I've seen those Singtel sets going online for around 1.8K. If that is the price vs getting brand new from Dell at 2699, I think I will recommend forgoing the FHD panel. To be honest, if you really prefer a good screen, I rather you spend the dif and get a 24 inch IPS panel for a fraction of the price difference. That will give you a much better gaming experience than trying to game on the small 14 inch FHD screen. Just my opinion.

So far so good.. Playing D3 and audition no problem. But when using internet will freezz awhile.

Maybe the win down 8 not stable yet?

What WIFI card is it using? To be honest, I feel this is more of a driver issue. Last time I used Wifi on a laptop running Win 8, it was perfectly fine, though not on this model though.

For school use should be fine bro. If I were you, I wouldn't mind getting a cheaper Alienware 14 off the garage since I have a better gaming rig. Likely you will be gaming on your desktop anyways. Your call.

Hi guys

I'm not very sure I understand how you guys are buying the Alienware laptops. Some mention Singtel and others online from dell, that'd be dell singapore, yes?

How much would it be to get it from Singtel? I checked out the Alienware Singapore and they've got only three latest models on the site, are those my only options? $2600+ would be the cheapest Alienware?

Thanks!

those who get from singtel is either they sign plan or they buy from others who sign plan.....or else u gotta get it from dell sg....do not just use the online website...chat with them and ask them to give u a quotation with discount....so far for the 2699 model shown on the website...i managed to get 2800 with 3years warranty and the vindicator bagpack

Anyone experiencing the black service tag sticker at the back of the case start peeling off? Can we remove the tag :/.

Also anyone spotted the webcam does have many facial scratch all over the small lens.. Nothing serious but kinda paranoid lol

Hi thanks for the reply!

I'm guessing the Singtel plan is pretty high then. $100++ a month?

Wow, $2699 is still way off my budget lol.
