Alienware m17 R4, 17.3 inch FHD (Full HD) Gaming Laptop - Intel Core i7-10870H, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 6GB GDDR6, Windows 10 Home - Lunar Light

Great video quality and sound. Performs well. I have two fans under it to dissipate the heat.

I have used this laptop for over 12 hours now of MAX graphics settings on 'New World' (the MMORPG) and it runs like a charm. And this is WHILE I was also inside a Discord voice server... So basically, nothing can stop me haha.I highly recommend this laptop.It feels and looks sleek. And even though it's quite large, I just got myself a airport carry-on backpack meant to carry 17 inch laptops, and it fits in there perfectly fine.I honestly haven't tried doing much else with the laptop yet, but I can't imagine anything posing a problem.One side feature I really appreciate is that you can customize the RGB color of LEDs for the Keyboard, Alienware Logo on the back, and the vent-grille LED border thing - this means I can do some relief lighting against my wall near my monitor setup just by changing what colors my laptop is shooting out back there!

Plays everything I want to play at a graphic’s level that looks wonderful msfs2020 plays beautifully as well as all other games I’ve played nothing negative to say about this system also amazing vr compatibility I love itI will retire it tho and build my first desktop next gen:. and preserve this as my mobile gaming system…what a system GTAV,RDR2 MSFS2020 and any independent steam game I’ve played all run beautifully

It will play any game you can purchase. And I am not talking about fortnite and minecraft. Of course, it can play those games. But if you're a hardcore gamer looking for a good laptop, you're looking for something that can play Red Dead Redemption 2, Control, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, GTA5 (with stacked mods for offline use), etc. etc.,,, The only drawback is you probably want a laptop cooling fan/pad to go below it. It runs hard between 70-80 degrees (C). But it can spike up to the 90's during serious intense gameplay and you don't want that. The internal fusion/fan settings can mitigate most of it. But an extra, external fan doesn't hurt.

I downloaded all the windows updates and then proceeded to the Alienware command center to download any other additional updates, turned on gsync on the Nvidia control panel and made sure my settings were all running correctly... unfortunately about every 5 - 10 minutes when gaming (halo , and other java games) the screen would flicker and tear horizontally for a few seconds. I tried pressing on the corners to see if it was an internal issue or maybe a bad LCD panel and I could not repeat the event. very unfortunate … otherwise a 5/5 product. Returning it today hopefully will reorder and have better luck. Note: the screen tear only happened on the main laptop screen display, not on my external monitor that I had the HDMI cable hooked up to, I even switched HDMI cables to cover that base with no success.

This laptop is my first ever purchase from the Alienware brand and I can say that I am thoroughly impressed with this beast! And that's what it is, a beast! I have no issues running all my games. The sound quality is pretty great and the performance is just outmatched compared to anything I've ever used! A very happy customer here for sure!

Excellent computer so far. The battery life isn't amazing but it's a gaming computer. I does put out a lot of heat so I would get a cooling pad. We used it with an occulus with no issues as well. Battery life and heat are the only reasons I have it less than 5 stars.

I have no idea how excellent (or not) this machine is, but my son (whom it was a gift for) absolutely loves it. He's a gamer and says this is a fantastic machine. He loves the screen and its refresh rate.
