Ive been looking at the http://www.laptopspark.com" rel="nofollow - Alienware M11X and the http://www.laptopspark.com/categories/Category-306-ACER-Page2.html" rel="nofollow - 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:

Acer

Intel? Pentium? P6100 Dual Core Processor
13.3" HD Screen

Alienware M11x

1GB NVIDIA? 335M graphics
Less than 4.5 lbs and has over seven hours of battery life — with NVIDIA Optimus? graphics switching technology
double data rate 3 (DDR3) memory3, engineered to support the powerful next-generation processors that are designed to bring you faster speeds and higher bandwidths.

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?
