This is the latest Alienware 15" model with upgradable ram correct?

Edit:
Seems to be soldered on and the m15 r5 has the upgradable memory.

Dang!, that's a great price!. I'd be all over it if it was not for the soldered Ram that can't be expanded.. I returned the open box i got from Bestbuy for about $1500 2 weeks ago, though it had the 300Hz panel.... It's solid deal though if you're ok with 16gb ram...

I believe in general CB sites will not process orders that are made through EPP. I do not have personal experience since I've never attempted it before. I didn't want the CB site to deny my order for any reason. EPP with discount and CB would've only saved me ~$27 so I didn't risk it.

The upcoming M15 R6 for $1699 seems like a better deal: 11th gen CPU vs 10th gen, QHD 240Hz vs HD 144Hz, 1TB vs 512GB SSD, non-soldered RAM vs soldered, etc.

I had that one and ended up returning it and keeping a Asus G15. I read a bunch of reviews for 6700M vs 3070 laptops and usually the 3070 comes up on top for most gaming purposes, and since this one is a fully powered 140W version it will be an even bigger advantage. However the MSI was relatively small, compact, and light, the screen was nice and fast, the keyboard is comfortable to type on. If performance is what you are after I'd get the AW, but if you want a all around productivity machine that blends in well and still has gaming chops, the MSI is pretty good too. I ended up keeping the G15 mostly for charging via USB-C, which the MSI does not support, and also I got a great deal on the G15 via Bestbuy Open Box.

That is also a good deal which I'm also planning to get on. A few things to note is that the R4 does have a slightly more premium build, is thinner and lighter, and has vapor chamber cooling. The R6 will have a better CPU, screen, and RAM slots. I also didn't want to miss out on the 13% CB. Don't know what it will be on Friday but let's hope it's also good when the R6 goes live.

Please let me know how you get there from follow math?
$1600 - $160 (DPA10) = $1440 - $187 (CB) - $72 (Chase Offer) + $106 (tax) = $1287 (also receiving $43 in Dell Rewards)

Thank you so much!

Read the OP where I listed possible options to bring the cost down.

I agree. The only caveats are the 13% cash back and DPA10 code. Of course there has been 20% cash back on black friday in the past which would make this an exceptional deal if the DPA10 code is still active.
