- The Alienware M17 R3 packs the highest end components (RTX 2080 Super + i9-10980HK) that money can buy into the sleekest, lightest profile it can… Alienware’s goal: To make the supercar of gaming laptops. Did they succeed? Well, I can tell you it’s a high performance monster, but some odd design decisions can really dampen the fun on some configurations. Let's dive into this review!

I think the dell website shows rtx2080 super with max q design
The one included in this unit was not Max-Q (I know because it pulled 150W under load. Max-Q variants pull 80-100W. The m17 r2 from last year had a Max-Q in it, but the R3 has better cooking and can handle the full mobile version of the RTX 2080 Super. There is still a desktop version that pulls like 200W in the Area 51M.
@@GizmoSlipTechIn dell website the rtx 2070 super is non max q variant but when i upgrade to rtx 2080 super it comes with a max q and not the other one in us website dell
Hisham askar Idk what your looking at but it says max performance which is a normal card for the 2080 super
thanks for the review !
i'm mostly hesitating between a new M17 R-whatever's-most-recent and an area 51m, i don't really give a damn about actual portability or battery life as i just want to be able to take it with me easily from one room to the other or when i travel. that said i'm really turned off by the two power bricks for the 51m, that feels so ridiculous...
what i can't quite sort out it the temperature issue you appeared to have with either models in your previous reviews, was that fixed ? i don't understand why would anyone buy a top-grade GPU if it's going to have to throttle down in order to not catch on fire. in this case wouldn't a weaker (and cheaper) GPU achieve the same result by NOT overheating ?
Got my first laptop, OMG THIS IS GONNA BE AMAZING~~
I love the high quality of this video. The editing is phenomenal and the statistics are very VERY clear and easy to follow.
This is probably the best review you can get on this laptop.. thumbs up
Extremely happy with this review and makes me feel better that I went with the M17 R3 instead.
Lmao, it seems like after buying an Alienware device everyone goes on CZcams to make sure they made the right decision
@@Popzin101 to be fair the same could be said about any expensive item a person buys, but that is a funny observation. Lol
Prodigious Wolf that’s true 😂
Chellah I think it’s cause a lot of people bash Alienware and just look at the negative that customers have to say while ignoring the positive reviews of customers and youtubers. Alienware is like the apple of laptops/desktops
@@Popzin101 the older versionsbhad heat and throttle issues so that's why
Just got mine and it’s amazing! Best game laptop ever
Me watching on a 12 year old laptop and wondering what the hell am I doing here.
Lmao upgrade man
@@zeppelin1ization Yeah, later I guess :(
Cyanide man I’m 34 and always wanted an Alienware since i was in 7th grade and finally bought one. I spent $2300 and don’t regret it lol. It is a beast and hope it lasts me for years.
@@zeppelin1ization That sounds nice but it ain't time for me to buy one so yeah
i'm surprised it even plays youtube videos, maybe 144p =p
Purchased this PC last month new for 1900$ on sale . It is still amazing, beats out most modern 3070 builds . Than you this review helped me before I made my purchase
i got one from the dell outlet and it happens to be a new unit, some spoiled child order one, didn't like it, returned and.. JACKPOT for me! i paid $1700 wit the i9 and 2070 gpu, i don't think i need to buy another computer for a while.
wound up here because i just pulled the trigger on an m15 r3 with 2080 Super but there are NO GOOD REVIEWS like this of the m15 r3. not super relevant, but i enjoyed this review, your straightforward style, and the vid quality/set design. like + sub!
My life was in pause waiting for this video...thank you mate
Hope you enjoyed it!
Great review! I have an Alienware 17 R3 (2016) laptop and I noticed that the extra macro keys on the left side of the keyboard are gone in this new model. Of course, my laptop is super bulky and I see the M17 R3 is much thiner and lighter, so maybe the lack of those extra keys is for the better. I don't love the trackpad with no physical buttons and light, but it doesn't seem like a deal breaker. I hope Dell keeps improving his line of Alienware laptops since I'd like to get a new one in a couple of years :-).
Ordered the 4K maxed out version, definitely emptied my wallet lol. I just wish the display was OLED like the m15, I wouldn’t mind paying extra for it.
Unfortunately there are no 17 Inch OLED screens, Samsung doesn't make those.
I wonder now if 17 inch OLED screens will become a thing. Or will we start to see mini-LED screens instead. like that MSI mini LED 17 inch creator notebook? I believe Apple will be going mini LED at some point.
@@connerhuston2613
LED screens are years away and may not be suitable for laptops.
I had buyers remorse after I dropped about $3500 on my m17 today. After watching your review I feel a lot better. Thank you!
how are your temps?
Pissed I got a m15 R2 back in March, definitely picking this up in the next month.
Pls do one of Alienware 15 r3 and area 51m r2. Great content as always and quick videos too with a lot of details. Thank you
I don't know which one I want
Clinton Brown I am clear tho, after the launch of 30 series I will wait for next year for r4 maybe lol 😂
I'm interested how that will go. Those 3000 cards are way more powerful but they use a considerable amount of power.
I should really stop watching videos of things I can NEVER get😔😭

Perfect timing for you. I have an older 2018 r5 17 with the 1080 all decked out. But let me know how your like yours. This new model looks so clean
Great video! Mine just came in and I decided to watch this before opening it up! Keep up the good work!!!
What is Nvidia Optimus and g sync??
Well your rapid head movement worked!... I finally remembered to subscribe :).
This is so awesome I still got my alienware 17 R3 and damn its beginning to crumble slowly and im really concerned about laptops but since its so expensive i guess its better to get a pc instead of a laptop...
Alienware is notoriously cheap and shitty i suggest building a pc
@@michaelmartinoff9424 yeah your right I am saving money to do just that
Really? I haven't really had mine degrade since I got it in June. I only got the 2070 super and I love the performance but not so much the thermals, had to get a thermal pad for it.
@@limitlessart6817 yeah that's my problem basically... It gets so hot that it turns off by itself and that's what worrying me truth be told I didn't mean that it's like ready to die or smth but it doesn't play games as it used to ... I have it since 2015
How bad are your thermals
You have no idea how many times I checked your channels recent videos tab to see this
Did the review meet your expectations? lol
@@GizmoSlipTech yes bro🌚
Would like to see a review of M15 R3 !
Would like to have seen you Benchmark “Doom Eternal” on this laptop
Bought mine and before the second week of having it had passed the NvIdia 2080 GPU broke, currently waiting for Dell to build another one and ship it. Really disappointed with the situation but Dell’s customer services advisors have been alright so far so I’m still rolling with it. Second time is a charm, at least I hope so.
How it Does get broke? I am little bit nervous as i Have ordered one
The Klim Minstral helps out quite a bit for cooling, as it is sealed on to the bottom of the laptop, and all it’s blower air goes directly through the Alienware 17. We use the high end spec models with the 4G raid 0 config for Forensic use. After trying various us coolers we settled on a slight under-volt and the Minstral sealed cooler. Keeps it “reasonably cool” and dependable - though the whine of the Minstral blower fans when rendering is absolutely annoying 🤣
Holy stats batman! Great review with specifics and benchmarks. Keep it up, Subbed.
Great review and really interesting to see the benchmark comparisons. First review I have seen of the 2080 Super and i9 configuration
I don't understand people who complain about battery life in a gaming laptop... When the hell will you ever travel with your laptop, without a charger?
We shouldn't just consider the 300Hz display for gaming, people should keep in mind that the UI on Windows will pretty much always run at 300fps as well, without dropping any frames. Also the 300Hz panel has a lower pixel response time.
There is a problem on 6:31 , i don't know where did you take from that numbers but i have the ASUS Zephyrus G14 with the Ryzen 7 4800HS and on cinebench R20 gives 3975 score on multi-thread.. more than the i9 9880HK so...
He probably tested it again and again then averaged it
Thanks for the review. I just received the M15 R3 with 2080 Super (Great Discount - It was cheaper to get this than configuring with a 2070). I will be running it through a number of tests and now having some numbers to compare them to. I do miss not having Windows hello and do not understand why it is not there.
Hi, don't mind sharing how did you get the discount? Was it on sales at the Dell website?
@@bobbylow175 Hi, There was a promotion for this system which made it cheaper than configuring separately and I added my Veteran's discount as well. Unforunately that promotion was only a few days. You have to keep looking as the promotions change so often. Another thing to be aware of is the Rakuten discounts, which are rebates checks you are mailed. This percentage changes all the time as well.
@@petersonfamily6223 Thank you for your quick reply, much appreciated. I have looked into my local Australian website however they only have 15% discounts which isn't much considering the high price point. I already own an older 17 R3 which was the top of the line back few years ago but am looking for something smaller/lighter. Was hoping for the older 14" models but they no longer sell them. I also like the older models design with a more angular alien looking look.
This and the new G7 series are great gaming laptops, the thing is thoughtC with both the new Alienware r3 series, and the new Dell G7 series is that they both run super hot, but in the Alienware command center you can change the fan speed so that when you’re gaming fans are 100% and it cools it significantly,but it is kinda noisy if that’s something that’s bothers you, and I used throttlestop to underclock it so it wasn’t putting out so much power, my G7 was thermal throttling at 100° for warzone, and after I did this it runs around 75-80° consistently, and rarely goes above that for any game I play now
Don’t matter what you got 🤩they all have unique designs!
Just bought this laptop yesterday in my dreams, trust me the refresh rate seems like you're dreaming(°▼°)
i have a gs66 with 300hz and i can confirm
Who cars loser
alright review the m15 r3 next. great video btw
Me seeing this 6 months after I bought my 16inch MacBook Pro 🤧 only downside for me is how different it is compared to windows cause growing up schools only got windows, but for sure my next laptop finna be Alienware
I wanted this... until the 3000s were revealed. Hopefully they will be cheaper soon now?
i doubt it because rtx 3000 laptops are still awhile away
_Activate toaster mode for more fps_
lol!!
I’d love to see more of those 4K 120 hz displays that the razor blade pro uses. I’d take that any day over a 300hz screen.
Dell has a sale going on this laptop currently for $2250 (you probably already knew that). Would you consider buying this laptop for that price? With the top config like your test model, how would you compare it to the '21 Strix G17? I'm concerned about the thermals mainly affecting longevity on this one as compared to the G17, which you stated had the best thermals you'd ever seen in that kind of laptop.
Hey thanks for this video I love how informative it is. This really helped in my purchase decision of this laptop with a 2070 super and i7 10750h since I got it on sale. Everything is perfect, my only concern are the cpu temps which can spike up to 95C+ easily when under load. I wanted to know what's your opinion on running laptops at these temperatures for long periods of time and how it will have an impact on its longevity. Thanks.
my same thoughts, is it normal to play at almost 100 degrees?
@@tdias25 it’s not thaths max cpu temp normal temp are max85c. But u cann use it because cpu work on 100c without any problem. But its way better when he work litle lower.
Mine comes tomorrow after waiting for 2 weeks!! I can't wait!!!
very interesting that when u've made stress test u written down max temp for cpu 91 degrees and when you show videos from games temp is around 98 degrees and i guess it's throttling as hell.
Maybe if you repaste it with liquid metal thermal paste; the temperature will be better.
First con I noticed... keyboard RGB static mode (not flashing) is one color (cyan)
I know this is just a line or two of code to fix. So I'm hoping they update the alien commander and give me full control of the RGB.
Got an avg of 117fps (FarCry5 on Ultra) the other day with the GE66 Raider(2070 Super) and it costs considerably less than anything in its class
Also cpu temps rarely ever go above 90 during gaming. Price per performance value has to be the best this year by far
the model you have has it as well. Dell has confirmed. that if you change the hz to 60hz than you can take advantage of the Optimus
I'm using this laptop with exact same configuration for viewing this video. Like he said this is a beast for gaming.
Do I go with 300hz display or 4k 60 as I mostly play single player story games
@@vanshgupta3453 144hz 1080p or 60 Hz 4k hmmm. Tough choice... prolly should go with 4k for your preference but personally I would go 144hz with ultra setting graphics. 60hz on a 3000 pc is kinda silly in my opinion, not like u can change the screen.
I have that exact laptop and I love it. I have all this computing power and don't know what to do with it. Interested in learning different things I can use this beast for instead of just a few games and vr ocassionally.
I love mine. What an absolute beast!!
You posted this comment around a month ago and have u encountered any problems with It or are you still happy with it's performance?
@@cammy4896 no problems and no issues with performance at all. Still flawless 😊

Feeling the same way with mine lol.
How much did it cost?

Thanks for the thoughtful comment!
Google " eluktronics laptops" you'll probably change that thought
@@wesleyfurnish8228 I owned the Max 17 and the screen is shit. It had horrible backlight bleed.
Wesley Furnish well this one is running higher wattage than the eluktronics machine, I don’t see how it could be better other than liquid metal tim.

Unfortunately, the Thunderbolt 3 port does not support eGPU enclosures, and when you add the Alienware Graphics Amplifier to be able to add a
GPU it will disable the onboard RTX 2070 Super. This is disappointing because doing 3D rendering, having an extra GPU and it's cores would
have made this a very nice graphics workstation. I was told by Dell support that this would not be the case, and that the T3 port would
support eGPU and I found out the hard way that it will not. Battery life is abysmal, which is to be expected but under moderate use it's about 1
hour. The RTX 2080 Super option, I was told by dell online, is not the MAX-Q, but comparing rendering benchmarks, for example of that card (Octanebench of 333) vs the RTX 2070 Super (Octanebench of 320), is not going to be worth the extra $300 over the price of the RTX 2070 Super. Having been able to have a second RTX 2070 Super would have allowed a very economical way to have performance rivaling the RTX 2080 Ti using applications that leverage NVIDIA cuda cores.
*Great review GizmoSlipTech.* My only concern is that, *whether I should be getting with i9 or i7?* I am any which ways going with the *UHD screen, 32 GB Ram and 2080 Super.* My purpose, would be *Video & Photo editing* along with playing a bit of games.
I had chosen this over *Dell XPS 17 and Razer Blade Pro 17* (It's too expensive with the 4K 120hz screen)
Please advise.
Just ordered mine this morning can't wait
How is it?
@@pumpkinthethird Its worth the money i've put into, great performances on my games i recommend it 👍
Who cars loser
So awesome, i got the m15 2060 and it arrives tomorrow :)))
Is it good?
Duke Shibalyer Amazing! mine was the 1800 dollar version runs any game some games even on ultra. The one bad thing is battery life is about 1hr and 30min and that's with just doing homework and web browsing/youtube. so don't expect battery to be good. If you are just going to play games i say build a pc you can build like the same thing i have in pc form for like 1300 dollars probably, but if you want something for school and games it's amazing.
@@tallbutshort1124 Thank you so much
Just got this model :D I cant wait to see what it can do.
I'd never want Optimus on a gaming laptop at this level. It causes too many issues.
You can still get Optimus on here just have to disable the 300HZ to 60HZ
Can you try manually dropping it down to 60hz it works on the 2070 with 300hz please try and let us know we all asking
I can do that too, i have a 2070 super
@@zeppelin1ization yes surely it should work on the 2080 model Gizmosliptech please test
Late to the party but I have the i9 2080 super and you can change it to only 60hz but haven't tried it out on battery to check for a difference in longevity.
No one can resist this Laptop magnetic beauty and powers
I'm thinking about buying this laptop. I'd like to save a little money though. I am considering the version with intel i7, Gtx 2070, 16gb, 2000 ssd. The 2000 ssd have an enormous surcharge, i really need them? or is a smaller one sufficient in a notebook?
Is 32 gb important or is the 16 gb version sufficient?
Which configuration could you recommend to me to have a lot of power but also to save a little bit? thank you
Great Video
Oh wow, that's a really neat laptop, but seeing 90c+ CPU temps during CS:GO gameplay looks scary. How many hours can a laptop run at 90c+ before it starts wearing out?
I looked at the reviews on best buy and they say their laptop broke within a few months
Great review! I am on the fence on buying this model. Between 4k or FHD display. Would you recommend the 4k for for mainly CZcams, Movies, maybe some WOW, COD, some steam titles? I don't really e-Sports games. So would a 4k model be adequate.
Amazing review. Move over Linus. I wouldn’t dream of gaming without the laptop plugged in. Battery life shouldn’t even be a thing.
Do you recommend waiting for the RTX 30 series graphics cards, or should I go for this laptop as is? Also, is this machine upgradeable?
If youre going for laptop gaming then go for rtx 2060 115w gpu. This is not worth your money. This card is not even on par with a desktop rtx2060. If you're a hardcore gamer and you want higher fps.. just go for a desktop to be honest. For this much money you can spend a real desktop rtx 2080ti with better specs overall
This card is 115w 2080 super which is terrible voltage for rtx 20series. I know its a laptop and needs to be having a lower voltage but instead you can go for a rtx 2080 200w laptop gpu. that is much better than this 115w variant but again.. not equivalent to a desktop card.
The RTX 2080 SUPER MAX-P version is currently available for $2670 on Dell due to their discounts (can bring it down to $2500 if you use Dell financing). For this, you’re getting desktop RTX 2070 SUPER performance (the other reply is incorrect, even the mobile RTX 2070 super beats a desktop RTX 2060). Now whether this is worth it depends on your needs. You can get a similar power desktop for $1500 or so, even lower if you want an ugly looking one. Regarding 3000 series it’ll come for laptops next April so it’s quite a while.
This machine isn’t upgradeable, however you can connect it to AGA and upgrade graphics that way (at the cost of mobility).
Wait for rtx 60 series.will launch in 15 years!
Thanks a lot, guys :)
We knew it was gonna perform better than most laptops but the important info was on the new thermals, only a diagram? You didn't go in-depth with thermals and how they perform, never heard you say anything about thermals experience.
I try to find a balance of giving the key information, without going overboard on details. I used to go more indepth, but I think it turned a lot of people off from watching my videos because they don't like talking about thermal performance for 10 mins. I wonder if rotating screenshots of the HWInfo during various loads/fan profiles while I give a brief explanation of what they mean would be a good balance.
@GizmoSlipTech Make a separated video for m17 R3 thermals. We would love to see.
Also pleeeeeease, review the Alienware Area 51M R2 (2080 Super i9-10900K)
Ordering mine tomorrow thanl you for the great review upgrading from an asus rog m501 cant wait to use it
Who cars loser
Hey man, a very big thanks to you for making such a good and to the point review, it was really helpful, now i can buy this beasty without thinking anything more. Btw the outro is a cool one, may I know the name of the music and artist?
I opted for the New G5 with i7 and 2070 Max Q and to buy 32GB RAM, 2TB NVME extra disk and some accessories. I spent considerably less than this alienware. Besides, if you pay 3K+ for a gaming PC, better buy a desktop where you can have more options for upgrade and cooling.
key pad on top row number #2 doesn't work. using my right side number pad.. any suggestions?
I love the detail of the review, man. This is what somr of us like to do while we wait for our pcs to ship haha
One thing though, why does everybody pretend like battery life matters while gaming? With laptops like this, definitely manageable but you take a BIG performance hit if you're plugged in! Battery mode is for everything else where you don't need full horsepower
Ohhh this is that guy who used to drop test phones
Great review! What was your opinion on the speakers? I was wondering if they are any different than the R3 15? Thank you for letting me know :)
Is 4k 60hz gaming experience on this laptop very terrible or manageable? Because, I'm just a causal gamer and I've heard that the display on the 300hz laptop is not good...
I agree with you %100 on the 144hz. It's really a generation gap. Younger buyers like 300hz because the professional gamers they watch online. Us old guys take the 144hz gsync all day.
The laptop actually looks nice except for the over sized heat vent that is tacked onto the back of the unit.
Loook at those temps 😂 I’m struggling with hitting 95c while gaming and looking everywhere on the web as to why or if it is just me. What do we need to do to lower these temps or is this just how they perform regardless.
The future: umm we have rtx 3080 laptop
I just wanna a Ryzen 5900 with RTX 3080
Thank you for this great review! For RPGs like Kingdom Come Deliverance or Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, should I go with FHD or UHD if using RTX 2070 Super?
Great review mate ! Looks very tempting. Cooling doesn't seem too bad. MicroSD? What is the point of that though
Wow, thanks for commenting! I appreciate your reviews and think they’re great! Congrats on 50k subs! I literally laughed out loud when I saw the MicroSD slot, not kidding lol.
GizmoSlipTech Thanks, that means a lot to me 👍 Any idea how the m15 r3 gets on ? Does it have the same 100w PL1 on its i9 ? Keep up the good work !
I’m not sure about new M15 R3. It does make me curious if they can cool the components as well, though I doubt it in a 15” chassis. The m17 R3 is already riding that thermal limit.
@@GizmoSlipTech yeah, that's what I thought. Just about to look at the GE66, certainly has plenty of RGB bling!
You do some great videos man!
Anyone knows if you can have the charger in for years without battery being destroyed?
Also, is there a setting when the charger is in, it only charges when below example 25% battery and charges up to 100% It goes up and down like that.
Do you prefer Alienware in white or black?
Can't wait for an area 51m r2
I would love to see a comparison with MSI Titan and Acer Triton 2020 versions with a Long Live the King(Godzilla) clip comment when Alienware beats them again
It would be nice owning this laptop, too bad working as a delivery boy doesn't pay that well lol
Btw your review of laptop is awesome and very detailed
Finance it with 0% interest in 12 months
I made huge mistake and bought the newest area 51m with 4k display 10900k CPU & rtx2080 super. But its not worth the extra money m17r3 is way better. The a51m is wicked heavy & requires two huge power bricks. Cumbersome.
Please review the Dell g7 2020
Edit: New Subscriber
Can you confirm (with CrystalDiskInfo) if you're getting PCIe 3.0 x4 on your m.2 NVMe SSD? The configuration I got had two SSDs in RAID and a third SSD and they all seem to be in PCIe 3.0 x2. I'm thinking if I remove one or two of them then it'll speed up the remaining one(s) but it's a lot of work and hoping I can see if someone can show me theirs working in x4 before I even start the process.
@GizmoSlipTech Any chance you're going to be doing an m15 r3 review or have looked at it and can comment on how it stacks up against the razer blade 15 advanced? Good review mate
I might sometime in the future here. No promises though. And thanks!
UK dell doesn't allow to configure the i9, rtx 2080 with the 300hz display. It's reserved for the 4k/60hz only. Only way to get the i9 with 300hz is to drop down to the 2070. I want the 2080 though! Are they region specific?

How’s the material finish on the laptop? I heard that the R3 versions have a special coating to prevent the surface from wear and yellowing.
Hello ! Thank you for so nice review! Before making up my mind on this one, II'd like to know, did you get any issue with Alienware command center, for changing rgb keybord lights colors or ajusting fan power ?
Can you check out the Zephryus Duos?
Hey gismo should I buy this rtx 2080s r3 m17 or rtx 3070 r4 m17. Pls replay.
Is there a cheaper laptop which has same specs as this one
I’m a big fan of your review videos. I’m looking for a good gaming lap top to stock trade on. I need it to be fast, high refresh rates and not overheat and slow down the performance while executing quick trades. And I need the number pad on the side and on not on top. Do you think the m17 with GeForce 2060 and the 300hz refresh rate would be a good choice to do such things on?
I don’t see why not, should be a solid machine.
