Asus W90 review

Asus might not be the first name you think of when it comes to gaming laptops, but it has just sent us the fastest portable 3D graphics-pusher we've ever seen. With 6GB of RAM, a Blu-ray drive and a huge 18.4-inch screen, it’s an astonishing performer Read more

Alienware Aurora mALX review

The Aurora mALX is arguably the most audacious gaming laptop in Alienware's line-up. Not only is it airbrushed to give it a 'gamer' aesthetic, but it's also the first laptop to use 1GB of dedicated graphics memory -- giving it arguably the greatest graphics performance seen outside of a high-end gaming rig Read more

rockdirect Xtreme SL review

The rockdirect Xtreme SL is one of the first laptops to use two graphics cards. It sounds the death knell for the days when laptops were perceived as poor gaming devices, and is part of a new breed of laptop that uses a 19-inch screen. It might be rather dull to look at, but boy, can it shift polygons Read more

rockdirect Xtreme 64 review

Not content with making the first laptop to use a dual-core CPU, rockdirect has also crammed in an Nvidia GeForce 7800 GTX Go graphics adaptor, the fastest mobile graphics chip available. This is not so much a desktop replacement as an improvement -- but it's very expensive, very hot and very, very heavy Read more

rockdirect Xtreme Ti review

While some may be put off by the Xtreme Ti's overwhelming weight and extortionate price, bulky laptops like this are the only option if you need cutting-edge gaming performance in a luggable device. The design isn't as extreme as the Alienware's Area 51m, but that might be an advantage if you want it for tasks other than eye-bleedingly fast gaming Read more
