    How does the Alienware X17 compare to yesterday's Razer Blade Pro 17.3" QHD 165hz - i7-10th,RTX 3070 $2319.20 ?
    RTX 3060 vs 3070? Wattage?
    11th gen vs 10th gen

    • FireRunner on 13/10/2021 - 12:12

      According to notebookcheck
      The Alienware X17 GPU TDPs are

      GeForce RTX 3060 (115 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)
      GeForce RTX 3070 (125 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)
      GeForce RTX 3080 (150 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)

      Can't find the RTX3070 wattage of the Razer Blade Pro 17 but the 3080 version was only 100W TDP

      • FabMan on 13/10/2021 - 17:10
        +1

        That was an early review, Notebookcheck other sites state it is up to 130W on Razer 17" Pro. So I'm not sure if bith 3070 and 3080 runs at 130W, or if only 3080.

    • kaikor on 13/10/2021 - 12:18

      Also I guess Alienware's support will be better than Razer?

    • Lukas on 13/10/2021 - 12:47

      Still $430 more expensive, possibly similar performance since this series tend to be higher TDP and the Razer was only a 100w 3070. However it's less portable and very gamer styled as well. These don't seem like great deals for performance for your dollar, but are a decent price on new hardware. I think configuring the desktop with a RTX3080 might be the most interesting for ~$3.4k

      • congo on 13/10/2021 - 13:00

        Yep, agreed.
        Will wait for eBay sale.

    • TRANCE on 13/10/2021 - 11:31

      A mistake in the post, there is no way you can get an X17 for under 2k. The post mentions only 7% off already reduced products, which is the same discount you get if you buy through education store.

    • JimmyLmao on 13/10/2021 - 12:07

      No good deals on any XPS desktops unfortunately - none of the codes worked. Dell deals seem to only be good when getting discount off the already discounted price because RRP tends to be over-inflated. I appreciate OP's effort though.

  • DanielR on 13/10/2021 - 11:35

    EBay deals when they had these in stock worked out cheaper- this wasn’t the last eBay Dell deal, but the one before this. Couple of prices I noted were

    R12 i9 3090 list price $5831 add 20% $4831 (max $1000 discount).

    X15 r1 i9 3080 list price $5428 add 20% $4428 (max $1000 discount)

    • ozricoy on 13/10/2021 - 11:54

      Depends on what you’re using it for;

      Gaming with high TDP & cooling performance - Alienware
      Productivity & Multimedia - XPS

      Both are expensive. That, i can tell you.

      A month ago dealbot has a deal for XPS 8940 i7 3060TI at ~$1k9. It might be a better deal given same amount only give you i5 and 1060 for Alienware

    • FireRunner on 13/10/2021 - 12:31
      +2

      Pretty bad value, compared to the regular 20% eBay sales
      ~$1950 for an 11th gen i5 andGTX1660 Ti (current deal)

      XPS 8940 with 11th gen i7 and GTX1660Ti can be had for $1499
      Even better value is XPS 8940 with 11th gen i7 and RTX3060Ti for $1899
      If you really wanted an Alienware, the R10 with Ryzen 7 and RTX3060Ti is $2299 during the eBay sales

      The performance of the 3060Ti destroys that of the 1660Ti so I'd definitely recommend against getting a 1660Ti

  • keishton on 13/10/2021 - 13:45

    I noticed alien ware laptops cost significantly more than the G series, even if specs are relatively similar.

    Other than the design is there a reason to spend the extra on an alienware?

    • FireRunner on 13/10/2021 - 13:54

      Generally the build quality is better, premium feel, lighter and sleeker and a bunch of little features and extras like mux switch for display (rather than routing GPU through CPU which impacts performance), better cooling tech, better I/O ports, etc.
      You do pay a fair bit for the name/branding but it is definitely has some notable improvement over the more budget G-Series range.

    • MikeMikeMike on 13/10/2021 - 14:40

      The G series has a very poor 250nit 120hz screen. The screen on the Alienware m15 is advertised as 300nit but reviewers have found it is actually slightly higher at 320-350. It is also 165hz. Definitely worth the extra money when sales are on. I almost made the mistake of going with the G15 but then changed to an m15. G15 price was $1780, m15 price was $2160.

      • Lonewolf1983 on 13/10/2021 - 15:29

        Personally I find the screen fine for day to day use but I use mine with external screen for anything needing colour accurate work.

        Wasn't worth the price premium to me, and the G15 mines like a champ

      • Wotda58383 on 14/10/2021 - 12:08

          Fans do ramp up and get noisy but I expect this from an Alienware. They never get too loud for me and I usually use headphones when I game anyway. The laptop is silent when not gaming.

  • Griefbringer on 13/10/2021 - 14:01

    There's no R12 discount here - even with 2 coupons the price is hundred's of dollars more expensive than recent comparable machines. The base spec R12 for that price is terrible (11400F+1660Ti+16Gb RAM+512Gb NVME (note no HDD which should be standard))

  • Canberralad92 on 13/10/2021 - 14:36
    +1

    Sorry but this just does not constitute a deal for me. Way over priced for dell machines. Like 2k for a desktop 1660ti system? You can buy a 3060/3060ti system with non proprietary components for similar money any day of the week with no discounts.

  • Thatsgold on 13/10/2021 - 14:55

    Hello fellas,
    Could someone please help in deciding if this is a great deal?
    https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/dell-desktop-computers/alien…

    The only addition I've added is 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD (Boot) + 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s (Storage) which is extra $299.20 so total comes to $3,904.33 after adding the Keanu code.
    Would appreciate if you guys can help me to decide if this a great deal and i should go ahead with it or should i wait for something else as i'm not too bright when it comes to PC parts/deals. Thank you friends.

    • JimmyLmao on 14/10/2021 - 16:34
      +1

      The answer for this sort of thing will always be "it depends" - as your specific needs will vary (gaming, video editing, etc.)

      But if it were me spending $3.9k on a PC, I think I'd go for something like this instead: https://imgur.com/a/dhOGex0
      Price = $3,699 for equivalent specs - built & delivered.

      Then you can spend the ~$300 savings on a monitor; to take advantage of an RTX3080, you'll want at least a 4K/60hz or 1440p Ultrawide 144hz. Or if you already have a monitor, you could get a nice keyboard/mouse, instead of the mediocre Dell ones that are included.

      Plus, in my opinion, the whole appeal of a desktop PC is being able to upgrade components as you wish. I don't know too much about the Alienware desktop PC's specifically but I know (with their XPS desktops at least) Dell tend to have proprietary motherboards and power supplies, which can restrict or limit your ability to upgrade components in future. If the proprietary cooling solution isn't up to par either, the temps of the CPU/GPU may get too high which will cause their performance to drop (so you could be paying top dollar for high-end components that you can't get the most out of. You'd have to search online for reviews of this pre-built PC. ​I suppose the advantage for Alienware is likely a smaller form factor, if that is of concern to you. Dell may also offer better support/warranty depending on where you shop.

      If there's a PC store nearby, perhaps you could pop in for a chat? Ideally when it's not too busy. They may be able to help you figure out your PC build needs and give you a quote, which you could then post on the forums here to verify you're not getting ripped off.

      It will of course always be cheaper to shop around for the best prices on the individual parts and build it yourself, but that takes time and research (and time is money!!)

      Hopefully this helps :)

    Their SSP (Student Purchase Program) always get you 7% on discounted bundle offers already, so KEANU this time makes no difference for student purchase.

    • nng526 on 15/10/2021 - 17:20

      can you stack (Student Purchase Program) code on top of KEANU get extra 7%?

  • Kushalkochar on 16/10/2021 - 02:25

    very much tempted now…

    planning to get this one (R12 - i9 - 3090) :

    https://www.dell.com/en-au/work/shop/desktops-workstations-a…

    Changes : upgraded to windows 11 pro and extended warranty till 3 yrs. applied "KEANURELOADED" (saved $442)

    total cost coming to $ 5,880 (down from $ 8,468).

    I trust and believe that DELL machines are mostly over-priced, but these kind of deals get them to the fair value (almost)!!!

    My use case : Some gaming and will do crypto mining when not gaming!

    Investment : Approx 6K

    Return via mining : Approx 3500 (assuming running 24x7) for the 1st year. for second year, let's assume ETH moved to ETH 2.0 and so mining other coins and the profit drops to 50%, i.e. approx 1700. so in total 2 years ROI = Approx $5200

    And then you can sell it to the market if you want to upgrade; or continue to mine crypto!

    Even if ETH 2.0 happen earlier then 1 year, still you will be able to recoup the cost in 3 years (the warranty will support running smoothly for 3 years)…

    TBH, I am trying to justify this BIG spend…but hey I was anyway looking/thinking to buy a decent gaming PC!

    Sounds like a good decision? Or naaaahhhh…???

    BTW, When is this code going to expire?

    • TogTogTogTog on 16/10/2021 - 07:52

      Just spend $3-3.5k on a 3090. That'll give you like 3k wriggle room to build an equivalent PC around it lol

      • Kushalkochar on 16/10/2021 - 20:35

        yeah… but I checked on other sites and cost of sourcing the similar components; and it seems that Alienware still is cheaper than other in market?!
        after getting 3090 from market you will have only 2k left to get other components which seems impossible to source similar configuration.

        • TogTogTogTog on 16/10/2021 - 22:32

          Based on other desktops I've been looking at… 32gb of 3200mhz ram is like $200. Maybe another $200 for the SSD and HDD. I think you'll find regardless of the GPU, it's basically like 1k for everything else.

          So 3.5k for card, 1k for the rest. Leaves you at least 1k extra to do whatever (and this is at market prices, no discounts).

  • kaikor on 16/10/2021 - 18:24

    I queried why a prebuild shows a “ships on” date and then after ordering the date is two weeks later, and they gave me a free Alienware 510M Gaming Mouse. Worth querying. Not an incredible mouse but still decent. I’ll just sell it when it arrives.

  • prkr on 25/10/2021 - 02:00

    My order has now been delayed until December 1st. According to my research, this is standard practice by Dell.

    When querying it on their forum, they removed a paragraph from my post which quoted directly from the ACCC website.

    They are intentionally misleading customers about shorter lead times to increase sales. I will file a report with the ACCC and encourage any others to do so. My order is canceled and I will be receiving a refund.
