hi, all sifus, i think my m11x right speaker is blown and needs to be fixed.

Have any of u guys repair the speaker before, how much does it cost ? As my set already ran out of warranty period.

Thank you very much

p.s. not driver problem as i reinstalled few times d, bios beep sound only came out of one side too

both my monitor and laptop arrive already, the free monitor just arrived today

first time using this powerful laptop, even during games can multitask do other stuff....

Wah ... I didn't receive any single thing yet =.=

My desktop and monitor now seems stuck at Kuching Hub since last Thursday =.=
Dunno why they want to arrange only deliver to my area on this Friday.

Means i can only received on next Monday

Should be easy to replace. Problem is getting the parts. Try look at ebay.

Read from some reviews that the speakers are soldered to the motherboard, anyone can clarify ? and where eould u guys suggest for fixing/installing the speakers

Now that's something new to me. Look up the service manual.
Mine R2 has only 1 screw holding down each speaker.

Checked, my speakers are holded by screws only, but i have no confident to tear down the laptop haha, any recommended technicians ?

Where are you staying in?

I only go to a computer shop that I am confident he has handled Alienware before. It is not easy to tear it down.

I am sure thr must be various online videos on how to tear it down, my suggestion is to do it yourself.. ull learn a thing or two from it which will be beneficial too

I can open M17xR4 easily, Done it a lot of times.

I can try, no problem, just that the speakers are not easy to obtain

try ebay.com. Or get the quotation from dell first.. see whr u can find them cheaper.

alright, thanks for the suggestion, will try to call them tomorrow

Hi, guys. Just curious about one thing.

Will the Custom unbox our things when it reach Malaysia? Since the product/Alienware is kinda expensive also.

Hate to say it, but I dislike unsealed thing, haha ...

everything is sealed..

guys, i am interested in getting an Alienware.

currently using a Dell lappie but forgot the model. its an 15".

May I know which Alienware lappie do you guys recommend.

I'm also not too sure about the prices so do update me on the latest price too.

Not aiming to get a too big lappie.

Do Alienware have 15"?

Alienware once have M15X which is 15" laptop but it has discontinued.

If you not aiming for big lappie, then M14X would be your choice

Other than that are M17X and M18X.

M18X not available on dell site FYI.

I see.

What's the difference between the M14X and M17X?

apart from screen size.

And do you know the prices for both M14X and M17X?

M17X or M18X are PURE gaming latops with specially high end GPUs like Nvidia 680M or AMD 7970M, although on M18X you can use your GPU in SLI mode that means 2 same GPU cards working together for better performance.

M14x on other had is a mid range gaming laptop with Nvidia 650M GPU the highest it can support, this is because the graphics card is soldered on to the motherboard.

Now it depends on you, are u the person who likes to do a lot of gaming n likes to do upgrade every year or so in order to meet the requirements of new high end games to get better performance and visuals or you are the guy who just plays DOTA2 and HoN and similar games + u like portability etc. For the second option ill recommend M14x or you can get M17X with you're an enthusiast gamer.

Hope that answers ur question. You can ask any question over here or for more better details u can PM or whats ap me.

and depends on your budget too tbh

I see. Thank you for the thorough explanation.

But whats the prices for both the laptops?

Actually I'm more of a Dota player and also use it for work.

So I'll most likely be going for the M14X. But I need to know the price.
