  1. Hey I am new here. I have had an Alienware M17x R4 for a while and I keep deciding to upgrade it instead of buying a new laptop. Mostly because it would be prohibitively expensive to buy a new one with comparable performance, expecially the more I upgrade it. I am quite inept when it comes to a lot of the tech stuff on this website, so bear that in mind if I make myself sound like an idiot.

    Currently running;

    OS: Windows 10-64bit Pro

    CPU: Intel Core i7-3840QM CPU @ 2.80GHz, 2801 Mhz 4 Core

    GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M, 8GB VRAM

    -353.17 Modified Driver, in PEG mode with A11 unlocked BIOS

    RAM: 32GB of some Samsung RAM, not sure exactly what kind

    Wireless Adapter: Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7620

    Storage: Two 1TB HDDs in Raid0, and one 64GB SSD (that I believe is mSATA and used to be a cache)

    So what could I upgrade with what I currently have? The main thing I have thought is possibly replacing the 64GB SSD with a Samsung 850 EVO mSATA 1TB SSD. Transfer my OS to the new SSD and just use the 2TB Raid for mass storage. Would that work? What other upgrades could I do?

    Thanks.
