Alienware M18X
Sup guys. I am targeting the Alienware M18X to buy it when it will be out, but I heard Alienware have problems with overheating and the PSU. Is there anyone that can confirm this? This machine will cost at least $2,000 so I want to make sure it's money well spent. Please let me know if you have any info my concerns. Thanks!

Triv thanks for the advice. I don't understand what you mean with "memory effect" though. Can you please tell me? Cause I know that it's better you get the laptop battery removed, if you want to plug it in and use an outlet.
example: usualy this battery will last 6 h (i just pick random numbers as its an example ) when using psu while battery is installed after some time the battery will just last 5 h then 4 h and sooner or later ur laptop just will work with psu
Hi there and thank you for your answer. I am considering moving to SKorea and I don't like to carry a 32 inch screen with me nor a huge chassis. hihi. Also, I would love to get a laptop as it will look sleeker of course and will also not make as much noise a PC. The power that a $2,000 PC would need per hour, will clog me up with a very big electricity bill at the end of the month, considering it will run at least 12 hours a day. The Alienware M18X hasn't stepped on the market yet, but I was impressed with its performance. Considering its price, performance and other factors, I may or may not decide on this brand. Thank you again for your answers and to anyone that has taken the time to read my topic. I still await for your suggestions if any. Thanks!
