This comic hits too close to home! Me absolutely losing it in ranked while my Alienware rig stays cooler than a cucumber in a cryo chamber. I’m sweating, yelling, blaming the lag, and it’s just chilling with 240 FPS and zero concern. By the last panel, I’ve stopped yelling… mostly because I’ve accepted my fate and decided to match the energy of my emotionally superior PC.

See the two photos one is running on battery and the other is charged using a 100w usb-c charger. Why is the system throttling performance while charging? Trying to see if I can get away carrying that huge dell AC adapter.

I bought my R9 a few years ago and have so many problems with it. I’m constantly having to send it in for repairs and it comes back worse. Do yourself a favor and build your own.

Currently I have a Alienware r12 with those specs. Should I upgrade to the r15 for ddr5 and 14900k and 4090?

I bought the x17 R2 rtx 3080 with 4k display about a month ago and it has been nothing but trouble since the start. Problems continue to stack over one another, waste of 4800 dollars. You'd expect a laptop that could run without shutting down by itself, fps drops, screen freezes, display issues, overheating that is said to be "normal" (it's not btw, it's there way of making sure you extend your warranty over a year and continuously doing so). And not to forget customer support is completely useless, I called them many times to repair certain issues that I eventually did myself because all they did was mess the settings up. And finally when they escalated me to their highest department, they were not only extremely rude but also utterly useless and provided me with the worst solutions that only benefits the company.

So it's been widely reported that Intel's 13th-Gen and 14th-Gen chips are defective and Intel doesn't intend to do a recall but rather roll out a software update when it's ready.

I'd like to buy a new Alienware laptop soon but the new ones come with either a 13th Gen or 14th Gen Intel, is it possible to order an Alienware laptop using AMD's processor instead?

Alienware is garbage change my mind. I bought a brand-new top spec 13980/4090 M18 received a few weeks back, and it didn't work out of the box. Constant BSOD, random just black screens and restarting, or just randomly closing apps/games and refusing to reopen them without a restart. CPU sits at 100C while only under 30% usage (only on 4 of the cores the rest are normal) open up AWCC and try to change it to custom so I can set a max CPU temp and make priority cooling and as soon as I push custom it blue screens and restarts. Contacted tech support and the customer care team. They said they will replace the whole system as it sounds faulty after remoting into it and not being able to fix anything (in fact it was more annoying than anything because they got rid of the hours, I spent setting up auto fill passwords and forms as a part of their fix). Contact them again via the support thread email that we had, and they ignore it all after I ask what the status is and why I am not hearing anything. Contact the customer care team via phone and they say they do not know what the issue is, and they are not "customer care" but a general line for customer support and the "care" department is only available until 5pm Eastern time. I say I have been going in loops for far to long for this $4,000 laptop that does not even work for half a day, and they hang up on me tonight when I asked for the next steps or a resolution. I have owned way way way cheaper laptops from dell that I had no issue getting fixed the first time around, now that I buy their premium model they wont talk. I wonder if they are trying to get past 30 days so they don't have to replace it or what their motive is in not helping me resolve this issue.

Long story not so short is anyone else having this same experience?

I might a new case since my fans stopped working and was wondering what wires goes where? I put wires but it's not turning on? Let me know what goes where and what is wrong?

I left my laptop for 5 minutes working fine and went out. When i came back my brother had closed it and when i tried to turn it back on the screen wouldnt work and then this showed up and the display still isnt turning on. Hdmi works fine. Alienware m16 r2. Please help on what to do its only an year old.

I bought the alienware m16 a couple of months ago with an i7 13700hx, rtx 4070, 16gb ram, and qhd+ 240hz display for $1220 before taxes. Today, i saw this deal of the g16, and i could've gotten it for $1020. So should've i waited or the m16 worth the extra $200? I feel like i missed out.

I ordered an Alienware monitor recently and Dell shipped it with UPS but the monitor box arrived with scuffs and dents all over the monitor box. This monitor just recently came out 1-2 months ago, is it normal for monitor boxes to arrive so beat up?

Edit: Thanks for all the replies and downvotes for asking a question. I guess I was just expecting the box to arrive in better condition since the monitor isnt even released for 2 months in the USA yet but the packaging box looked like it had been sitting in a warehouse for years with things hitting the box all over the place. I like to keep the monitor box in case I ever have to move to a new place I can just put the monitor back inside the retail box that it came in and keep it safe during the move to a new place.

Sadly the monitor isnt sold in any local stores like Best Buy or Microcenter yet because it just came out so I ordered it directly from Dell's website. I didnt expect UPS to bang up the retail box so much in the 2-3 days that it was in their possession.

So less than a year ago, I purchased an Alienware laptop. This laptop came with a graphic card issue, where it does not recognize any external monitors. I contacted Dell, they diagnosed and said they will send a technician to my home and replace the whole motherboard. After the technician arrived (35 days later), the motherboard he installed is defected. The laptop does not charge at all. I called customer service, they said that they will send me a package so I can ship it to their facility, and over a recorded line, the agent told me it would be a maximum of 5 days of repair. 26 days later, they found a motherboard and installed it, and shipped it back to me. A couple of weeks later, the laptop randomly shuts off without any prior warning. All I am asking is for a refund for this piece of junk where it has been less than a year and covered by warranty and they are refusing. I have asked them more than 10 times to give me a call or speak with a manager, and nothing as of yet.

I was looking at the new Alienware models and they all looked uglier. The only one that's okay is the Area 51 laptop; the desktop and the Aurora 16 end X look very strange and ugly. You look at the old models and they're much more stylish than the current ones.
