QUOTE(refnulf @ Dec 11 2013, 12:47 AM) Only thing that pissed me off about the R4 was the ram slots under the keyboard. But everything else was fine. My R4 came with some of the screws with the groves worn. So I had trouble getting my ram in. Had Dell site fellas come and replace the screws after a while. just to share my experience on dismantling M18x (i think its the same as M17x). basically its just remove the back cover, the screws holding the keyboard cover and pry out the keyboard cover. then, unplug the shortcut keys cable and you are good to remove the keyboard. its practically not a hard job to access the RAM slots under the keyboard.

QUOTE(refnulf @ Dec 11 2013, 02:37 AM) That wasn't the hard part, the metal case covering the ram slots were. The screw grooves were totally dead I couldn't unscrew them and put the ram in  thats a hard job then. screws and grooves are vital, so they must be aligned properly upon tightening. if you feel hard when tightening the screws, you must remove the screw again and align it properly.

QUOTE(horns @ Dec 26 2013, 04:17 PM) they should have defined a 'gaming notebook' properly :/ (it's becoming one of the worst marketing gimmicks these days) a gaming laptop must be thick and has plenty of airflow, not thin and weak airflow. and totally agree with you, they are not defining a gaming laptop properly. Razer should just continue their gaming accessories business, not laptop.
