After having used my M14xR1 for almost three years, I think I owe it to myself to disassemble everything, clean it and put it back together using some of these ideas. The fan does come on a bit longer than I think it would need to during simple computer operations.

Is there any noticeable gain by going to 16Gbs of memory? I never rally see my memory get maxed with 8Gbs.

Only been bounding around the treads for a few hours and found this. I didn't realize adding a second drive to the M14x was an option. Very cool and nice guide!- 93 replies

OFFICIAL: Alienware M14x / AW 14 Owners Lounge
xralex replied to Brian's topic in Alienware M14x / AW 14
Hi guys, Just jumping into the conversation. I hae a M14x R1, just installed a Samsung 840 Evo and looking to see where the limits are on this machine if I decide to start overclocking. Of course for me that means reading and learning from other people's mistakes before I take on a project. My M14x has been pretty problem free since I got it and the only reason I waited to install the SSD was that I was pretty happy with the machine but now, I felt the prices were right to jump into a new harddrive and see what all the talk is about. So I'll be around, reading mostly but I'm looking forward to picking up some new knowledge about overclocking my laptop. -
I installed a Samsung 840 Evo in my m14x, I thought it was a good deal for the price and it was a nice jump in performance over the stock 500Gb drive that has been in there since I bought it. I am curious how noticeable the BIOS fix will be so I am playing around for a while at SATA 2 speeds before I try the BIOS fix. Honestly for me, casual gamer, picture editor, SATA 2 is nice but my inner geeks wants to get the most out of any system I use.

HI everyone, Just joined the forums yesterday as I was searching for a fix to the Bios of my M14x. I've had the this guys coming up on three years and have enjoyed it since day one and yesterday I finally installed a Samsung 840 EVO just looking to keep things speedy on this laptop. I've always tweaked any computer I've owned and this looks like a site with lots of useful information for me. I'm not a software developer or connected to the industry in am means, just an enthusiast who likes to mess around with technology to get it to do what I want it to do. I do have a tendency to lurk in forums, until I have a question that I can't use the search function to answer or I can actually give some input on something. Jeff
