Greasemonkey is in Canada. North America AW Allows for CPU and Hardware swaps to keep up with the new tech without voiding warranty. This is shown on their webbie.....

we in malaysia also can wert , only they dont warranty the new hardware that u placed in - -" is the same as in canada or wherever in the world if u add in parts externally into ur AW.

okie.. is there a technician to help u fix in the cpu for u? of cuz have to pay.. but is there such service? i will be swapping my cpu to core series once it released.

u have to DIY , but the proc seems very easy to replace.

Did he get his down by AW or externally? If externally is at owners own risks, but if by AW they will allow upgrades which they don't allow here... thats my understanding. Lets say I wanna upgrade to a 920XM, I can't get DELL Msia to do it for me, but DELL US allows, is what I understand from their website.... But this will come in handy when I get a M17series AW where there are more options for changing GPUs .... icon_idea.gif
*
Are u sure dell US lets you do that ? Last i heard somebody in the forum , if not wrong monkey, said dell wont do that upgrate for you. But you are free to upgrate any parts urself at ur own risk but wont void the warranty , thats 1 good point on dell laptops.

gonna CF 5870 into my lappy went by frens get back xD wanna see the performance drool.gif

My understanding from this support page: http://4help.alienware.com/cgi-bin/alienwa...php?p_faqid=623

It will be good for people like me who extend warranty to the longest you see so I don't waste it by voiding. But it all depends on the price of the upgrade as well. If this is a wrong representation then do let us know cos its just a lay mans understanding of this. I haven't spoken to the tech support from US regarding this cos the Tech support here didn't know anything when I asked. They only knew Malaysia laws.

You can CF 5870 your lappy? Where to get the GPU Parts? Pricing...? If the M17x can do that and have 2 DDR5 Cards in I wouldn't mind getting a M17x cos the only thing holding me back is the anticipation of something new from NviDia or ATI coming up at the AW Site....  unsure.gif

no harm trying tongue.gif just have to plug out my frens 5870 and plug in to mine right ? biggrin.gif if it doenst work , then too bad lo sweat.gif theoraticaly should work la

Just got an update for my extension of Complete Cover from 1 year to 3 years...my advice is.....PLEASE CHOOSE 3 YRS CC from the day you order your lappy online or you'll get the quotation like below:

Thanks for the request.

With regards to the information that you're after, here are the details for your reference:

Warranty Extension Price for 3 Year Complete cover  – RM 1950

Its nearly the price for one whole lappy!!!

my 3 year warranty was free tongue.gif

Eh SLI GTX260m >> single GTX280m anytime lol. Well....really regretted not goin for a sli gtx260m config at the beginning T.T
*
yea , but only when the game utilizes SLI which most new games on default dont. You would either need nvidia to update their driver or wait and download new profiles for nhancer .. which does not happen in the first 2 weeks of release for any new game =.="
saw d new price for m17x r2 ? upgrate to cf 4870 for only 800+ =.="

realy ? weird , id get different awnsers on my end . They say warranty wont be void , but warranty just wont cover the new hardware thats all, but thats when i ask for ram , hardisk , gpu and cpu , didnt ask about mobo .
and lets face facts , they wont know we disected our laptops , there aint any stickers around that would be torn ~

id do that this evening @@ getting different news from diff source =.="

QUOTE(zad78 @ Apr 9 2010, 11:29 AM)
but they will know the 'original' items in your lappy based on your service tag...you can go to dell's website and put your service tag and there you u will see the original configuration and current configuration of your lappy....if they see that your lappy has been unofficially upgraded apart from the RAM and hard disk...the warranty will be void....unless you change back to original cpu or gpu when u send it back for warranty....

my two cents....
*
obviously we would changed back to our original specs wont we =.=" the less they know , better for us

yes what you said is true. our specs is under our Service Tag. and don't expect that technician will not know to differentiate between touched and untouched hardwares. unless you rub all the previous thermalpaste 100.00%.

well tl;dr version - just don't.

all my thermalpaste has been replaced by thermal greese , lolx ... original 1 sarks =_="
