hay i just orderd the ailenware m17x with 8gb of ram a razer mamba mouse and a nividea graphics card the best one they had how long will it take because its just regular shipping please reply back
@flamini2010 ...You are looking at the entry level M17XR3 for $1499. Though I purchased mine over a year ago, it was upgraded on several levels. First the screen is 1920x1200 vs. the standard 1600x900..this alone put you at the $1799 starting point. then upgrade to 8GB RAM, 1TB hard drive, more powerful wireless card, etc and you are up to $2200 current. The single slot blue ray burner/reader option I have is not even offered anymore would be another $200+. Prices haven't really changed.
@KSQPhotography i dont care about the ram and stuff if i get the 1799$ one or the 1499$ one will it run GOOOD HIGH QUALITY VERY HIGH QUALITY games??? please reply
@AlienTechProductions come on guy, im not too fond of americans, but you gotta admit, they do make the best technology, i mean thats why your here looking at this video right.
@Jetbus90 ..Yes it still performs great, except for the small thing I mentioned on one of my comments, in which it sometimes gives me a blue screen when I bump it or set it down too hard. Not sure why this happens. This is the only small issue I have had with it in over a year of ownership. I am actually about to but an alienware desktop since I have been really pleased with the laptop.
So after over a year of owning this laptop there is only one complaint that I have. There is this wierd tendancy for the computer to get the "blue screen of death" when you accidently bump it too hard. I unsually notice this if I am moving my laptop from one place to another and set it down too hard. This doesn't happen often since I don't move the laptop around when it is turned on very much but it can be annoying. Anyone ever heard of something like this?
@Galaxygamestorm yeah it stinks I wish they had it at bestbuy but if they DID have it there it would give you the lowest possible specs since you can change them on the website and I did (which added 500 dollars... lol) but yeah lol :D
@Galaxygamestorm well they don't have it at best buy but if they DID it would be cheap. Where I live (in New Jersey) there is only one store in the WHOLE state that sells Alienware laptops and desktops and that's in North Jersey or three hours from where I live AND it would be the lowest specs so I bought mine online I'm not sure what state you live in but I would think it would be the same situation. Sadly you can only really get it online.
@lilburn1998 ... I am not sure what you are asking exactly....But, yes you get all of the items that I showed on the video (at least I did when I purchased mine about a year ago).
People keep asking me how much this cost. I recommend anyone who want to know should go to the dell website and go through the steps to build themselves a system like this or even better (I bought this almost a year ago now). Then you will see exactly how much they are depending on the options you choose. You can even save the specs on the dell website for a certain amount of time.
I plan on getting the m17x but how much dose a labtop like this go for? Is this more expensive than a other labtops or are they around the same price.
@luirodriguez9 ...I have no job. I just found those scrubs lying on the side of the road and decided to put them on. I was unaware that they were something a doctor might wear. I am glad to have all of the comments on here to educate me to this fact. Thanks!
I have seen dozens of these unboxings, and this by far was my favorite, you knew what you were saying well enough to be informal but not so much as you were trying to sell the computer, the camera quality was superb, i didn't take you 3 minutes to open the box, and you cut right to the point. Great job man.
@TheReubenCooper .. at first I wasn't sure what you were talking about. But tried it and almost fell out of my chair laughing when I saw the translation. Very amusing.
@FullM3tal7ack3t ...That sucks..send it back. That's technology for you though. No matter what brand you buy of pretty much anything, there are going to be "bad eggs". I know it is frustrating,as I have been in your shoes with other products that I have purchased. I don't think it is correct however to make a blanket judgment about a product based on a few bad experiences. I hope Dell takes care of you though, as they should.
@KSQPhotography i sent it back, and they said, they're out of cases, so i'll have to wait, do you know if i can get my money back ?, because i want to buy an asus g73, since asus has better support than dell, and btw im not saying that alienware sucks, but dell does....
@FullM3tal7ack3t ... Well I am not sure if they will refund your money but sounds like your situation would warrant it if they do. They would probably try to hit you with some sort of restocking fee or something. I would call and tell them you want a refund since they can not provide you with a replacement now. That is not acceptable! You can even say that you need it for your job or something like that which would imply to urgency of getting it now. Good luck!
I hate when a buy something and they get sent through USPS or FedEx. UPS is better cause they just leave the package no matter what size. Gotta love logistics!
FYI for anyone who might be wondering... I still love my laptop after all the time I have owned and have had NO problems with it thus far. My mother-in-law even bought her one for photo editing and because she was very impressed with the screen clarity. I am sure others have similar screen resolution, but that was a real selling point for her.
@gauravjit100... simple.. I have, currently am, and probably always will be a PC guy. Just a personal preference though I know many or even most professional photographers/videographers prefer Mac systems. Who knows, maybe one day I will try a mac but probably not :)
@gauravjit100 just for even suggesting getting a piece of shit mac that is badly specked which could be build better and cheaper by a 14 yr old....i will kill you
@tyberzann00 ...I guess so since you are calling it crappy and I have been happy with mine. But I have no personal experience with the macbook pro so I can't say for sure.
@itsurdaddy456 ... Yes the laptop is very fast and "made for gaming" with options for expanded RAM and dual video cards. As far as web usage, the specs on this computer are overkill for the requirement needed for smooth internet surfing...so yes it will be more than adequate for these needs. It would be a great laptop for a hardcore gamers (especially with optional dual video cards) or for those like me who do lots of video/photo editing and some gaming.
@itsurdaddy456, I would imagine those specs would be fine for most gaming. I guess it partially depends on the type of games you play whether or not you would benefit from more...but I would think you would be pretty happy with performance for most gaming. Just my opinion... Other gamers out there should feel free to chime in here since I am not a big PC gamer myself.
hey nice lappy .. i'm about to purchase one of these gaming laptops .. but i don't know wich .. i'm sticked between these 3 .. m17x , qosmio x505-q898 and a clevo x7200 .. m17x i740QM dual 5870M , qosmio x505 i740QM single 460M and the clevo x7200 comes whit i960QM dual 460 or 485 .. wich one u think worth spend 3K ?
@ksqphotography lol the d or com trick jas been around for ages comes from old school mmos and the photo site is awesome IMO you should add reviews to the list I'm currently working on a Leo leport type of show :)
Ok now im curious what do you do *Hd video editing/ Photoshopping for?
Do you run a website? reason why im asking is because this is one of my favorite unboxing vids ive seen *strait to the point* and i would not mind hosting your vids &a link to your site *if that applys* on my site modtv1337 d ot com
@modtv1337 ..Well since many people have asked due to the scrubs, yes I am a physician and I technically do not run a website. Rather, digital photography is my main hobby...see my other video showing off some of my gear :) So the photo editing is for that. And I own an HD video camera that I own for family, friends, and trips. I enjoy turning these video clips into DVD or now Blue Ray movies..do a bit of editing and adding a soundtrack, etc. Nothing too major though...
@modtv1337 I wanted a laptop that could handle using adobe photoshop CS5, adobe premiere pro, and the rest of the master collection. So far I have been very happy with the purchase. I do host my photos on a site and have a photography blog if you are interested in checking it out. You can google KSQPhotography and likely find both or one is ksqphotography d ot wordpress d ot com and other ksqphotography d ot zenfolio d ot com
@modtv1337 Also.. I am glad to have seen how you are able to "secretly" post websites! It has been frustrating that you tube will not allow you to post them even on your own postings. I had never tried the "d ot" trick....very nice
@stijnxd .. Actually I should know my own system and I do! My system DOES have a Blue Ray reader and writer. It writes at 4x (slow) but does the job. I have used it extensively so far to create HD home videos for my PS3 and to back up the tons of photos I take every year. Instead of using numerous DVD's to back up my photos, I was able to do it on only a couple Blue Rays. So you should get all your facts straight before you make a statement like that. In your defense...
@stijnxd ... Well it's just a matter of them no longer offering the same option. I am not sure why they changed things, as I have had not problems with mine. This first came to my attention when my mother-in-law went to order hers a couple of months ago and it was no longer an option.
I just checked the Dell website and it appears that they are no longer offering the Blue Ray option that I chose when I purchased mine (almost a year ago!). It was called the "313-8570 Slot-Loading Dual Layer Blu-ray Burner (BR-R, DVD+-RW, CD-RW)" and was a $350 upgrade. So again, make sure you know all your fact befor you make an assumption. You know what they say about when you "ASSUME".. it makes an "ASS" of "U" and "ME"
@NukanDukan Sorry it goes with the job. I had just come home from the hospital when it arrived and wanted to do a unboxing immediately with my "new toy"
You sound like ChillaFrilla :P Oh also, on the recovery Cd, does it have command centre on it? Because I plan to upgrade my boot drive to an Ssd and I dont want to lose Command Centre.
@SpankingFob Honestly, I don't know what te recovery disk have on it. I know that Dell cutomer service can help you reinstall a few things from their website and I would assume that would be one of them. For example, my original version of CyberLink PowerDVD 8 was having a few issues, so the person helped me reinstall it. I think there was a limit of the number of times this could be done...three was the magic number I remember.
I just bought one, but it won't be in until January and I was wondering how do you turn on turbo mode for the processor? And how do you switch over from integrated graphics to discrete graphics?
@blake2142 . It has a normal functioning "slot" to insert you CDs. DVD, Blue Rays, etc. I am not familiar with the M11x so I am unaware of these stipulations that you mentioned.
I just got one too, and I'm in the process of wiping it and reinstalling the OS and drivers. I have had some issues figuring out the install order for drivers, so it's hard to comment on the performance of the machine that much yet. I have my fingers crossed though...
Hey man really appreciate this detailed and clear video of the unboxing :) was having a dilemma of whether or not to chose it to get it for my school work and gaming experience, after using it how was the feedback or experience from the alienware? anyone out there whom might have used this laptop too? would really appreciate first hand information from the users :) thanks a million!
@gongster1818... I have had no problems with mine over the past several months. In fact my mother-in-law is also getting one since she it into photo and video editing, and wants a powerful computer to do it. Overall, I have no complaints and it has met my expectations. I will be honest that I probably don't push the laptop when it comes to the latest games because I am not a big PC gamer. It does handle massive armies on Age of Empires III rather well (only game I play on it)
@bolpkia951, I am not sure if this is a serious question or not, but of course you can put discs in the laptop. Mine can read and write Blue Rays, DVDs, and CDs. There is a slit on the right side of the laptop where you put it in, not a pop out tray like many other laptops.
@KSQPhotography haha i had a m1730 after around 3 weeks the dvd drive didnt work and now thanks to that and a few other falt they are giving me a new 1.6 gh m17x never realy missewd the dvd that much...
you are correct that I am wearing a "doctor's outfit"..aka "scrubs. Whether I am a doctor or just like comfortable pajama-like clothing is yet to be determined.

@itsurdaddy456, I would imagine those specs would be fine for most gaming. I guess it partially depends on the type of games you play whether or not you would benefit from more...but I would think you would be pretty happy with performance for most gaming. Just my opinion... Other gamers out there should feel free to chime in here since I am not a big PC gamer myself.

@tyberzann00 Depends on what you do. Overall, I think a Mac wins out. However, obviously, a native Windows machine would fair better in gaming.

Ok now im curious what do you do *Hd video editing/ Photoshopping for?
Do you run a website? reason why im asking is because this is one of my favorite unboxing vids ive seen *strait to the point* and i would not mind hosting your vids &a link to your site *if that applys* on my site modtv1337 d ot com
modtv1337 1 year ago
@modtv1337 ..Well since many people have asked due to the scrubs, yes I am a physician and I technically do not run a website. Rather, digital photography is my main hobby...see my other video showing off some of my gear :) So the photo editing is for that. And I own an HD video camera that I own for family, friends, and trips. I enjoy turning these video clips into DVD or now Blue Ray movies..do a bit of editing and adding a soundtrack, etc. Nothing too major though...

@KSQPhotography so sexy... i just bought this yesterday and they are processing the payment right now... I CANT WAIT!!!
Urstupidumbass 1 year ago
@modtv1337 I wanted a laptop that could handle using adobe photoshop CS5, adobe premiere pro, and the rest of the master collection. So far I have been very happy with the purchase. I do host my photos on a site and have a photography blog if you are interested in checking it out. You can google KSQPhotography and likely find both or one is ksqphotography d ot wordpress d ot com and other ksqphotography d ot zenfolio d ot com

@modtv1337 Also.. I am glad to have seen how you are able to "secretly" post websites! It has been frustrating that you tube will not allow you to post them even on your own postings. I had never tried the "d ot" trick....very nice

blue ray reader only dude you should know that :/
stijnxd 1 year ago
@stijnxd .. Actually I should know my own system and I do! My system DOES have a Blue Ray reader and writer. It writes at 4x (slow) but does the job. I have used it extensively so far to create HD home videos for my PS3 and to back up the tons of photos I take every year. Instead of using numerous DVD's to back up my photos, I was able to do it on only a couple Blue Rays. So you should get all your facts straight before you make a statement like that. In your defense...
KSQPhotography 1 year ago
@KSQPhotography lol then dell should get it facts straight the side sais reader only lol
stijnxd 1 year ago
@stijnxd ... Well it's just a matter of them no longer offering the same option. I am not sure why they changed things, as I have had not problems with mine. This first came to my attention when my mother-in-law went to order hers a couple of months ago and it was no longer an option.
KSQPhotography 1 year ago
@KSQPhotography well I dont really need a writer so reading only is ok for me great unboxing review btw!
stijnxd 1 year ago
I just checked the Dell website and it appears that they are no longer offering the Blue Ray option that I chose when I purchased mine (almost a year ago!). It was called the "313-8570 Slot-Loading Dual Layer Blu-ray Burner (BR-R, DVD+-RW, CD-RW)" and was a $350 upgrade. So again, make sure you know all your fact befor you make an assumption. You know what they say about when you "ASSUME".. it makes an "ASS" of "U" and "ME"

You sound like ChillaFrilla :P Oh also, on the recovery Cd, does it have command centre on it? Because I plan to upgrade my boot drive to an Ssd and I dont want to lose Command Centre.
SpankingFob 1 year ago
@SpankingFob Honestly, I don't know what te recovery disk have on it. I know that Dell cutomer service can help you reinstall a few things from their website and I would assume that would be one of them. For example, my original version of CyberLink PowerDVD 8 was having a few issues, so the person helped me reinstall it. I think there was a limit of the number of times this could be done...three was the magic number I remember.

I just bought one, but it won't be in until January and I was wondering how do you turn on turbo mode for the processor? And how do you switch over from integrated graphics to discrete graphics?
blkadams450 1 year ago
so it's not like the M11x where you have to buy an usb disc driver to put your cd's in
you can just take your crysis cd and put it in right?
blake2142 1 year ago
@blake2142 . It has a normal functioning "slot" to insert you CDs. DVD, Blue Rays, etc. I am not familiar with the M11x so I am unaware of these stipulations that you mentioned.

I just got one too, and I'm in the process of wiping it and reinstalling the OS and drivers. I have had some issues figuring out the install order for drivers, so it's hard to comment on the performance of the machine that much yet. I have my fingers crossed though...

Hey man really appreciate this detailed and clear video of the unboxing :) was having a dilemma of whether or not to chose it to get it for my school work and gaming experience, after using it how was the feedback or experience from the alienware? anyone out there whom might have used this laptop too? would really appreciate first hand information from the users :) thanks a million!
gongster1818 1 year ago
@gongster1818... I have had no problems with mine over the past several months. In fact my mother-in-law is also getting one since she it into photo and video editing, and wants a powerful computer to do it. Overall, I have no complaints and it has met my expectations. I will be honest that I probably don't push the laptop when it comes to the latest games because I am not a big PC gamer. It does handle massive armies on Age of Empires III rather well (only game I play on it)

can you put dvd or cd in? like a disc.. cus my friend one..there is no like a hole to put in
bolpkia951 1 year ago
@bolpkia951, I am not sure if this is a serious question or not, but of course you can put discs in the laptop. Mine can read and write Blue Rays, DVDs, and CDs. There is a slit on the right side of the laptop where you put it in, not a pop out tray like many other laptops.
