Is it possible to get an Aurora without the F-series processor? The Ryzen processors don't have a iGPU either. I've had a graphics card fail when I needed to get something done and I like having the iGPU as a backup. And I use QuickSync. I know I can get an XPS without the F-series processor, but I

I'm considering MSI's Z790 offerings for an Area-51 R5 2023 upgrade (originally an i7 7800x/1080Ti updated to i7 9800x, RTX 3080) to comfortably run MSFS 2020 in VR. Not sure of the case LED Compatibiity issues with these new MSI boards but interested in having the same lighting theme features

My Aurora R10 came with 8GB Fury DDR4 UDIMM 3200MHz XMB ram. I bought an additional 16GB stick of R-create DDR4 3200MHz UDIMM XMB. Now I check and only get 2667MHz, and there is no option in AWCC (Alien Command Center) and in bios. Its only giving me things like voltage and stuff to change. I don't

Hi,I put the RTX 3070, the Ryzen 7 5800x and the SSD of the Alienware Aurora R10 PC in a new PC.It has an ethermax power supply, asus rog strix x570 f gaming MB and a Artic Liquid freezer 420 in a Be quiet case. After some time, the fans of the GPU stopped spinning. At least HW Monitor told me they

I see several posts about moving internals to custom/aftermarket cases. Has anyone attempted moving older Aurora to new Aurora cases. I know it’s a funny concept as everyone wants to run away from the flaws in case design.  I just recently picked up an Aurora R7 and see several of the newer cases gu

Is it possible to access the service menu on the AW3423DWF? If so, how do I do that? Is the service manual also available for download?

So with the latest update on the bios, what is the latest CPU that it can accept? Can I put a i9-10900 on it? I currently have a i7-9800x that came with it and a RTX 3080 12GB. I want to upgrade my CPU because its falling in some games and other stuff.

Just ordered an Alienware Aurora R13 and want to install another HDD to run macOS on it. What cable do I need to complete the addition? Should I run a SSD or a regular HDD. Tia.

I'm wanting to use an ethernet connection to my router for internet access. The computer, running Windows 11, is recognizing that there is something there, but it cannot connect to the internet. I've tried googling Windows 11 and ethernet connection issues, but I have not found anything that works.

Hi all, So last night I went to bed my pc was working perfect. When I got up today I turned it on to send some email, when windows loaded everything up an error screen popped up for the command center. I have screenshot it and will attach to this message. I cant figure out what the error i

Got an email from the sales team, saying they have a better price for me, they canceled my original order and will make an order for me, when they start to reorder it, the price changed, even higher than the original price that I placed by myself, talked to the sale's coach, saying will raise a requ

Hello Alienware team, Many people are wondering what is the ETA on the firmware fix that's coming for the AW3423DWF? According to this article on dell website, a firmware update was suppose to be provided in mid February for the source tone map bug in HDR 1000. Alas, we're now March 1st and there's

I have an older Alienware Area 51 R2 that I think has a failing cpu heat pump. From a cold boot directly into the BIOS the BIOS reports my CPU temp at 90+ degrees Celsius after only a minute or two.  Diagnostics showed the pump was "running" and every hardware check showed to have passed....bu

Hey guys I want to replace the OEM NVMe drive that came with my Aurora R13 for a bigger storage one. Can you guys guide me on how to clone the drive? Also would there be any problems/errors doing this? Thank you much

Newbie/old man here. I have an Aurora R9 with a 1TB HDD purchased as such. I want to install an SSD. I will clone the new drive to the old one. I’d like to remove the HDD when all is done. I can’t find step by step instructions but it appears from literature that there are bays I can put the SSD int

Hi there Alienware community, I have read a lot of articles here I love how people help each other.So I need help. Last month I bought Alienware Aurora R10 used.

Hi guys, Once more I'm back, looking at upgrading from 8GB to 16GB DDR4. Turns out its cheaper to buy a new set at 16GB 2x8GB Patriot compared to buying an extremely overpriced stick of Samsung 8GB to match the 8GB already in my Aurora R7. Now I'm hearing there could be compatibility issues with

Hello, I recently found area-51 r2, a third-party brand motherboard. After seeing the post that the replacement was successful, I decided to try it. In conclusion, it is only half successful. I replaced msi's b550 mag motherboard and amd's 5800x3d CPU,and the parts were recognized andoperated There
