nah, i didn't purchase it from dell directly, but through a reseller... i talked to dell, it will (would) cost me nearly 600$ to have the display exchanged...i suddenly don't find these minor scratches too disturbing anymore -

so i ran some prime95 yesterday and it all passed running @800MHz. did some gaming and had no problems, except sometimes f.e.a.r.2 (i know...old) had a lag of a split second and then after a a while again. darkness 2 no problem either, only this split second lag one in a while. today the 2 sets of hyperx 1600 arrived and i took pics of the still unopened boxes. the numbers are silly again ^^ edit: i set the memory clock of the gpu to 1150. laging solved -

thx buddy, i installed the new drivers and made sure to have all of what you posted me before installed. will check now i don't have crossfire as i got the r3, i will see how it's behaving now. i also noticed that i had the 6990 oc'd to 805 / 1200. i went to 795 / 1195 now. might have also been a factor something else: i probably got a grain of sand between the keyboard and the screen of my m11 and have two scratches on the plastic cover of the display now. there is nothing to "fill up" the scratches to make them less visible, is there? it's not that it's less functional now, but i am a lil bitch when it comes to scratches hahaha what would you do? ^^ -

its running since 2:38 without probs, i'm just not sure about how the cores are used in this version.. i'm putting in the other 8gb now, then after 3 hours if everything is ok i put in both sets. --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?5wf3mp -

so i have memtest (the previous 3.something) running with 8gb @800mhz. it seems to me that it just uses 1 core, is that possible? it says: acting cpus: 1 , using cpu: 0. i changed the cpu selection to sequencial, but not knowing what it does -.- --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?tpma0u -

after around an hour running at default ram speed, same shit! so i guess ... well actually i don't have any clue what i guess! i will see what happens if i boot to the previous version of memtest and let this version run for a while. --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?hadbdd -

deadbydawn replied to StamatisX's topic in Alienware M17x / AW 17
i set them to default, first test passed already....will let it run for a few hours, then put in the other 8gb to test all 16gb... if that works for a few hours i have no clue if i should cancel the ram order. then i will probably just have to stick with the knowledge of running at 699mhz, as i can't explain whats going on at all =( damn what a night --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?xha1zq -

thx for all the pics! strange stuff, the numbers i got are 123, 724, 212, 921. but they came as pair of twos (of course not remembering anymore which ones..). i put in the other 8gigs now. the first two did 5 rows of tests, over 3 and a half hours without errors. i somehow think that i won't be different with the other 8gigs =/ --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?zyyebp -
