I don't know why, but when I look at aw14. it looks like bigger nvidia shield.

haha yeah I had for of them for around 1 or 2 months, then I sold off one of em.. off course the lower spec one. But the lower spec also 3820QM and 7970M hhaha.

only if Nvidia shield had a fully working windows 8 pro then i would 100% agree

but sadly that one runs on android.

I am getting into windows 8 tablets. I wanna get one! I like the surface pro but I think I should wait for haswell to come on tablets. More batt life then

owh, why did you sell off the HD7970M option?

wanna use optimus so badly?

not really as on 3D screen optimus is literally disabled. Can't see intel GPU as all. I just wanted to see the difference between 7970M and 680M.

Do the 3D screen important if going to buy M17 ?

Not really
you can save quiet a lot of money if you go for without 3D. I got 3D one.. I used 3D a lot first month.. n now always without 3D haha.

Hmm... do u facing any heat problem on the surface of keyboard while playing game in full spec?

Confusing wanna get a alienware or not, the design is nice compare to other and the price also higher

hi all,

have been thinking for a while and i think i gonna get the new M14... just that i have a noob question about RAM.. dell provide a 8gb ram... can i upgrade to 16gb next time?

thank you

edit: i saw @xandman askign the same question a few page before... still new i guess... now only DELL put up another 2 m14 option...

according to some videos....
everything is upgradeable....
so i guess it's a yes...
=)

But they say only use DDR3L....Not the cheaper DDR3
Now that I dunno how true it is....

UPDATE:

Status: In Production.

the keyboard will be warm only if the laptop is under load.
my suggestion is if you can omit the design, you can buy one with better specs and higher performance than Alienware 14, the Lenovo Y500.

i dont agree with the fact because everything is considered that even the GPU is upgradeable. keep in mind that the Alienware 14 is not using MXM module, it uses soldered board.

ya man.. bring it back to the dealer in lowyat. they should at least take the courtesy to serve/help their customer.
i would bring it back to them if its < 30 days.

spending huge sum of money on a broken item is no fun at all.

If u have the cash then go for aw m17. Just dun get the 3d one. The temperature s are good.

y500 is an option... but better wait for y510p right...
either way... alienware always on my wish list since.. forever... hehehehe...

the problem is i love the design of alienware, because it's like no other laptop ~
waiting them let us to customize the laptop, so that can change graphic card to 680 xD and add ram on it
it is good?

Planing buy a laptop can use for at least 5 years

Anybody using the latest 14" with haswell.? Thinking of getting this but not much review on it.

You mean to the 780M?

Only famous product reviewers will get their hands on one since it's still new

hmm well m14x R2 Heat and noise is normal... i dunno new one... if you on the budget why not have look at New Asus G750 RM5,999.00 or new Illegear notebook
