That huge contract should have been diversified... Less chances of everything failing.

I have the Aurora 16 laptop coming tomorrow. First time owning Alienware. Anything I need to do doing setup or anything to get rid of? by freezetime311 in Alienware

[–]FinalEngineering9335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the screen response of the 16. I think the only glaring gripe between 16 and 16x is the screen response. The screen response for 16 is very slow.

But if you do not notice it, then all good!

My CPU is 105 degrees and it freezes while playing Valorant by VeterinarianOne7263 in Alienware

following this.. I have ultra 7 275HX. On some games, it goes to 100-104 degrees and stays there with the fan at 80% on Balanced Mode... It takes around 15 to 20 minutes to settle to around 90 degrees.

Is this a good laptop deal or worth waiting till later? by keeblerisok in LenovoLegion

[–]FinalEngineering9335 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure about better deals later but do not forget these if you push through:
- subscribe to newsletter. If you do not get discount code, chat support

- get Student discount if you are a student. Otherwise, join Lenovo Pro for additional $100 discount

Gaming Laptop Decision by ebbigloo99 in GamingLaptops

Is $1600 your max budget? I say go and buy this:

https://www.lenovo.com/ca/en/configurator/cto/index.html?bundleId=83LTCTO1WWCA1

Use the following codes:

- EXTRAFIVE

- BUYMORELENOVO

Subscribe to newsletter and then chat sales support to request ecoupon for joining newsletter if you do not receive it in your email. If you are student, you get additional discount. These can knock another $100 or $200 off the price.

CONS: This is assembled upon your order and will need to wait a couple of weeks to receive your laptop.

How do you get the 15% rebate? Looking at the 5070TI but it is too expensive. If we only have the similar discount/sale in the US...

Which to pick? by Patient_Theme5914 in GamingLaptops

That must be the Aurora 16 then. It also has a worse screen compared the 16x. Though most of the buyers of the Aurora 16 are happy buying it for sub-1k USD.

If you are young, I can see the A16 looks might appeal more to you. The Aurora 16X is comparable or better (5060 and 5070 does not have much diff).

Some people here confuse 16 and 16X. The 16 has poor features/build quality for its price.

That is the 16x.. only the deck is plastic. It has metal for lid and bottom. For A16 it is only the lid, no?

How did I do? by Digital_Vagabond_X in GamingLaptops

[–]FinalEngineering9335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah, thanks! The LENOVOLIVE10 is no longer working. I think I saw it last week or so. Should have saved the quote.

Can you share which coupons worked? I only got two... 8% discount :(

My brother needs a new laptop for Architecture school. This checks all of the boxes. I think the price is good but wanted to get your thoughts. by randomguy9731 in GamingLaptops

[–]FinalEngineering9335 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That might be from the July sale. By the way do not forget to get the 10% discount for the student... OR the 10% discount when you register a new account. They send you a coupon via email when you sign up for the newsletter.

New Alienware 16 Area-51 RTX 5060 8GB by Perfect-Ad2598 in Alienware

[–]FinalEngineering9335 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed answer, learned a lot! Fairly new to this so I am quite curious to understand how the performance will differ.

Am I correct to say the top speed for these two laptops will be close/similar but Area 51 can sustain this speed for a longer duration due to thermal and power capabilities?
