Official Alienware M17XR4 thread

[calvinhan77]

Heads up for everyone who want a Alienware! Do call up Jaslene.. her price is really the best price in town! I cant say how much she gives me for mine M14R2 but I can safety says that her price is the same (Maybe about $50-$100) as getting it from the Dell US site (after Haggling) + Shipping + GST. And you get to pay via installments which is great!

What you should do before calling her is go to Dell SG site and build your dream laptop, then call her and send her the cart details..tell her your budget (be realistic) getting down to half the price is impossible...Wait for her quote (she reply within 2 hrs for me), Wow at the price and order!

Btw, her working hrs is 10am to 7pm (Mon-Fri)

And yes..she has a very nice voice

What happen???

 

[noobzpro]

Fridsay I book out I upload pics...I went to check in stores most sets have the same issue...just that I guess not much people notice

 

[Knives85]

what problem you have with the laptop?

 

[noobzpro]

mainly workmanship and aesthetics problems....paint not done properly......the lid of the laptop not aligned to base...the front alien grille that corner the cover of the base not done properly with the unit itself....i went to check stores all had same issues no wonder the replacement had the same problem.....thus it just shows the bad workmanship for 3.7k i expect near perfection....thus what im doing now is build myself a desktop with eyefinity....

 

[Knives85]

got pics to show? i cpuldn't find any comestic defects that you've mentioned. Or maybe i didn't look hard enough... -.-|||

 

[Koonz82]

Alienware that bad? I'm thinking of getting one myself. Dunno if get the Crossfire 7970 from overseas. How do u guys get the low prices when u order from Dell? I went the online store got quoted 4.2k but others post similar specs for 3.6k only

can sherline get bluray drive upgrade for me at cheaper price?

 

[noobzpro]

It has finally arrived...

lol his also have that issue....wifout zoomin can see le......actually dell can keep giving me replacement....but its a issue they cannot solve thus....btw did ur unit have stickers on speaker grill glossy area and the alien head????? if not means most likely they gave u my unit le.....my specs were i7-3820 w/ 7970m

1. u see the lid is slightly off aligned from the base
2. u see the gap of the left side base compare to right....if i took a night pic it would have light leak....

 

[Knives85]

I went to check on what you've said... lucky mine is quite alright... quite aligned... but personally it is a small matter... most importantly is the power of the lappie... performing really gd on all games i've played so far.. quite satisfied with it.

 

[noobzpro]

Haha that's good thern...for me its just wrong for such a lappy to have such issue...always prefered clevo over aw....now since I am in army I bought a desktop instead le...

 

[nss!w!]

Jaslene has resigned, anyone else to recommend that will give a good discount?

 

[silvercast]

Anyone else knows where to buy alienware laptop at a cheaper price? And any other issues you encounter with this laptop? TIA.
