Probably not as bad as if you were trying to play maxed out Crysis

The CPU gets real hot under load, sometimes up to 100C, but if you power/temp limit, turn up fans and don't use Cinebench all day it's fine. This one has 144Hz screen so with G-Sync on it's easier on the CPU. The graphics card typically stays under 70C so that's a plus

It runs quite hot if that's a concern

Replace the damn Dell thermal paste and drops temps on the cpu by 10 and the house by 5. I had to do this on my Dell G7 to stop throttling.

It's not upgradable, the RAM is soldered on.

Beware, Alienware m15 R6 with 11 gen 10nm tige lake H intel cpu will be there in a week or two, performance wise, should be better than those 14nm+++ if you care much about CPU performance.

What's most intriguing is optional 240Hz QHD and possible swappable memory slot, just like what they did on m15 R5 Ryzen series.

You'll really regret getting an Alienware anyways best to stay away from them.

Why's that? I've heard they're solid and, though expensive, have good value for the price
