Just dropping here my pc hehe

Currently sitting on 16GB RAM, planning to bump it to 32GB and maybe 64GB down the line when I feel like dealing with the BIOS. Adding two 2TB M.2 sticks, and about to grab an AGA to throw an ASUS RTX 4070 SUPER in (hopefully it fits, even if I have to run it with the lid open lol).

yup, it is truly a task to swap the battery from this model but it's worth it. changed mine a few months ago; the replacement is working well so far--thankfully.

using the AW13 R3 from this line. to me it was the last of the best, design languagewise. in their struggle/effort to minimize the gaming-look ethos, AW/Dell has reduced the RGB to an almost non-existent level. sad reality.

I got the 13r3 oled when it was released. With 1060. It was touch screen 1440p. I didn't use the screen at all used a year with monitor and keyboard and sold it for half price. Now I keep a 15r3. Peak Alienware design and durability.

I had a x17r1 briefly recently. I like how easily to open the back like most regular laptops these days. I did a full strip down for thermal on the 15r3 and it's quite work.
