Alienware M18 Review  

Thank you for the detailed review.. Is this the m18 r2?

Thank you¡

The refresh rate! Where do we go from here? Good to hear from Brian.

I'm Dilbert and I work for Dell

Is this an intervention? It's critical? As in critical condition?

It's a big laptop and kills roaches dead!

Newbie here, if you connect this laptop to an external monitor, will it cause the fans to spin loud?

You need to use the display port for the higher than 120mhz displays not the hdmi

i have the m18r2 with a i9 14th gen. The alienware command center shows the cpu temp consistently in the mid 75c to 80c with just normal use. Is this normal?

Lots of Problems with keyboard lights

For it's desired audience, professional gamers that attend tournaments, I like it. For casual gamers, overkill. A desktop setup or smaller gaming laptop would suffice.

Do u think these m18 r2 specs are still good for gaming and streaming? Also any advice from others would help out alot to. 14th Gen Intel® Core™i7 14700HX (20-Core, 33MB L3 Cache, up to 5.5GHz Max Turbo Frequency) Graphics Card NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070, 8 GB GDDR6 Display 18" QHD+ (2560 x 1600) 165Hz, 3ms, ComfortView Plus, NVIDIA G-SYNC + DDS, 100% DCI-P3, FHD IR Camera Memory 16 GB: 2 x 8 GB, DDR5, 5600 MT/s, non-ECC, dual-channel Storage 1 TB, M.2, PCIe NVMe, SSD

I own an Alienware M18 R1 i9 13980HX RTX4090 and the AWCC is really bad the Fan curves are reversed high is on the left side and you can't control them properly in custom mode the fans in 35% make a unbearable noise only stabilizes at 40% or 45% the sad part is you can't avoided the 35% because the fans run at that level for at least 15 sec and it's a seting form the hidden bios so it's 15sec of pain and suffering. every 5 min or so. and the CPU1 fan run the same time with GPU3 fan for no reason at 50C the problems with the software and the poor bios are the poor implementation and the lack of control is unforgiving and gives me a sour taste in my mouth. If your voice can be heard at Dell, please tell them To FiX the AWCC and the Fan curves form the bios give the people the freedom to control their Fans and same thing can be said about Undervolting why Blocking it why? this is really sad.
