Most alienware laptops are very overpriced (from a hardware point of view) you can get similar power for much less.

For a hardware point of view, yes. For a laptop point of view with a over average performance, I would say no. Mainly because most laptops with anything close to this would cost much more. Most laptops are overpriced, so it doesn't make this look too expensive.

If you buy one from the dell outlet store, you may be able to find a really nice discount.

They also have coupons once in a while, who you could get a refurbished laptop with 30% off coupon, which can be a really good deal.

But that's when they have promotional offers. You'll have to wait for some holiday or something to happen to get a deal like that.

It shouldn't be a problem if it's a small vibration. If it sounds a little chunky, as if it's being touching something else, then you may need to clean it, reposition it, or replace it. That would fix the issue.

It seems as though some m14's overheat and some don't. I think it has something to do with the paint job and overall job on the laptop.

My first laptop would overheat. I sent it back, got a new one, which did not overheat, even when overclocking the drivers and some tweaks on the bios.

I'd say BIOS overclocking works. There's also a performance app for nvidia to overclock their drivers.

How has this been working for all of you lately?

There's been a new nvidia update, and was just wondering what type of interference it has to the bios and overall system.
