Normally we get really lucky with older Alienware systems that end up having a good amount of life left in them. Today we look at a DUAL graphics card Alienware desktop… Should this one have just been a relic of the past?

Crysis 👍
speaking of that can anyone tell me why my rx580 wont work with adrenaline software? i use the win 10 driver and still have to use an amd/ati patch fix to make it work i checked bios in card using gpu-z all checks out
1920×1200 in 2010 was the 8k of today
Fun fact Gibraltar (the name on the box the laptop shipped in) is a music store near where I live, They've been around since the 1980's and mainly sells drums and drum accessories but they also sells microphones and Dj stands.
Can you guys make a diy gaming tablet with a orange pi 5
asus g71 something had an i7-4th, 970m (?), had the cooling intake thru the keyboard, betcha that still runs today's stuff
Battery only only last 1 to 1.5hrs at best drivers still available usually get them from dell. I’ve had it since it came out still have mine. Mxm upgrading is possible but very challenging because of the screen you have.
will you buy mine? trying to get my son a vr laptop
Great retro video guys! I remember considering selling a kidney for one of these back in 2009/2010 before good sense prevailed. Keep Toasty, Bros! ( Sorry about that, I'm from England )
I'd want it for the dvd player 🙂
My sister ex husband had this in all black back in the day when I was a kid he let me use this thing with a steam library full of games to try was incredible machine for 2010
i cant believe i can carry this around decade ago
How can i pass ???
You should look for the games,from the same year,as this aging beast.
Do a x51 r3 upgrade
that needs older windows and drivers … or try linux
I think most people should just get an Aspire 5. It's only $100 more, comes with Windows 10, and although isn't the most performant, it's much better than this.
Got to love all the ports!
My dream 😔
What’s the song that’s playing in the beginning
CUSTOM DRIVERS!
Could you do one on the bmax b3 pro mini pc
In 2011 I ordered a 17” R17M2. A 960Q @ 1.73GHz, dual 5870’s, two 500GB HDD’s, 16GB RAM. It was $3200. It was so heavy. But it could play. Expensive, but probably the lowest per-hour cost entertainment I’ve ever purchased. And I used it until 2019.
pllsss keep doing these retro laptop reviews
You guys should do like public videos or something. Like something different cause at this point you've been doing the same thing for years I doubt your excited about making these videos. At this point I just click to leave a dislike
Congrats on 500K SUBS!!!
I want a cheap alienware pc for minecraft. Would it have any lag issues or heating issues? It looked pretty good for counterstrike to me except when it froze
I had a new battery and I guess it would die really quick and it needed a couple weeks of charging and draining till it started holding a charge for a proper amount of time
Congrats on 500k subs
i will buy this off the PCbros site as this will be my first gaming laptop,
I have a later M17x R4 which actually has an HDMI input so you can connect a game console to play on the internal screen. It's also got dual 256gb SSDS in RAID 0 from the factory and 16gb of ram. Iirc the battery life was actually not bad when it was new and yes the original power adapter did have the little power light on it.
Mine was fairly loaded and worked extremely well for years. Still does actually though its in my closet. I've mulled selling it though
Was actually a good laptop. Even technically has upgradeable graphics (I believe you can get and put a 980M in it) as they're on a card, it takes a bit of work but is doable
How technologies change fast 😏
Try Gtav
👆👆👆👆👆👆
500,000!!! You Guys deserve every bit of it! Keep up the great work! 😀
Could you guys review the Skytech siege 4 gaming pc??
Gibraltar box… That Ebay user is also a drummer.
Looks better than the new ones.
Congratulations on 500k!!
I’m not a bot btw
i remember seeing this exact model in Hong Kong while having vacation. Bought a 17 R3 (i7 6700HQ + 980m 4gb) 2016 to scratch the itch. That 6700HQ undervolted really well. Sadly, had to sell it for some reasons.
500k!!!
$300 seems a little expensive even for a highend 2010 laptop when even lowend laptops with integrated graphics will outperform it.
I would of done better on that old Alienware, 870 1tb SSD, wifi 6e pcie card, custom rtx M card yes it's possible it's been done many times, and I would of installed windows 11
Still better than my pc..
put windows 7 on it please
Try checking the thermal paste that's probably why Crysis goes from 100-20fps and freezes
I swore never to purchase another Alienware product. I purchased a R15 gaming laptop and the hard drive was gone within months. I then replaced it with an SSD. Then right at the year anniversary the screen went black. I contacted Alienware and they immediately let me know the warranty was over, but they would be glad to check it for $30 not counting shipping. After I let them know how crappy their service was, I took it to a local tech, who checked it for free. He told me the motherboard was gone, and he highly advised me not to replace it, and to stay away from Alienware. Now the damn thing just sits in a corner of my room because I don't want to throw it away. I paid a lot of money for this trash.
