haha, thanks bro....quite excited to get it....

8 hours...lol...just do the basic setup 1st, then let it charge overnight....can't wait to start gaming with that...haha

dont let it charge overnight, pls dont.... spoil ur battery...

well then, what will your advise be?

congrat for ur purchase bro
i hope u can make a review for this laptop soon..
but pls u buy this gaming laptop is not about playing DOTA only right?
coz i have a friend who buy this laptop only to play DOTA on high setting he said..

well, once u get the laptop just plug and play, if u wish to use it directly, then unplug the battery, plug in the adaptor to use.
remember, whenever u use laptop with battery, after using it, remember to recharge it back(eventhough u used for 20% only), dont ever finish up ur battery charge

do u guys encounter ppl who say alienware is a noob stuff? those ppl who say things like cheh noob thing, my desktop pwns.. zz

Yeah my mates said it is a waste of money and desktop better lol...

All the time, regardless of what laptop you're using

my friend said AW is a laptop for kids bcoz with their bling2 light
i dont think so the parents will buy RM5k for their children below 12 years old

Last time oso I bought my Acer 6935G for RM4499 People say aiyooh waste money, better buy desktop.. lol dat time this was still cheaper than the XPS 16 with Core 2 and ATi 3650 or was it 3670? haha

As long its Laptop vs Desktop, the war never ends..

congratz bro can link stats? i also about to order a alienware m17x r3 but waiting for 3d moniter to be restock...hehe

Rowan23 ur new m17x , how much u bought for it ?

Just ignore them la... They jelly we can get it for 5-6k compared to their 2-3k desktops which aren't portable at all~

I WANT ALIENWARE ALSO!!! BUT I NO MONEY~~~~!!!! :cry:

haha, cheers bro....nah, i'm not a hardcore Dota fan, although i do play HoN from time to time...i'll be playing Dragonage, Mass Effect and some other games out there!...

right, but what if i'm on a plane? my company just informed me i might have to go to Germany on 9th of May (technically, that is the week that i am supposed to receive my laptop), and i heard that there are power ports on planes now, so i hope i can game a bit on it.

umm, my specs are following the Dell in HK, but i'll list it out for you anyway.

i7-2720QM, 17.3 Full HD LCD panel, 8 GB DDR3 RAM, 2 GB AMD Radeon HD6970M, 2*750GB 7200RPM HDD, Blu-ray disc drive.

I got it for about HKD 24,520, convert it back to RM, it should be around RM9,437?

even on plane, same theory applied, battery out and plug in. to prevent heat damage ur batteyr

cheers bro....i hope i can get it on time before i fly....gonna be a 12 hour flight from here to Frankfurt....kinda dreading to go there though...D:!

ughh.. even I practise not leaving the battery in my laptop it still seem to cause problem?? I get sudden hibernation at 40-50%??

I've tried recalibariting, reformating.. all fail.. huhu no time to send for warranty d.. If battery problem sure no more warranty..

Just got my Alienware M17x-R3 First game on my list is The Witcher
