The first few years after Dell bought out Alienware noone knew a thing. There was almost no sign that Alienware wasn't an independent company. When I ordered my m9700 back in 2007, I had no clue they were affiliated with dell. Dell still...

I applied some new thermal paste before selling my G50 and I blew out the dust with my compressor so I even took out the ram. I went to turn it on after and OMG the screen is black but I hear the hdd bootup and the trackpad, and asus...

LMAO dude the m15x R2 is a completely redesigned cooling system from what I have seen. It is based on the same cooling from the m17x R2. The R2 gets temps on sli 260ms of about 79C high load. M15x should be about the same.

Heres my current setup. Loved it but now the need for a bigger lcd comes to thought.

My honest opinion, Used this laptop is worth around $900- maybe $1000. Try Starting bid $900 on ebay.

LOL Asus experimented with the W90 and failed horribly. Asus engineers just cant seem to find a proper way to cool off their systems. Anyways yea as long as you are within your 1 year warranty, you can upgrade it anytime from what I have...

Ugh the $300 upgrade to it pushes me away. After a few months are up I'll probbably add the next 3 years to it.

Ooo wow so I'm probably better off sticking with my x9100 pushing 3.44ghz. Can't wait to see some 3dmark CPU scores dude keep me posted!

I never fully understood how i7 cpus work. Example using a 720qm. Can all four cores crank up to 2.8ghz?

No fsb on them. They situate from a set speed like say the 820 is 1.73 it can go up to 3.02 when under stress. It can't be overclocked or set to stay at 3.02 permamently. Only the 920qm can be set to 3.2 at al times.
