The first difference you will find between M11X and M14X is the presence of a CD/DVD drive. In M14X CD/DVD drive is available while in M11X not. If you don’t use CD/DVD drive a lot, you may better choose the M11X. With 1GB NVIDIA card, M11X can handle graphics setting at low to medium level. You can force it to play on high to very high settings, but some lags would certainly happen.
In graphics quality the difference between M11X and M14X, actually is not too wide. The M14X has one with 1.5GB VRAM. You can also play games like StarCraft 2 comfortably. But, if you upgrade the graphics card up to 3GB VRAM you will get more advantages from this. It’s extremely helpful to counter lag and you can extend your gaming by connecting to external monitors easily.
The difference in battery life support is not too significant either, ranging from 1 to 1.5 hours with M11X takes the better length. With this, both laptops are quite good for your mobility. However, the size of M11X makes it about 1 pound lighter than the M14X, which is 9 pounds. So, since the M14X comes complete with CD/DVD drive, choosing it will be highly recommended. But, whichever one of the laptops you are going to choose, make sure it already has an Intel Core i7, or at least i3 or i5.
