The Alienware R18 (2023+) Appreciation Thread

spec sheet is here.
18-inch, 16:10, non-touch, matte,
QHD+ 2560 x 1600 px, IPS, 165 Hz 3ms, 300+ nits, 100% DCI-P3
FHD+ 1920 x 1200 px IPS, 480 Hz 3ms, 300 nits, 100% DCI-P3
The 1440p/165hz IPS works for me, the 4080 mobile part should be able to hit 144hz at that resolution in the Division 2 and that's more than good enough for me as I can cap it 90fps or something.

The hardware is good but smashing the best part of 2-4k on a laptop with a 1 year warranty sends shivers down my spine.
Unless I have a weak day I am sticking to Apple and Alienware laptops
I believe:
X range was slim-line series
M range is not-slim line series.
The X looked more bling as it was a newer design but the heat soak is real. The M series will be phat, heavy but will have better thermals and less heat soak. i.e. the M18 will have the intel HX cpu options available and the X series will not and no AMD CPU options (M18 vs. X16).

If they do it will have slower parts in it or, will throttle at 110c in under 5 minutes with 7,500rpm fans at 100%
I don't mind the X series but it depends on Division 2 performance in the M18. If a 4070 laptop part can cut the mustard at 1440p then I would be open to switching to a 2023 X16 if the screen options are better. But I would not want to run a 4090 inside any X chassis.
some updates here: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Alien...lves-on-February-9-for-US-2-599.688357.0.html
4090 all the way down to 4050 will be available.
4080 looking a shed load cheaper than expected but it's pretty much going to perform like a desktop 4070 12gb. AMD and Intel CPU's will be available, AMD GPU's limited to the 3060 speed 7600M XT.
The amount of Vram Nvidia are providing the lower tier options is scandalous.
