I got the m17 r3 with the 4K 60hz screen, 10th gen i9 and the 2070 super. Needless to say, it sounded like it was about to take off as soon as you’d start up a game. Super loud and super hot keyboard. Downsizing to the m15 and an i7 to see if that’s more tolerable
Dang that thing is well spec'd. I hope it performs well with all that stuff packed in there! Looking forward to seeing how the 2080 performs in such a thin package.
DigitalN it has been documented before and the 2080 better in other thicker because the r3 runs a little too hot and needs to be undervolted for better preformence
I have found that the vapor chamber in the m3 can't keep it under the thermal limit of the 10980HK. I am going to have to undervolt this unit. I'll add this to the main review for comparison between the default settings and the undervolt.
Could you check how it works with designing? The colors, glare on the screen. I’d also like to know the battery life when gaming with high graphics. Not only that but the cooling system, I wanna know how loud the fans are at it’s highest and lowest. :) Thank you!
Really nice video! Subbed! Just ordered one of these, I can't wait! I'm using a five-year-old laptop with a GTX 960M so this should be a nice upgrade :D
@@ewan6096 Loads of research. Still not happy with where it is at. I looked at a number of the much bigger channels and looked at ways to incorporate some of their items. After that I look at all the comments people leave and ways to improve from the feedback. I just ordered yet another microphone, so hopefully I can get rid of the audio echo and reverb. That one is from you. I tried a microphone isolation in this video which improved slightly but still not good enough.
Its not much of a difference the full power 2070 super vs the 2080 super max q is insignificant maybe 4-8% depending on game. Stay away from the i9 unless you really need it. It's a furnace with heat. If you really want power go for the full power 150w 2080 super on the m17.

I’m in the market for a new gaming laptop and I’m interested in the g15 and 17 and I was wondering if you’d do a comparison to see which one has better value
I will have another 3 under review over the next week or so. Alienware m15 R3, MSI GE66 Raider, and the Asus Tuf A15. I'll be sure to do a 3 way with those. Kinda of like a Low, medium, high comparison. That said would you like to see a cost per frame comparison across the units I have tested, include the G15 and G17 in the mix? Would you find that beneficial? What games would you like me to compare if so? BTW, thanks for being active in the channel!
Your welcome I just like to give feedback to channels and it shows here that you appreciate your viewers and value comments and I think you should benchmark modern warfare and maybe battlefield also remember me when you hit 1 million!

Amazing laptop, I have the i7 1080p 144 monitor and I can max out all settings on Cyberpunk even psycho setting for Ray Tracing and it runs at about 30fps ....didn’t expect that at all...cannot believe the power
Ordered mine on Black Friday and i must say i got a steal of a deal. On top of the deal I called Dell today to cancel the order because i saw a better deal today on Cyber Monday that was 75 bucks cheaper guess what. They gave me an additional 130 off to keep the order of course I said Hell yeah lol.

That is actually how it comes....I kid you not. I was a bit shocked as well. Minimal, packaging for that low eco impact. It was the same in the m17 R3 as well. Thanks for watching though :)
I'll be doing a full review in the next few days. What would you like to see in the review? Let me know what you think!
Love to see how the fans react. How loud is t? Will it get noisy? Wanna use it for music production.
Can thoe lights be turned off? Will the keys get hot?
Battery life?

Thanks, takes time to build it up. Only been at it for a month.
that black colour is way more better than white....
Are they still charging the mega premium price ? 😁😁😁
Yep, sure are, the new ones with the 30 series are offering more bang for the buck. But still a premium. I just ordered the R4 to review.
Spoiled myself with the 17 inch version lunar white and man the performance is desktop level and the looks are just exquisite 👌

How much weight the box ?
Piano black bezel... they still haven't updated it after 3 generations?!
Nope sadly, there is always next year....
How is the temperature. Is it as bad as people say because I want to get this laptop later on since I have the acer nitro 5
Temps were good for me. One of the coolest and quietest laptops I have tested.
Is the memory upgradable??
No it is not unfortunately

do you have a price limit?

Ram is not upgradeable?

What color is that?
Dark Side of the Moon!
In comparison the ALIENWARE M15 R3 with the HP OMEN 15 2020 which one seems better to you
Alienware M15 r3 hands down.
Is it possible to make a comparison video between this and the new Razer blade 15 base model?
I don't have that model, but the Razer Blade 15 Advanced Edition which had a better cooling setup was slower than the Alienware.
Is this dark side of the moon? They have replaced the colour with jet black as r2 was silverish
Yes this is Dark Side of the Moon. In the video I have a softbox on it, so there is a fair bit of light on it. It is more of a darker grayish colour.
Can we upgrade the RAM
No you can not, it is soldered to the motherboard.
I need a laptop for school and have 4 choices. This computer, razer blade 15, hp specter x369 2in1, and a MacBook. Which would you recommend
Do you plan to game at all? First two are good for gaming. Other two are good for battery life.
