The 17.3-inch Full HD screen, with a resolution of 1920x1080, might not have the highest resolution around, but that just means that the 5th generation Intel Core i7 CPU and NVIDIA mobile GPU inside won't be overtaxed pushing too many pixels. That said, those who want a bit more pizzaz can opt for a touch-enabled version. And those who want more graphics power can hook it up to Alienware's new Graphics Amplifier, which can automatically overclock the Core i7 CPU for maximum performance. The Alienware 17 is already available in the US with a starting price of $1,499
The Alienware 15, on the other hand, offers a bit more options, starting with the 15.6-inch FHD display. Buyers who want to see more pixels can go for the 3840x2160 UHD display option. The standard CPU is a slightly lower 5th gen Intel Core i5, but again, one can opt for the Core i7 choice. And like the Alienware 17, when this notebook is paired with a Graphics Amplifier, that Core i7 is automatically Turbo Boosted for some added oomph. Buyers can also choose between NVIDIA and AMD mobile graphics cards to go with their Alienware 15 purchase. The Alienware 15's basic price starts at $1,199.
