keyboard LCD
  • Expensive, big, and heavy

  • Abstract:  As I mentioned in the review of the rather awkwardly named Rock X770 T7800-8800 , there are always going to be people that don't see the point of the gaming notebook. In that instance the Rock was the perfect tonic, thanks largely to the GeForce 8800M GTX...

  • Performance Analysis: Performance of the M1730 is mostly what we had expected given our systems specifications. The M1730 was able to perform just as well, if not better, than several loaded desktop systems in our tests. While the M1730 cant compet...

  • Stunning exterior, Impressive gaming performance, Overclockable Extreme processor available, Gorgeous screen, LED backlit keyboard, Customizable LED lights, Runs cool and quiet
  • Some gaming performance issues, Keyboard could feel more solid, Vista Home Premium and bloatware on a machine starting at $2,700?
  • 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.
