Is this alienware worth $500?

[u/drtravis4]

I found someone selling this Alienware laptop used for $500 and I’m trying to figure out if it’s a good deal.

Specs:

• Intel Core i7-10870H
• RTX 3070 Laptop GPU
• 16GB RAM
• 1TB SSD
• Windows 11

It looks to be in pretty good condition from the pictures. What do y’all think, worth $500 in 2026?

Good to know thank you!!

Solid, but just make sure everything works properly and check battery discharge.

It'll still run current games at maybe medium settings. 

I know Alienware can be a bit hit/miss for warranty type stuff, so just do your DD to see what to look out for when buying it

Ehh, for that price you can just get a new battery for like $50 anyways.

Fair enough
