fwiw when i look at the basic specs, and compare it to the hp omen 16 then the omen comes out on top
Amazing design but the hardware isn't very good.
Ooh 5800H. Nice 3050ti. Ugh, no thanks. Just buy last year's i5 Lenovo, it is faster and that is without the power mod bios that give you 14% performance boost. https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-3050-Ti-Laptop-vs-Nvidia-RTX-2060-Mobile/m1559532vsm701609
Just dismantled a 15 r3, Jesus worst laptop I've ever worked on
900 for 8gb ram, a 3050, and FHD screen? Not for me Clive.

May 7th, not here!
Works on a PS5?
are these better than the steelseries 3 console edition headset?
I'll update the thread, cheers
Ordered, estimated Delivery is May 6th though

how do you take the 20% off?
Does it have water cooling?
actually this laptop has excellent cooling
Good price for a previous-gen CPU, yeah...
V cheap, might go for it.




So reinstall windows and put it in a different case?
Much much louder. (embarrassed)
I think it's more to do with planned obsolescence. A mobo and psu generally will outlast the Dell warranty at which point you're in trouble when something fails because you'd be juggling rationale between high Dell repair/replacement costs or buying a new unit and binning the old one. It's really irresponsible and profit driven but it's becoming the new normal with big corporations, Apple is an obvious example that comes to mind.
Yes I think pretty much all Dell's have gone back to being proprietary motherboard, case, psu.... I'm amazed they don't get the CPUs locked to the motherboard like Lenovo have done on some servers! Even the graphics cards in these are horrible, special OEM built with nasty fan solutions. I don't really mind proprietary parts in little low cost desktops that you're never likely to upgrade other than ram or SSD but for gaming this is a bad move by Dell. I guess it seriously simplifies Dell's technical support, as users cannot self upgrade parts there are likely to be far less support problems, other than the hundreds of millions related to Windows :D
That's incredible.

Hey, so are you able to share your wisdom senpai? I am sitting here spending hours trying to do diff combos to get it down to this price but can't seem to figure out a way!!!
Thank.trust me it is possible and easier than you think (y) few more days. I am so hyped.
While you don't have to, I do hope you reveal how (assuming it's possible for me to do it??) As I'm keen on getting one! Enjoy the holiday!
I will reveal how when I place my order in few days. I need to wait few more. Dam holidays (y)
How did you get the £870 price?


I actually got my topcashback missing transaction request finally approved for this monitor giving me another £56 off. With the 10% compensation I got as well I think that's made this monitor only cost a bit over £700 for me in the end. Really can't complain. :D
I had my TCB tracked this week, £33 and change
Gutted I missed out on this. If anyone is having buyers remorse, please don't cancel! I will happily take your delivery slot :)
I either have a very quiet monitor or the fan noise issue is totally overblown. I can just about hear it with my ear to the top vents. Dell refunded me the 10% they promised for delayed shipping without issue, just sent a support request once it arrived and they replied the following day. Just got to see if I can get TCB tracked now.
I couldn't hear it at all but didn't listen specifically. Will try this evening.


Shame, my 11yo’s omen is coming this week and had to cancel his monitor as it’s out of stock.
Personally being the key word there - that's my point :)
Nope, suspect Dell found they were selling it too cheap and finished it
Any luck getting this down. Getting £246 too
i would 100% agree that 1440p is best for WZ mate. But deffo not for cpu bound games like Valo or CS. i couldnt personally like you say, go lower than 240hz to 165/144 1440p for them 2 games.




Thanks for clearing that up for us.
Not sure why everyone wants a 4k Touchscreen on a 15" laptop? Ive had a 4k touchscreen for 7 years. Screen is set to 1080p and touch is disabled. Both are useless features for a 15" or 17" screen. I do however own a Tablet and a massive 4k TV. This is where touchscreen and 4k are useful.
exactly. i have x17 3070 and very happy ..paid 2k though
This one from Gamers Nexus is actually a comedy special (unintentionally on Dell/Alienwares part).
Dell outlet customer service is shocking, I had a laptop which was well-used - didn't seem refurbished, boot up ground to a halt after a few months and they refused to look at it under warranty, was only running two programmes which were regularly updated. Only assistance they offered was via a phone advice on wiping the computer myself, but the call centre wasn't Uk based so couldn't understand a word. Had to get an American Express chargeback, Amex were excellent, Dell was useless. Chat and email transcripts were enough for Amex to process an instant refund. Be warned


Thanks for sharing your first deal @Maples (y)
Yeah true, I did know - my bad!
Alienware uk twitter quoted £1099 with a 22nd March release.
I have 2 of these and they are the dogs nuts.
I don't think is is worth paying £200 extra over a 144 or 165 Hz 1440p IPS panel. Most games start becoming CPU or memory bottlenecked over 165 Hz. I also can't tell the difference between 165 Hz and 144 Hz on my own screens.

No more keys available:(
Calm down Obi-Wan Kenobi (lol)
Sim City 2000 Now thats a name I haven't heard in a long time
I’m still on Sim City 2000.. game ain’t ended yet lol

Expensive for a Dell in a snazzy case, and 6 core with 1 stick of ram? Seriously!
Take the card bin the rest!
motherboard is not atx, its proprietary dell BS
Six core for over 2 bags.... come on now

Yeah you are correct and the benchmarks are wrong. Go back to telling everyone you are a millionaire spending all evening and day and night on HUKD instead of in barbados. We all believe you
Thanks to your posting the price went up by £100.
I've heard nothing good about alienware for years and years. Do your due diligence people.
Ok price for a non PC builder.
I always thought that then 4 years ago I was in market for one and their price was very competitive. i5 8400 with a 1070 GPU. Use it everyday for work and then game on it as well. So for £265 a year after 4 years I'd say it's been great value. Seem quite pricey now so in a years time I'll shop around again.

I used to play this game but haven't for over a year. How is it now?
Bit tight of them on this giveaway, usually better than this. Free bank slots though I guess
Bloody mobile version not giving me the get key button lol
Love Kate Mulgrew 🖖🏻

Dam I missed this! Don’t suppose anyone obtained a spare :(
My key never works when I try to redeem it.
I already have the game, claimed a key in case anyone needs it. Who wants one? Check your DMs!
Cmon guys you can get it for £5 or less
Damn missed it!

great deal, i've been looking to upgrade from an acer predator z301 200hz gsync.
Was in the description but updated the title nonetheless.
Putting 240Hz would help
Great monitor. Very nice price too. I bought a pair of these from Alienware when they were on offer with codes.
I can only assume they don’t understand what it is and are voting based on the resolution only

I do a lot of 4k video editing and really struggled to find a dedicated video editing set up. Prices are sky high at the moment. Just bought a Sony a7s iii and the files completely crashed my Dell XPS laptop, with a decent specced i7 and 64gb RAM. I've just gone all in on this. Hope it can cope with the editing software and files. https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/desktops-and-all-in-ones/alienware-aurora/spd/alienware-aurora-r13-desktop/dawr1308?cjevent=e8a6a61c851d11ec811e08100a180510&dgc=CJ&publisherid=4653527&publisher=&cjdata=MXxZfDB8WXwxNjQzOTg5OTk3NDAy&gacd=9684977-24628710-5750457-280362152-136708306&dgc=af&VEN1=14311761-7947610-96055347&dclid=CM6Qs_eS5PUCFZOPGwod-KgJ_A&nclid=i9tVsU2UjWX6noAvdmOePu5PBeyAfPJvGTp7A0beM7nF2kvoqEpnLH1FRTeklAmK I can still cancel so if anyone has any decent ideas, please let me know :D
Your point regarding the mobo is completely correct. If you have a mobo issue with a dell you are stuck with having to get the exact part from Dell as a standard mobo will not fit due to the proprietary shape and fit. in practice I have not had such a big issue with replacing a Dell power supply. I have replaced the PSU in my 2 most recent Dell XPS model that had PSUs that had proprietary (i.e. non-standard) sizes but the mobos themselves had standard connectors. If you visit the Dell forums you will be able to find which non-Dell off the shelf PSUs will fit in the space available.and have the required connections for your specific model. So replacing the PSU is a more of a pain than it should be and your choice will be limited but it is not a major issue. The other issue with Dells is that they often have poor case designs which severely limit cooling options and generally Dell seem to put in the cheapest noisiest cooling they can find. If looking at this Alienware I would also consider looking at the HP Omen 40L or the new 45L. At least HP seem to use off the shelf motherboards, PSU, etc in their models and the cases seem pretty well cooled. Especially the 45L with its unique external radiator design.

Enjoy yours then. And keep making assumptions and opinions about people you don't know. Oh, and depreciation model is just brilliant for a PC that broke after 10 months, cost a fortune for a young kid and it's a time bomb now. As I said, keep thinking like this and maybe tell me more what I should and shouldn't do with my life.

This perhaps the reason why QD-OLED monitor not costing an arm and leg:
Be great if that’s the case. MicroLED on my radar although appreciate it’s a way off If test data can demonstrate that burn in pretty much mitigated then very compelling indeed. Screen savers/pixel shifting/flushing are great but static UI/objects have thus far been an OLED’s nemesis (skeptical)
The new LG Neo panels are meant to be much more burn in resistant and I expect QD-OLED will implement the same tech. Definitely on my radar as an upgrade.
Don’t get me wrong….I love the OLED contrast and blacks. The LG’s are very nice but burn is still a thing with OLED. If you are ok with that then all good. I’ve compromised with QLED tech for tv and the 3821 for gaming…it’s very good (highfive) Here is a link to Linus coverage fairly recently….
It's great if you prefer OLED. Can you name a decent OLED monitor other than CX though? I don't know which of Linus video you referring but bear in mind that at that time there may not be a mention of QD-OLED hence no comparison but looking at above QD-OLED seems superior and early comparisons suggest it's brighter.
