They make sense for people who need to move their PC every few weeks or months, like students in dorms or travelling workers who move to a new site periodically. Otherwise they're pointless though, I prefer having a good desktop and a slim laptop.

/g/ is only for linux's poortards, win's pajeets and mac's shills, they don't like gamers here (sad thing is 97% of /g/ are closet gamers)

Be careful with the power supply connection to the laptop, it tends to break on Alienware, besides this enjoy your new laptop.

I have a last years alienware R2 13 inch, its pretty OP for its size. a i7 and a 960m in that form factor is crazy.
The build quality is better then Asus and MSI I have tried using, the only questions is that if its worth the price. If u have the money, why not.

>>61481810
An ASUS GW was my last top from 2015 but it had one infuriating design flaw: the power socket breaks and becomes loose every 6 months or so and I have to pay like £80 to get it fixed each time. I'm not getting it fixed another time.

I suspect it's because the port is right next to the fan which does get hot and probably interferes with the adhesive.

I move it at least once a month, if not more, with two of my monitors and all.
I just happen to organize events with an association I have and we have some LAN parties and such.

I would say gaming laptops are for people who REALLY want to play games (otherwise you could get something with a discrete GPU) and doesn't have space for anything or a budget that small that wouldn't leave them to upgrade anytime soon.

At that price, I'd have gone for the Alienware 13 with the OLED panel.

I know what you mean because I've lived with a 128 for two years. I'm getting 256 now.

Plus it will have a 1TB HDD and I have external drives for back up.
>>61484037
I'd be interesting in seeing your results. Mind you I was fucked up on alcohol and diazepam at time of purchase. However the diazepam may have been counterfeit or were a lower dose than they were sold for because I took 100 x 10MG in less 24 hours and barely felt that tired. I have been clumsy though as you can see in my earlier posts.

It was and I played Portal 2 and Grey Goo and shit. It played Crysis 3 too but I wasn't really inter it. I wasn't joking about being autistic and I was only meming when I posted cosy pepe. I see a social worker and will be seeing a wellbeing coach next to help me with independence and employment.

Here's a link to it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00UAT7H7

I'm using it now because I temporarily managed to get the plug in.

>>61484125
Don't know if this is true. Anyway of fixing/counter this?

Doesn't look too bad to me but I don't intend in showing it to anyone anyway.

If you're going to spend this much on a laptop you might as well just get an Asus Zephyr.

It's a recommendation for an actually good overpriced gaming laptop.
>>
>>61480716
I find the Alienware aesthetic apalling but I like their hardware and customer service. I use an Alienware Alpha (the first model, not the one they have now) under my television as a streaming/emulation box and it works great. Even came with a controller and adapter, not bad for $500 really.

A friend of mine had his processors liquid cooling shit out on him and the Alienware tech showed up next day and replaced the whole area even upgraded his processor free of charge.

>>61484516
That's cool. If it's any consolation, I may be getting my own place soon (assisted living or cancel no doubt) and employment. I having experience experimenting with programming and shit so I will try my hardest not to let you down, anon.

>$3000 for an unupgradeable machine
for the same amount of money you can get an infinitely more powerful desktop build + still have enough left over to get a decent laptop for work/school.
>>
>>61484683
The point is the gaming laptop is a portable desktop

It's only $150 less, but unless Dell's stuff it comes without any bloatware.
Oh, also, this one is only 15". So I guess your Alienware isn't such an awful deal.
>>
>>61484927
>still have enough left over to get a decent laptop for work/school.
$1300 is more than enough to get a 1060 or even 1070 laptop, or you could completely throw your money away on a single machine that will degrade in performance a year after you buy it.
