I actually made the dumb move of buying a gaming laptop, and from Alienware no less. Most expensive mistake I've made to date. 1. They get way too hot. Should be expected with the enclosed space. 2. If you are a power gamer you will see performance drop in the first couple of months due to prolonged periods of heat. 3. If you are not a power gamer, you probably don't need this beast. 4. The battery will become useless very quickly which makes it useless unless you have an outlet.

I got mine from ebay, this guy Linkage is one of the best ebay sellers i have ever had the pleasure to deal with and the laptop is "buy it now" for ú1,200 the link i sent is the exact same laptop i bought, but i talked to him on the phone and got a bluetooth adapter and free delivery if i bought it today (give him a call, tell him you want to buy it now and would like to negotiate on teh price) you will not be disspointed... Considering Dell own Alienware, I wouldn't expet the prices to drop anytime soon. I've long decided if I am going to spend the money on a gaming rig, it will be a desktop system. The laptops just aren't worth the hassel.

I will have to ask if that is possible No, no, no. Once you determine the amount of ram you want in your PC, always break it down into two stick to take advantage of DC boards.
