[NAME]  The 18 was a beast of a 'laptop'. It's pretty huge, even compared to the 17. If you can pick one up for a decent price then they can be worth it. They are highly upgradeable but much harder to work on than the 17 as the CPU and GPU's are under the palmrest, which is a pain to get to.
hi, please i need a guide about my upgrade Alienware 17 R1. i just bought a gpu 970m 6gb gpu card to upgrade my old one 860m 2gb. i've problem with drivers cannot install and my gpu fan sometimes not working although the temp 80°c and touchpad not working with it.
17 R1, upgrade 860M 2GB to 970M 6GB?
