For Sale/For Free: m15x Alienware Parts

My reputation on these boards speak for themselves

Spring Sale: Well recently I came across a broken Alienware (It couldn't charge up) I coudl have repaired it but I didn't necessarily want 2 m15x's so I ended up parting it out and selling the parts for a great price to other members in the forums, like $50 for a T9600 and 150 for a 9800m GT, and $100 for the m15x Matte Screen WUXGA.

So anyways, These are what's lefter over, and these parts are FREE, you must pay shipping but otherwise the parts are just the cost of shipping. Maybe a $2-3 tip would be nice, but please only take these parts if you need them.

I have also recently upgraded my desktop so those parts are $25 WHOLE THING, THE WHOLE LOT! (4 gigs, Pc 3200 DDR2)





And now for the free Parts:

M15x non-illuminated keyboard:


Touchpad:


Back Piece:

LCD Invertor:

Hinges (Someone should definitely need these):


Lastly, I have a motherboard but in all honesty I wanted to keep this to future proof my system, but if someone out there is in a deep Desire to have this and NEEDS IT, for their system I'll part with it for $125. These are extrmely rare and hard to get and at this price point I hardly think it's a ripoff, let me know if you think otherwise I'll welcome thread crapping ;P cause my prices here are next to free.


Now clearly I'm not trying to make a profit here, and I'm trying to help out the community that's provided alot for me, so please don't take these parts unless you require them. And lastly the Proof of Ownership Pics










Have a good Day and God Bless.

I'm an honest person, and I'm going to be very honest about this to you. YOu need to buy this system in it's entirety not build it, you won't save anything and if you were able to save something it won't be worth it because you can buy the system new for around 800, or so cash. The only way this works out for you is if you can get a high-end MXM 2.1 GPU, which are getting harder and more expensive every passing day. The screen alone and the casing for the screen for the m15x is easily around 400 on average. Maybe 300. GPU can run you another 300 easily if you go with a highend. Now you've already hit 600 and it just isn't cost effective. That's why when I got this PC I scrapped it for parts and sold them off to people piece by piece rather then fixing it because 800 is just too low.

This is the problem with older PC's, unlike cars they don't retain value what-so-ever they may hold value better then most but they don't hold value strong enough to justify building ground up, even if I give you these parts free.

Oh and the link, before you yell or scream "What EBAY!??!?!" have a look at the seller and understand this PC is new with a 30 day warranty, there couldn't be a better Ebay Seller out there, Fed Ex Ground

Lastly if you really need to know for yourself this is the deal breaker on everything as to fixing the PC yourself, http://cgi.ebay.com/Alienware-Area-5...item563aa69333

They are defective and they break easily, hinge cracking is Notorious so I highly suggest you buy new. And I haven't been able to find a decent price anywhere for this part, I have heard stories of Epoxy, but if you run an Epoxy method you will never be able to change out and several parts will be down forever, lost forever. More of a loss then a Gain In my personal opinion and why I didn't do it on mine, well I also have a warranty on mine through Alienware.

Yeah this isn't really a Great PC to work on, it's Doable but it's very sensitive and fragile from my experiences. Also from my experiences I believe it to be too sensitive and too much of a risk to work on with no backup or warranty behind it to build from the ground up. The touchkeys are wishey washey and often malfunction on users based on the charge levels and the whole switching from Dedicated to Integrated GPU although in theory is nice, it's not exactly ideal, but then again my experiences resulted from having a defective/destroyed or ruined motherboard which went on to ruin my SSD drive. After I replaced my motherboard the system was awesome and Alienware listed that motherboard at $450 which is now attached to my "My Hive" information. And the primary reason why I'm sitting with this motherboard right now for that slight chance of it happening again.

Since then ALienware has learned to make the touchkeys separate from the motherboard, avoiding the huge costs surrounded behind them, like my current m17x-R2. Love Live the Alien

MXM card sold fast, it was a 9800m GT, the inverter cable and Heatsink for the MXM card are still available

Yea that's fine paypal me a Dollar and its yours

The wifi card and the ram were sold off to Mexico for liek 15-25 dollars. Sorry, I helped out some less fortunate teen down there and decided to give him the wifi card free of charge.

Motherboard Sold, and Buyer Received it and it's working GREAT FOR HIM! Just saved an m15x from the dumps.

Ok so basically here the update as of September 2010. Almost all parts were sold I think Keyboard was left but I think it got tossed with the trash. So what remains is a spare normal battery. Hinges got sold and shipped last week, Apologize in advance for today the holiday and perhaps delayed arrival for the part.

Lastly, I have for my own m15x system a casing I think for the drive, meaning you can get you own optical inside of it left.

For my own parts which I DO NOT want to part with I have the secondary modular battery, Blu Ray Drive, and 3 AC Adapters.

Scratch that I'd be willing to part with one of the AC adapters I don't necessarily need 3.

The Modular Bay parts you're asking for are rather easy to get ahold of if you search EBay, however the BAttery is REALLY hard to get IMO. I emptied out my piggy bank to get that one, literally.... (Lol I emptied out a 2 liter vodka bottle full of coins and used that to purchase the modular battery from Alienware Outlet)

I'm wrong don't get it, the fact that it says m11x actually worries me now and I just realized that they still call the newer alienware the (non area 51 m15x) Still a m15x to confuse the hell out of me and you when looking for parts. I think they refer it to the All Power m15x or something like that. I tihnk it's for the later. So if you're using the one I have don't get this, hold on I'll find one for ya that's workable.

roughly the same price. The way it looks and because they use the word Caddy, leads me to belive this is the correct one.
