5.0 out of 5 stars FIRE Laptop for Gaming
By Nic Wainwright
I have used this laptop for over 12 hours now of MAX graphics settings on 'New World' (the MMORPG) and it runs like a charm. And this is WHILE I was also inside a Discord voice server... So basically, nothing can stop me haha.I highly recommend this laptop.It feels and looks sleek. And even though it's quite large, I just got myself a airport carry-on backpack meant to carry 17 inch laptops, and it fits in there perfectly fine.I honestly haven't tried doing much else with the laptop yet, but I can't imagine anything posing a problem.One side feature I really appreciate is that you can customize the RGB color of LEDs for the Keyboard, Alienware Logo on the back, and the vent-grille LED border thing - this means I can do some relief lighting against my wall near my monitor setup just by changing what colors my laptop is shooting out back there!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Gaming Laptop 17" screen
By RDCHRCH
It will play any game you can purchase. And I am not talking about fortnite and minecraft. Of course, it can play those games. But if you're a hardcore gamer looking for a good laptop, you're looking for something that can play Red Dead Redemption 2, Control, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, GTA5 (with stacked mods for offline use), etc. etc.,,, The only drawback is you probably want a laptop cooling fan/pad to go below it. It runs hard between 70-80 degrees (C). But it can spike up to the 90's during serious intense gameplay and you don't want that. The internal fusion/fan settings can mitigate most of it. But an extra, external fan doesn't hurt.
