Alienware Area 51M Review - One Year Later! Would I Buy Again?

- I have had my Alienware Area 51M (RTX 2080 + i9-9900K) since March 2019. My goal for this video is to talk pros and cons of the device after using the device and seeing how well it handles the wear and tear of daily use and I also ran similar benchmarks to see if performance has declined since I first purchased it. Here we go!
The new Area 51M R2 with the RTX 2080 Super and i9-10900K 10 core CPU certainly seems interesting! Any of you looking to buy the Area 51M? Let me know in the comments down below!
Link to my original review of the Area 51M: • Alienware Area 51M Rev...

I also have an area 51m.
1. The reason why you have two power bricks is due to travel purposes. You would not be allowed to bring a 420W power brick as a carry-on when flying.
2. The 51m surpasses most laptops, and is better than some desktops. If you're complaining weight and size, purchase a Mac airbook instead. Just don't expect Alienware performance.
Exactly. This is a perfect desktop replacement.
Just found this channel from the Black Friday vids, high quality contents, no bs, straight to the point, love it, keep up the good work man
Loved this format of review. EXACTLY what me as a prospective buyer needs to hear about. :). Thank you!
Thanks for providing a written review. very useful when in a time crunch and looking for specific info.
Watching it on Area 51m laptop. I can't complain about my laptop and I can't switch back to normal laptops now.
same.
Trust me you can 😂
Gosh, my desktop with the same components weights about 46 pounds itself and that's peace of art several times lighter! Though my desktop is a little bit faster in tests, but still it's amazing how far the technologies have gone.
In regards to the color changing the blue when you go into standby or sleep mode, that issue is also known on other products, especially the steel series keyboards. I've had the issue on my desktop years ago numerous times. It seems as if that it's definitely a software issue on all manufacturer brands.
So CZcams actually thinks that I could afford an Alienware hun
Dell does crazy financing from what i hear.
Lol
Cry me a river 🙄
You can if you work hard and save.
EBAY 13R3 600-1000 ,plus you can warranty them through Dell
Thanks for the information 👍🏾. I just pick mines up yesterday and I love it. May I ask we're can I find that alien background picture on your laptop?
As someone who lugged around a backpack that probably weighed about 20-25 lb due to having heavy textbooks, binders, etc. in it in high school and college, carrying something on my back that only weighs 50-67% of that is nothing. Just for scale, I myself am 5’2” and only weigh about 117-120 pounds, and was the same weight and height in my school days (am now 27 years old).
you are super short for someone that old... are you sure you’re that old buddy?
I used carry a very heavy bag to school too... these people are very fragile nowadays can't even carry a laptop 🤔
@@Ballsackgamin genetics buddy, not everyone is fortunate enough to be tall :( unfortunately I also fall into this category.
it's totally fine king big up, i'm 171 cm too so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Bruh Moment lol
Nice that his back. Enjoyable videos
hi there nice review. do you think that you will do the new area 51m R2 review anytime soon? thanks
thumbs up for kick ass intro and smooth shots!
I have the same oil hand marks on mine as well. Not a fan but not an issue. I now run a 49 inch curved monitor for iracing and I have no issues with frames (80+) on all games.
I was looking at the Alienware M17 R3 , what are your thoughts?
I'd love to know if yours is open to sale?
I need such workstation, but can't afford a new one. My budget might make it for a used one. Please let me know.
Great, informative review. Thank you.
is the Area 51M muxed or does the dedicated graphics card signal have to go through the integrated card before the display? Also thanks for pointing out the deep keyboard, I was wondering why I felt more like back in the day typing with typewriter compared to my previous machine. I can speculate why now.
My dream laptop that will always be a dream. Great reviews sir. More power to you!
Don't worry, next 20 when I win the lottery, I will gift you and myself one 😁.
i’m getting it for christmas
For the people who have this issue 9:48 with the command center directly updating without asking you first. Cut the internet, turn the wifi off or go into airplane mode and reopen the command center. You're welcome.
I personally will NEVER buy an Alienware again. I bought the Alienware R17 when it came out. The battery was fried in a year and a half and wasn't covered by the warranty, the secondary hard drive that is the only one in it that's big enough to actually HOLD anything was dead after 3 years (mind you, I have a desktop I built 13 years ago that the hard drives I used in it were used when I installed them) and was of a brand I've never even heard of, the power connector on the motherboard is loose and needs re-soldered and I need to replace the power brick cause the connector is starting to get misshapen. Now, I'm not rough on my things. In fact, my Sega Genesis still works and looks almost new. So, there's no good reason for a laptop that costs $2,200 to have that bad of failures after only 3 years
Totally agree!
You prolly did sum to it I have an Alienware 14 and my shit be holding on tight original battery died round a year back and I messed up the TouchPad but otherwise its been alr
@@__-um4ep didn't do anything to it. I actually take good care of my stuff. Still even have the box. Fact is, they just became a shit brand after they were bought out so that DELL could use all the better parts for their OWN branded laptops. It's the same that HP did with Compaq
@@vampire365 that sucks you got a bad one. Meanwhile I have an Alienware m18x I bought in 2012, upgraded to windows 10 and still use to this day with no issues whatsoever, other than the outdated dual 760 Nvidia cards that Nvidia stopped updating 3 years ago. It’s my second Alienware since 2006, the year Dell bought them. I bought extended warranties for both and literally never used either.
@@sacrotes5459 it's not just me. The last few years, I've seen a bunch of bad reviews for similar reasons. I find it pathetic when I mention to the guy in their parts department the issue with the battery alone (which they don't sell replacements for through themselves) and he tells me he's shocked the battery even lasted a year since they weren't designed to really make it even that long.
I had same issue with RGB lights on keyboard and logo of my Alienware m15 2018 once I bought it.
Thankfully I had warranty and they fixed it but Alienware Control Center drivers still messed it up.
I've been using it for 2 years and I notice it thermal throttle, so I took a look inside and found out that dust was clogging the CPU fan. It was somewhat fixed after I cleaned it up.
Also the heat the laptop generate is not good for the battery.
I still like it regardless, it's not the best but it's functional and allows me to perform my daily tasks and that's all it matters.
I dont know what's happening to mine but even when just playing Overwatch, FPS just drops to 15 - 20. And I have RTX 2080. I dont know if its the temp that's causing this. If so, how can I solve this?
I have both the 2020 Razer blade 17 pro and the Alienware area 51 with the 2080, core i7 and 16 gb of RAM. I've had so much issues to where I've been having to troubleshoot monthly. I'm thinking about selling mine and keeping the Razer since performance is similar. I totally agree with the bilk and 2 power cables. I found myself keeping it plugged in most of the time and barely moving it around.
I think there needs to be a distinction between “portable” and “mobile”
This laptop is meant to be a portable desktop replacement and obviously you can’t use it while mobile, it has to be plugged in and stationary.
What did you expect? Only a idiot wouldn’t know this thanks for explaining the obvious
So why can't you use it while Mobile, like let's say at a Class.
Darryl Jack i had a 17in asus and i plugged it into the wall during class
@@Doki_Dokers You calling my mum an idiot then? Rather degrading sweeping statement wouldn't you say?
Why does it have to be plugged in
10:05. Had this actually happen once but with a AW 15 r4. The people next to me, good friends of mine now, said “dude, your laptop is about to take off” while in a college lecture. The teacher paused the lecture to see where it was coming from. Luckily, the room was dark as there was a presentation happening and I closed the laptop to the alienFX lights and the whoosh sound
Just got mine can’t wait for it to arrive
Can you get thermal repaste through warranty? Had mine around 12 months now and getting the same throttling. Also, AWCC DEFINITELY needs getting worked on.
before starting, awesome Sichuan sauce tshirt. yes it is Sichuan but not szechuan
I love my Area 51m. I also have extra power supplies kept in my backpack or placed in my home at other locations that I would move my laptop over to. It removes the hassle of moving around the laptop since I'm just unplugging it from one location and placing it in my backpack and/or moving it to another location already set up to just plug it in. No fuss. It's a desktop replacement. I have never used this on my lap. It's got loads of power, the most powerful laptop I've ever used. Also I prefer the desktop CPU for when I'm using an external graphics via the Alienware Graphics Amplifier, makes a bit of a difference when compared to a notebook CPU trying to power a desktop GPU. Also! It doesn't get hot to the touch when playing games unlike the thin and light laptops that can literally burn my fingers and/or lap.
My own post hasn't aged well for me. In truth since getting my system I've had something broken. After a 4th service call I'm getting fed up with the quality. I love the idea of this system but I'm starting to hate the way Dell didn't account for the thermals, the audio board constantly fails. The Ethernet can never keep an active connection. This thing works great when I'm just using it with an amplifier but without it this thing has had nothing but issues. I got a month of warranty left despite being ignored service for 4 months and I'm now trying to either get my money back or a replacement.
Extend your warranty if you’re having that many issues my man haha.
Hi, I have the same laptop with the same colour and the same issue with discolouration, but fortunately I was like to notice them before grantee runs out and I did connect the Dell.
At first they tried to ignore me but after several attempts back and forward, they agreed to replace the cover with a new one and when they sent technician to replace it , actually they realised the item was faulty from factory.
So I would suggest, if you have extended your warranty, then just contact the customer support, and definitely they would replace it.
Hi, I have a brand new M17 R3 and I'm a little concerned about longevity due to heat. I have undervolted the CPU to assist, but do you think having a new thermal paste application in a year or so would help keep things running smoothly? I love the laptop by the way, it's an absolute monster!
M17 r3 has better cooling solution than the r2, undervolt and repaste LM or kryonaut and ur laptop will run well 70-80°c gaming.
I think as an owner of an A51M R1, the review is mostly "Fair" but i would point out several things. First, the screen he has is the first really poor color one, not the better panel released about 1 quarter later, colors and contrast are quite good on it actually. Second, opting out for an Nvidia with constant thermal issues and frequent degradation and system issues in a year is really no better. Third, acting like a heavy laptop which is literally designed as a desktop replacement, its just nonsensical to compare it to a 'thin' laptop in general. It's like comparing a muscle car to a turbo-four, yeah, the muscle car uses more gas, and the DTR weighs more than the overly-thin BGA laptop.
It's worth noting a hidden strength of the A51M R1; that is the ability to self-repair and do cleaning and things like repasting. Crack these small laptops, you might never get it right again, the A51M is much more maintenance friendly and still kicks 90% of what's out there in the balls repeatedly, even now.
hey im thinking of purchasing an R2 with a 10700k and a 2070s, how are your thermals? did you have to undervolt it at all? has anything else broken? ive been spending days researching this and im still on the fence with this thing. Ive heard alot of stories from dell technicians drilling through a motherboard to someones sound chip catching on fire. My main issue would be reliability while you can easily swap parts out im worried if something like the motherboard fails then it would be rather difficult to find another compared to a desktop where i can throw another in there. Since these are still kind of new i am kind of scared things will still be failing on them, i guess they do come with a 1year warranty so might as well break it in during that, idk let me know ur thoughts especially with the heat since thats my biggest worry, cheers.
I've loved my Area 51m so far, my only real gripe would be Alienware/Dells proprietary software and the the monitor panel.. other than that it's been great. Had mine since April of 2019. Mine is equipped with the 9700k and RTX 2080. I installed 64 GB of RAM on it, and I bought it through XoticPC so I had the thermal paste and thermal pads upgraded. If I had the option the only thing I'd want changed is the screen panel, I'd kill for a modern 120/144hz OLED.
man ive got 3k bucks to spend and Im really thinking about this machine @__@ But is there serious issue with the monitor ? I mean I'd use it only to game in my dark bedroom. I only want a laptop cause of how much I enjoy gaming in bed ....
@@Dlabelmard you might want to save a little bit, I heard the Area-51m R2 is better and fixes issues and that's like 4K.
Too bad i have the R1 model and you cant upgrade to the new graphics cards. Dell ignores me when i ask them about it. They lied about being totally upgradeable. There is a lawsuit going out against dell.
Well, mines still going strong, everything works. Still my only complaint is Dells crap software.. hoping for an R3 version eventually. Though I probably won't upgrade until Nvidia 4000 series come out, I usually like to skip a gen or two before upgrading. At least then I can see a significant improvement, usually. Been drooling over the newer panels available on the thin and lights. Sadly neither the A51 or GT76 Titan have seen any significant updates in awhile. Here's to hoping they don't die out.. The new X17 is kinda interesting, maybe a comparison between it's next gen hardware and cooling solution would be cool versus the Area 51m.
I would be very happy if you give a positive or negative answer. Thank you
Just bought a 51m r2 a few days ago! Very excited!
What is the cost?
What is the cost?
Got mine for 2.6k USD 2080 super and i710700
@GizmoSlipTech, would you still recommend to get it now? I could get one for 1350€, thats $1530
forgot to mention you upgraded the ram as well as the storage capacity since month 1
I just got myself an Alienware area 51M R2 I was just wondering if there's any way changing the rainbow effect Directions I see yours is going from left to right but mine only goes right to left is there anywhere I can change the direction
I would like one in Black so the RGB can stand out more.🙂
Yup that’s what I had. Looked amazing. Plus the black one doesn’t discolor like the white one does.
JUSTSWITCHED! They ran out of the black so I got the white 😭
@@withdime1176 I personally dig the new white look, got myself an m15 in it. They had beaten the dead horse with the gunmetal gray
@@rajgill7576 strongly disagree, the gun metal gray was amazing and looks much better in my opinion.

I love my Alienware M17 but I have to admit, the Alienware software is some of the WORST software I have ever seen and I have no idea why they are so inept at making it work.

@@kyleseckler8058 Terrible UI. It's buggy, doesn't work half the time. Doesn't allow me to use IXTU when I have later versions of the software so I'm stuck on an old version. And so on...

Is your Alienware R2 or R3?
@@xitrance91 R1
New coating on R2 so hopefully issue with stains has been sorted.
im assuming this is the 51m r1? i am trying to decide between an 51m2 and the m15 r3
Do you have any thoughts on the new Area 51m R2. I'm basically looking for a laptop I can now and then play games on, but Need it to run Adobe Premier pro for video editing for my marketing videos.
Should be the Laptop Portable?
@@Joe-hb6ek Well yeah the whole point of me getting a Laptop is because I need that portability for the business im in.
The area 51m r2 is definitely worth it because of the new cooling solution and 10th gen CPUs but i would want to get it maxed out because when the new r3 releases Alienware stops supporting upgrades and completely disregards the last revision area 51m owners
@@Doki_Dokers I guess its a good thing I ended up Going with a different dell then that had better upgrades.
XXXChef22 well enjoy your new laptop!
Library? Would you even take this DTR laptop to library? I mean, the issue with software sucks of course but the example is funny :)
thnx for the video
when will you be getting "clevo NH551f with 3950x,can't imagine the performance bump with 4900x/4950x even @65W) and also Clevo x170sm with 10900K+rtx2080 200W?
there is an updated version for Middle-weight N970tf with 10900k+rtx2070 which I believed is called model N960sf1 in 16.1" chassis.
all three are interesting.... there is an utltrabook with 73Wh battery,military-grade certificate and intel 10th gen U series which competes with the likes of T/X series of Thinkpad I think which is interesting in itself as it claims more than 10 hours. there is a Tongfang chassis with only 4800H and no dedicated gpu which gives more than 12Hours of battery life,Techtablets had reviewed it this week.
so many useful+interesting models are presented to us in such time.
What would you purchase if getting a new laptop today?
Good question
really good review. will check out others too. thx!
Thanks! I’d recommend checking out my 3 most recent videos
Hey Gizmo. I also have this laptop with a lot of the same control issues you have. All you have to do to fix the lights, the keyboard, and the fans is to reinstall the Alienware control center. You can delete the current control center and reinstall it again and it should fix ALL of your problems. Like seriously I haven’t had a problem with my computer since I reinstalled the Alienware control center. Hope my comment helps you out!
Dont forget to never update the command center, that usually fucks it up.
Sir at Amazon price Area 51 m 2080 super 32gb ram is itoriginal? Answer me pls.
Hey gismo,should I buy the m17 2080s r3 or m17 3070 r4.pls replay.
Will the battery life be longer if I get the core i7 rtx 2070 super version
And if I get that version will I need to have the chargers plugged in
Drop in performance is what happens when you load up the Storage, SSD Takes a major hit on Performance when they fill up. Causing the whole system to slow down, also Dust does a lot, Thermal Paste should be reapplied to Desktop Processors so that's kind of a problem
hey if you read this, please do a video when the 30 series comes out with the alienware external gpu and a new 30 series gpu please and thanks
Hey... Gr8 review....
Can i buy it to run. More of heavy architectural softwaress. Like cad. V ray. And all...
It's basically a high end desktop in the form factor of a laptop, that is, only by design does it look like a laptop.
So yes, it should run these softwares with no problem.
I would recommend this highly. I own three of them for my art studio and gaming.
Despite my negative experience with the service tech when my Arera 51M burned (don't close the lid on the Rev1 A51M's) and the fact that the RTX2080 wouldn't work properly on the refurbished one ( every 2min I had a 1-2 sec lag on every game but otherwise woud push out 400 FPS in some games) and the fact they didn't even respond to my email after telling them that my PSU broke the same day as I received the replacement model. Turned out the 2070 and 2080 didn't have the same PSU or there was an updated version of it, which I got from Amazon.
Anyways all my issues are now resolved with Win11 not sure why, maybe I was on BIOS instead of UEFI or maybe I had to rollback the gpu driver but it's working flawlessly now and yes even the 1st REV A51M are still leaders on the market in regards to performance, there isn't anything that can compare or come even close to it, specially not MAC no comparrion and I do work with MAC alot.
I've been using the same laptop for almost 3 years now. My performance is greatly suffering now.
I never cleaned mine and my gaming fps dropped to 20fps after it was fully cleaned inside back tp 100fps.
@@adrianzilic5753 It helped, but not as much as buying a cooling pad. Probably the best purchase ever. It allows me to play games how my laptop was meant to play them
I agree to the battery life on most gaming laptops sucks, even when doing casual tasks as the GPU still stay on, consuming power... just wished there would be a solution to this so we can have more than an hour of life and don't have to carry the power brick everywhere we go
Would have loved if you also gave your thoughts on the R2 version. 2 extra cores on the 10th gen I9, 4K screen, better cooling, and super versions of the GPU with an even bigger power supply for the GTX 2080. I guess it doesn't matter for your use case.
the only letdown is the keyboard
I can imagine that itll perform better. My area 51m thermal throttles on load and the GPU never gets above 74 degrees. It's set that way in the BIOS. If they can fix the CPU thermal throttling and get those GPU temps up a bit you can probably get 15% more out of the GPU with the super and even more from the CPU.
Your use case lmao..what are you running that you need more than this rig..nothing.
@@neosrt10 RDR2 haha
Lemme get that laptop fam 🤩
There's UHD option btw
Do you use an Ethernet connection when you game on it?
Thanks for this great update ... I bought same computer 13 months ago fully loaded thinking I could update when there was new CPU and GPU but I can not and see now you must buy new model Area 51 that just came out as the new Intel cpu chip and Nvidia video card can not be put in my Area 51M I bought when it came out a year ago 😡
You aren't the only one. Many area 51m owners are upset
So I will call and see if there is anything they will possibly offer us ? What do you think ? Thanks for your reply ⬆️
You’ve been conned by dell .lol Glad I sold mine lol.
Want a review of r2 version 😋
How are you liking the inability to upgrade your CPU or GPU?
And the RAM
Alan L you can still buy ram...
I think we should start a Kickstarter to get an r2 and see if we can swap all of its components into an r1.
Do you think R2 is worth the price?
I was going to buy this, but I decided not to when I learned it had two, TWO massive power supplies. I ended up ordering the Alienware m17 R3 instead. Specs where better in some ways also.
How do you like your M17. Trying to decide between M51 and m17.
Repasted it? Did you get back your performance?
I have a friend that has the laptop and has been facing so many issues in terms of thermals, we have tried undervolting but temps are so hot (almost always 90+ at fun fan speed) so the GPU throttles and sticks to 300 mhz. What do you suggest he does, should he ask for a new unit or should he just repaste it (he is still under warranty)?
It’s a bios limitation for the r1 I would recommend be flash the previous 1.5.0 bios and enjoy his machine without that throttling. If not he’s gonna have to undervolt the gpu and limit cpu clock speeds.
@Wali what are the specs of the laptop having issues?
@@talkandplay rtx 3080 and desktop lvl i9 (forgot exactly which variant) but the temps at beginning were fine then all of a sudden it just stopped cooling properly and the laptop is on a laptop stand to ensure a good supply of fresh air
My lights usually stop working when i update the Alienware command center, just uninstall it and reinstall an old version, never update it again. That usually fixes the issue for me.
Same except the command center wouldnt download again so i couldnt pin the fans at 100% for gaming and my laptop overheated and unfortunately i had to completely reset my laptop to its out of the factory state
@@Doki_Dokers Not to sound like an ass but you basically couldn't figure a way to successfully download/install the command center, right ? It took me a couple tries and a bit of frustration before making it work.

Ryan the new model's name is "Area 51m r2". It has more upgrade options, but very similar in appearance of the first one. Just go on dell's website to check the available specs, and yes it cost more than this model lol.

I would expect most laptops to make it a full year without a primary hardware failure, but I just wanted to share my experience.
can you do a delid and use conductonuat on the whole system to see the temp drop?
Someone did it already and temps were 5-10 Celsius lower. He also swapped out the thermal pads which also lowered the temps.
My only issue so far is that it doesn’t have Windows Hello

Hi. I have the same RB 17 Pro 4K 120hz.
Are you also having issues updating NVIDIA drivers past 4/15?
Also have you tried getting 3200Mhz through XMP?
Thanks!
same here bro, I've talked to razer, they told me we are looking at an update in early July
honestly i like this laptop and im willing to sacrifice portability points for performance since i don't move around much anyways,however i might have to wait till 2021 for next gen rtx 3080,i9 11900k(or amd for that matter XD),and of course a better display like 240hz qhd,then i could maybe buy it...as for the current new display they support which is 300hz fhd,colours don't seem really accurate and 300hz is overkill even for next gen and i've had enough with the stupid fhd,so the sweet spot is 240 qhd,apparantly samsung has their own va 240hz qhd display and the only thing that keeps away from near perfection is the 1000r curve,if alienware uses that display in 17.3 inch form factor while eliminating the curve,then i'll finally have a reason to put that much money on that laptop

Just picked one up from best buy for 1600 it was on sale cause it was open box . I was looking for a desktop but portable too hopefully everything runs good
I like the new versions because they put a better cooler. but they dont have a RTX 2060 version that sucks.
so. did they make a 30 series card for it or are they going to?
New closest laptop is the Alienware M18

If I had the money would totally buy a 51m
Meanwhile, for me, since 2 weeks in, white is completely a tan color now. :( (m15 r2)
Planning to buy the R2 model. It'll cost $6500 maxed out 😬😬
Can you edit videos on it?
Seems like a awesome gaming machine.
I own one and I love it just make sure if you buy one to not run the fans at full speed constantly like my dumb ass did.
Wallpaper source?
