Ive been looking at the Alienware M11X and the Acer Aspire TimelineX 3820TZ, but im not sure which is best for gaming.I currently have a terrible Dell inspiron.The games I would like would be Fallout games, Dead space, Amnesia, games like that, so pretty much very high spec games.Here are the details:AcerP613G32nksIntel?

Buy the Alienware laptop.Why did you mention HP and Acer in your other post (different models too)?Looks like you are trying to sell laptops not get advice on which one to buy.Why are you posting in a CAD forum anyways?  Wouldn't you be better off posting in a gaming forum for advice?
