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

How to get the amex cash back and $50 off?
I could not get the 50 off to combine with the 12%. AMEX was a deal on your card.

Yes it should work. I bought Alienware desktops in December and it applied just fine. Also check if you have 10% statement credits as I just got that offer on my Plat business.

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 had to RMA a Dell laptop and they replaced the Samsung memory with Micron. I am still fighting for justice but it seems like the good memory isn't available.

If I were you I would go for light and longer battery life unless you are using gpu a lot for your development.

Well, any Zen 2 or Zen 3 based AMD laptops, even the gaming ones give lot of battery life if you enable Optimus. An example, Zephyrus G15 with its QHD 165Hz Screen, Ryzen 9 5900HS and RTX 3070 graphics in Hybrid Mode, can give almost 10 hours battery life in normal usage and 6 hours + with mixed productivity and light work.

Someone got Samsung as recently as last week on the m15r4. Chances are there but a lot lower

Hey guys, had that thing, very bad experience with dell, multiple problems, first laptop came in and was overheating to +101C, replacement came in with a broken keyboard.
Alienware command center is a piece of crap.
Not recommending to buy this.

Performance wise, they are probably similar, but the L5P is better value for money for sure.

For the same price as this Alienware ($1469), you can get the L5P and get:
- 1TB ssd instead of 512ssd.
- 140W rtx3070 instead of 130W
- Much better screen
- Keyboard with numpad

Went ahead and ordered

$1368 before tax (used 10% off coupon).
Did split payment with 2 Amex CC at checkout to use 2 x $120 discounts = $240 Total off
4.1% CB through portal = $60 off

= $1068 before tax. Pretty slick for a decent 3070 I think
