with HD5730, i also can offer the same price, or even better?

noted sir.

gonna update the list after the examination. i knew some of the user that didn't use Alienware anymore, so gonna remove their name as well.

Hi, i need recommendation here. I just see a good offer of the alienware m17x with this spec and the price of $1500 include shipping, should i take it??


actually the offer form ebay, if i want to change the spec to new sandy bridge he said the total
price will be $2000, should i take it or it is only scam??
the process of transaction all will done through ebay channel.
waiting for reply of anyone that have experience shopping online

for your information, motherboard used in M17x-R1, M17x-R2 and M17x-R3 are all different.

you can't simply unplug first generation of i7 (i7-920XM) and plug SandyBridge just like that. unless the seller willing to change the mobo as well.

and i never heard of 4 years warranty support too..

i am having an examination this 20th, surely i am quite busy

thanks for pointing that out tho bro! its fixed!

my advise is don't manually chance the setting since the processes is way beyond our estimation.

but if you still eager to adjust the fanspeed, you need to override the BIOS setting using specific software (some of BIOS version have their own certain temperature to maxed up the RPM of the fans), and it might causing disturbances on other aspects especially system temperature since you will be playing with BIOS power consumption's setting.

noted and will update once my Internet connection is fixed. now just online at Cybercafe

unbelievable price you got there my friend. did you checked your warranty status before and after you purchase it?

thanks brother. i did put your name on the Alienware M15x Ownerlist last week, so yea enjoy your stay!

meanwhile, any update on your GTX460M driver? if you have any tips regarding that matter, you might want to share with us too!

Hi, anyone knows that how to use FN + F6 in M11x to switch GC? I saw other website review said the hotkey works as well. ( black screen a while then GC changed) but for my case, there is no black screen or whatsoever help. Mr docter?

Hmm.. i do check the warranty status. The warranty show NDB warranty( next day business warranty) until 2013.haha.. i ask my seller about this because he tell me is one year only.. he says mayb dell not yet update the database yet..if they really forget to change then me untung ? lol. BTW, how to check the warranty is belonged to me? because the dell website doesnt show owner name and detail..

i will reply your PM regarding the FN keys after doing some research about that ya. quite pack this week

and don't worry about the naming aspects. if anything happened (God forbid), Dell will contact the name shown and the person will tell that the ownership was already been transferred

by the way, there is no owner of M17x-R3 yet?

just asking..haha

but the throttling problem really mess me up.. hate it..
dunno what should do now..

wanna try to open up my AW and clean it then try again..

RPM of the fans is not the factor that caused the throttling. its an effect from your high power consumption from your GPUs.

what is your Nvidia Driver version, BIOS version, and did you ever cleaned your heatsink fins before?

@Mr.Docter
huh? are you serious?
where?!

i know throttling not because of the speeding of fan..
nvidia version try alot.. now using 197.xx .. forgot.. not with my AW now.. using asus at other place...

I dint open up my AW before, thats why i said i want to open up and clean the heatsink fins, the fan and others ..
maybe after clean the performance will better.. this is what im thinking..

I'm looking forward to own this beast.

Looking for M17X or probably M15X. Any recommendation?
For gaming for quite a basic MMORPG game but wanted bigger screen.

Please quote me price as well.

POISON~!!!

Ownage

Thats the beast that everyone's talking about huh.

just imagine carrying that around O_O, damn good for the spine X)
