Nicely done review! This is my first video seen from this channel and was very impressed with the content and presentation! Answered all my questions about the system.
The 2080 Super compares with the 3070. Almost identical performance. The 3080 will get you 10-15% more performance, but at a significant bump in price on the m17 R4
@@DhalonTech Depends on the laptop manufacturer and the power draw configured. The AW m17 R4's 3080 is a max power GPU with 16GB of VRAM and will perform better than the AW 51M R2's 2080 Super and much better than an R1's 2080
Very nice review, thinking of getting this with i9 10900k and RTX 2080 Super as on sale at the moment,i believe review configuration the same...did you experience fans kicking in a lot? I think you said fans quieter on the Area 51 than other models but still worried about thermals..did you find the lunar white colour hides fingerprints well?
Does it justify the insane price of this thing though? I saw it from $5-8,000 You can get so much more in a desktop custom build. I'm truly curious about this.
I haven’t seen one over $5,000 but the specs on the ones that are $2,500 - $3,000 are pretty impressive and you could always upgrade it later when things eventually get cheaper.
So which is the best 2021 desktop replacement laptop that you can change everything inside laptop also no problem heavy video editing for any video editing software also UA-cam video and gaming?
I know that that you have rtx 2070 you can upgrade it to rtx 2080 super but it's a loss I will recomend you that buy an rtx 3060 3070 3080 etc you can connect the desktop GPU to your Alienware with the help of a connecter
This is basically the best laptop you can get from a company that has next day warranty. There are other options but when you spill your drink over it, you want that warranty; as in next day not in 2 weeks.
I have to correct you. It is not a Max-Q. It is the none max Q with a TGP of 200watts. Basically it performs just like the desktop card
Sad that there won't be a R3 version of this :(
That fan comparison was hilarious
How tf is he playing a fps game with the trackpad? I didn't knew it was possible until I saw this video
NOT A MAX-Q GPU .. its near a full desktop version as its Dells own gpu than is not soldered ..As they say upgradable

Great review! I’m surprised the gt76 gets so much louder than the Area 51m
I have this laptop, the 2.5" SATA bay can be removed and has a further 2 x M2 slots which can be used instead AND in a raid config
Just bought recently as I sold my previous 17 R4. Surprisingly the text on the bottom part of the screen can't illuminate by fx anymore?
The R1 does not have the top hexagonal airflow and some R1 have overheating issues. The R2 fixes that but the Ram was reduced to Max 64GB.
How does the 2080 super(200w) vs the new 3080 from m17r4?

2080S with 200W is great. Depends on tests but that 125W desktop cpu tho
@@TheBinro01 So 3080 laptop is better than the Alienware Area 51m's 2080 ?

@@robertbinetti9161 I can't find any comparison unluckily about this, but thank you!
Isn’t it a dgff video card? As far as u know, there’s no max q version on the R2.
This is correct . this is not a laptop GPU this is a custom 200w GPU some say it can get 230w on the GPU .. near the Desktop version .
If you used a egpu how many fps would you get?

I bought mine for $3K. For a beast mode laptop, top of the line, I think it is fair.
I haven’t seen one over $5,000 but the specs on the ones that are $2,500 - $3,000 are pretty impressive and you could always upgrade it later when things eventually get cheaper.
current price is $1,899.99
Dell special deal.
@@unitednoobies898 insanely priced in India I go there all the time
@@___-ih4ty I thought Alienware quit supporting new stuff for the Alienware, like you can’t put 3070s into older area51’s

The area 51m r2. Otherwise just go for a MSI gl76 leopard
this guy never mentions the price in any review. 25 mins. cant spare a sec for price?
Cause it depends on custumization
2k-3k or its a rip off
@@thomaswight1831 got mine i7 with 2080 super for 2600€ and it was more expensive than the Dell site cause i had to import to Portugal
Is this available in India ? How do I get ? It's not available on amazon flipcart dell india
miss dell's 1440p 120hz screen option.
Are gaming laptops meant to last after facing issues like overheating and fan sinking the heat, and considering their bulky built.
This is more of a desktop replacement in a laptop form factor.
@@jbmarine0612 agreed
Ive just recently purchased alienware area 51 r2 with rtx2070 super..will i be able to upgrade it to the 3000 series gpu..thankyou

@@daddypiggaming3622 very frustrating if thats the case..why can't we upgrade..is it because of size,shape or thermals?

I'm pretty sure it's not a 2080 max q
Yeah more like Max-P xd
Correct. It's a desktop equivalent part. (Typed on an Area-51m R2)
@@Dragonblaster1 LMAO Seconded once more, replying on mine as well
i feel that fhd is not good sample but qhd is excellent. Just mismatching and pointless display test so much as processing in 51m
Watching from my alienware area 51m
Gonna play all my games at 720p to get 300 fps and play some 480 to get 1k fps
🤣🤣🤣
its not a max q ...
My god, did social media made you make that intro?
Not a max-q. Its a 150 watt "max-p" variant on a samsung gddr6
its 200w .
@@Killswitch73 oh wow. Even higher that I thought
It's not the MAX-Q variant of the 2080 Super, but a desktop equivalent.
This is true. I have this exact model only difference being with more RAM and 4K Screen.
@@vicentesalasii1480 Yes. I have the 2080 Super, 32GB RAM and the 320Hz FHD screen.
Is Razer better than Alienware??
Nope
No

LOL no, in fact razer is one of the worst in laptop quality
And I thought the best high end laptop is Asus roge
The specs are lame to me
