Dell says display is 300 nits, for all the nit-pickers Big Grin

Aside from 240hz being a bit overkill and the weight seems on the heavy side at 7.14 lbs, this looks like the power I want and the price is looking very tempting.

What I'm mostly concerned about is the thermals and other usability issues that aren't captured by the specs. Is alienware still one of the top gaming laptop companies? Do we think the price for high end machines with a 4070 will come down significantly in November? I'm a desktop guy and shopping for someone else so any info and experience is welcome.

Without the 10% off this isn't really much of a deal, especially with peak retail holiday coming up. I'd say this deal is dead unless someone has a working way to get the 10% code to work. Also curious if the 10% code even works for items on sale to begin with.

Can confirm the 10% off code works. I have one I secured prior to today.

Must resist. New RTX desktop and mobile SKUs coming for CES. A few months away.

Surely you will be able to buy a much more powerful and much cheaper in 5 years!

In for one but noticed after ordering there is are two additional $88 extra support options (ie remote diagnostics and on site services) for a total of $196 (I'm no mathematician.). This is abhorrent. Insofar as I've called Dell (and been hung up on repeatedly) to finally reach a customer service person who advised me these are included and non refundable fees in the price. Dells website says these are FREE WITH PURCHASE. But they are not. Check your invoice. These are separately billed in addition to the price of the computer and are only revealed after the shipping of the computer in the invoice. For something that is sorely unnecessary and free; as well as non returnable; this is egregious.

Anyone else? Will never buy from DELL again if this is true for everyone.

Quote from Peichen :
High end is Lenovo, Razor, ASUS, and MSI for all their highend stuff have unique features and well built

Alienware is high end too, backed by the best warranty in the business. Arguably Alienware and Razer are the highest end in the gaming laptop segment of the big name brands. Lenovo's stuff is mid tier but a good bang for your buck, most of Asus' stuff is mid outside of the ROG line, which is most certainly high tier, and MSI used to be considered high tier but not so much anymore unless you go with their titans. They sell stuff at Walmart with GTX 1650s. Any Razer or Alienware you get is going to be expensive when they launch, all the others have a ton of entry level junk

Yes, Alienware and Razer are the highest end. Look at the comparison for higher end laptops and it's always a Razer blade vs an AW x-series.

Razer has the unibody design and OLED going for it, Alienware has better cooling and a vastly better warranty through Dell. Turnaround time for a Razer has been noted as months at a time, with Dell you can have someone come to your front door and repair within a matter of days.

I deal with them all. Dell is great for the warranty. Asus is typically great for their build quality in the ROG stuff (warranty is iffy). Lenovo makes mid-tier stuff that's built decently, but they shine in their Thinkpad lineup. HP…well I've never had a great experience with HP honestly, from personal to business class.

Where does it say it's free? If it's posted free on there and you don't get it, bring it to a CS manager rep's attention on the phone. They should be happy to fix it, if not just contact your CC company for it.

I believe they are line items on the invoice but the total does not change. Check your credit card statement the charge/total is the same it's just separated on the invoice. So for example invoice will show $1200 for computer $59 for 1 year premium support total $1259.99. Where your email confirmation will just show computer for $1259.99. I have ordered 40+ times from Dell over the years invoice always separates out warranty, probably because you could buy a longer more expensive one.

This is my experience as well. I'll never use the mcafee sub but its built into the total quoted and only shows up as a separate line item in the invoice. It can't be removed but since the total price is what I agreed to, I can't complain.
