The 12% capital one Spring code also works with this deal taking it down to $1336 (12% off vs $50). Combine that with 4% cash back and the 120 AMEX and you have a nice little deal.

Apparently, Alienware gimped the 3070's in their r5 lineup. Expect a reduction in performance. https://youtu.be/M42C0HggnFo

That already been addressed by BIOS update, also they provided mux switch in BIOS update too as well as increase 3070 TGP from 125w to 130w.

I got in on the m15r4 variation of this laptop last month. I ended up returning it. Had Micron vram. It could only hit 59.5Mhs which I had no problem with. The problem lies in it being unable to go any lower than 125W, which runs damn hot so the cooling fan has to be on 100% of the time. People use the term jet engine loosely when describing fan noise but I could hear this laptop's fan running from a few rooms down the hall.
I held back on it because of that. I kept hearing on different subreddits that it ran very very hot. I understand it's a gaming laptop but it's not a SUPER DUPER gaming laptop and I expected to still be able to just do internet surfing on it without working about overheating.

That's way more expensive, doesn't have secondary functions backlit, and has NO QHD displays. And it's overpriced

Alienware is poor.

Other than that how does it handle when it comes to thermals. The 11th gen and 12th gen need better thermals than anything. So who does thermals better legion or Alienware or somebody else

Can flash the 140w BIOS from the r4 if the GPU thermals are good or you repaste. QHD display is very nice too.

Do not buy a dell Alienware. They have problems recognizing USB 3.0. 2.0 works but Dell is bad news.

You need a 17"?

Legion 7's, GE76's, handle thermals the best.
