The AW3225QF is not reporting the proper EDID information to Windows. By default, the monitor is not reporting VRR ranges, or any HDR or CTA-861 blocks at all. This results in (at least) behavious such as severe VRR flickering. Please correct the EDID/Handshake with the monitor. This occurs ov

When using AW3225QF with any recent nvidia drivers (any card) the monitor uses Dolby vision at all times regardless of the selected mode and no way to disable. Results in extremely washed out desktop black levels and mode switching. happens with both HDMI and DP and different refresh rates.

I have an Aurora r7 i7-8700 non k variant with an upgraded PSU and upgraded 3070. My question is, I noticed the gpu runs at x8 instead of x16.

When I turn on the R7, I get the Alienware head and I see the options in the corner for F2 or F12. Pressing F2 does not bring me to the BIOS screen. F12 does not bring me to any sort of boot options. Sometimes it goes into a white SupportAssist screen, scans memory and reports, "Hardware sca

Silly question, but still: looks like the second SSD slot on the R16 board comes without a screw... The manual says M2x3, but I bought one and it looks tiny and bound to fall inside the chassis if I try to install it... can anyone confirm what type of screw is needed?

Yesterday I set up my new alienware desktop and it works fine. The fan is a little loud 45 decibels. But what is really agitating is that every 30 minutes to an hour it will "power on" for about 10-15 seconds and then turn off. No lights turn on but I can hear internal components powering on and occ

Is this ok to do from Windows Update? I did search it up on this site and there is a 1.8.0 available (Windows Update says 1.7.0) I just want to know if it's ok to do it from Windows Update. 1.6.0 got installed without issues, but it auto installed from Dell, I didn't use Windows Update there.
