Can only enjoy so so graphics on AAA games cuz im on 1060 only. Hahah

If give liquid metal to dell engineer they can apply or not?

Also if I buy alienware with the 120hz gsync tn panel, and later want to change to normal ips or Oled should be no problem right? Or does it need to be gsync compatible also?

I believe they can apply but the risk is there. You should know a bit mistakes your board/chips/processor will fried. It is 'metal' in liquid form though.

Check on the Net regarding how to paste with LM before u proceed.

Sad not available for Alienware 13 R3

Booted up my laptop today and got a heart attack, screen was black, look closely the screen is on just no backlight, had to hard restart the pc then only it turn on, should I be worried?

Buy from where? Already updated drivers+OS?

From Shopee but reputable store with physical shop.
I updated my wireless card driver, graphics card driver. I remember someone said up there don't update bios cause will cause overheating problem

My screen will do this from time to time. It won't display anything waking up after hibernation. Close the lid (it'll hibernate) and turning it back on again do the trick. Anyone experiencing the same thing?

So it happens again. I really hate this model line. ARGHHHH SO EFFIN FRAGILE!

Duh. AW13R3? Mine still feel solid. Or could be that area too hot until some point it breaks like that?

Hi guys, I just bought an Alienware 15 R3.

Temperatures for CPU & GPU were horrendous initially after playing 15 mins of f****** lightweight Overwatch.

CPU: 100 degrees
GPU: 93 degrees

Called Dell and ordered them to replace my heatsink and fans (I was basically barking orders on the phone). Technician shows up the next day with parts.

He told me the older 2016 - 2017 fans had an older design and it is installed onto the laptop subframe whereas new 2018 fans are attached to the heatsink assembly instead. Unfortunately, the replacement heatsink ships with stock thermal paste from the factory so I couldn't use my Arctic thermal paste.

Temperatures after heatsink and 2 fans replacement substantially dropped. Tested Witcher 3 and Far Cry 5.

CPU: 80 - 83 degrees
GPU: 71 - 73 degrees


Benchmark scores
3dmark Firestrike: 10,080
Superposition 1080p Extreme: 2115
CINEBENCH R15: 710

As I'm typing this, I noticed that there are 2 buttons that do not register. Absolutely love the laptop overall but Dell has really SHITTY QC. Dell should sack or torture their QC personnel for committing crimes against humanity.
