Anyone could tell me how much the Alienware M17x?
My friend told me M17x i7 3740 2TB GTX 660 need rm6300!

If i were you, chat with the sales person and ask him the configuration you want.

For example, this machine - E-Value Code: V510516MYWIN8

This is an Alienware M17x R4 With Specs Below:
500GB HDD ( Single Only ) - You can buy SSD later.
Video Card - GTX 660M
RAM - 6GB

This machine is 5,999 RM, now if you chat with the support person give him the evalue code then tell him the changes

for example, change video card to AMD 7970 M, RAM to 8GB

They will give you quotation, thats how i got my cheapest m17x r4.. haha.. goodluck! thumbup.gif

Hey guys, I got really noob question and I want to double check.

I lost my original OS CD (window 7 home) that come along when I bought my 15x. Now I want to format+ re install window on my lappy. At the moment, I only have unused window 7 ultimate installation CD. Can I use that CD to install new window on my lappy? Thnks in advance!
*
Yes as long as the windows 7 has valid product key.

Received my alienware M14x r2 yesterday. had a white/stuck pixel at bottom right corner, only visible when on bright screen. and the button "V" on keyboard is abit slanted. but works fine. oh well, i guess i have to live with it.
but anyways, anyone runing dota 2 max settings at 60 fps? i have to turn off some graphics options in dota 2 to run it around 45-55 fps.

when it was on max settings, fps was generally 40-50. during fighting scene fps drop to 30-40. driver is 307 from dell. i updated to 310.90 from nvidia and it appears to be worse. help sad.gif
*
Is vsync on? mine is running on max settings. 60 fps - 1080p, but im on m17x r4 though..

yeap i did, i tried reinstalling all the drivers, and etc. none worked. sad that such an expensive alienware system cant run dota 2 smoothly maxed out.

Are you sure that the card being used is the 650M and not the onboard?

Off vsync, Off AA. ( Update direct x if possible )

Or try this also

Open the “nVidia Control Panel” from your start menu.
On the lefthand side, under “Select a task…”
Open the “3D Settings” tree, and select “Manage 3D Settings”
On the righthand panel, click the “Program Settings” tab.
Under “1. Select a program…”, click “Add”, navigate to your installation folder and navigate to the application / exe file.
Under “2. Select the preferred graphics…”, choose “High-performance NVIDIA processor”
Then (VERY IMPORTANT!) click “Apply” in the bottom right.
Launch the game.

guys, i just check dell's website. there's a new bios for my m17x-r3, the A12, the current is A10. is it necessary to update it.

any of u guys update this?
*
no its not really necessary unless there is an issue with you're machine, because this update can cause the machine to malfunction and its not like windows update or any other software update.
