Frequently Asked Questions

What is the exact RAM configuration, and is it upgradeable?
This laptop comes with 40GB of DDR4 RAM installed. The description indicates this is an 'up to' configuration, which typically means one module is soldered and another is user-replaceable, but the specific factory configuration of 40GB is not standard and may limit future upgrade paths compared to dual-slot designs.
How much total storage is included, and what type are the drives?
The laptop has a total of 2TB of SSD storage, configured as two separate 1TB PCIe NVMe M.2 solid-state drives. This provides fast data access and allows for organizing the operating system and applications on one drive and games or files on the other.
Does the USB Type-C port support charging the laptop?
Yes, the single SuperSpeed USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port supports power delivery, meaning you can charge the laptop through this port with a compatible charger, in addition to using it for data transfer and video output.
What is the refresh rate and aspect ratio of the display?
The 16-inch screen has a 165Hz refresh rate for smoother motion in games and a 16:10 aspect ratio (WQXGA, 2560x1600), which provides more vertical screen space compared to traditional 16:9 displays for productivity and certain games.
What is the dedicated video memory (VRAM) on the RTX 3060 graphics card?
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics processor in this model has 6GB of dedicated GDDR6 memory, as specified in the product details under 'graphics_card_ram_size'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good So Far!

I heard mixed reviews on this. I took a chance and it's only been 2 weeks, but so far so good. The Alienware software takes about 10 to 20 seconds to load when first opening it. after that 5-10. The back end got flack for being too big. But Who is really carrying around a 16 inch gaming laptop. Keys feel great. RGB is good. Keys are clear and not blinding like most RGB backlits. Design is good imo. feels premium. Cam is decent. Touch pad is smooth. Display is nice, all text is clear and colors are good. I heard many people complaining about the brightness levels. But in a dark room I actually turn the brightness down. And in my home with normal outdoor light coming in, I have no issues with the brightness. 2 usb 2 usb c, this is the only downside. in my opinion. I wish there was one more. I do like there are no cables coming from the sides. All ports in back. Cleaner desk look. will update if I have any issues.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this laptop!!!

This laptop is a GIANT waste of money. It didn't last for 2 weeks before the system stopped charging itself and shut down. I had to return it without being able to remove my data. I am VERY disappointed with this product and purchase.
