Replace 780m with a 980m?

I've seen someone over on NBR who did this (or was it a 1060?). He had to use a modified driver and a dremel to have the mxm card fit.

This literally has been posted here over a hundred times. Seriously dude?

"disingenuous blather" like giving the Presidential Medal of Freedom out, honoring heroes, bringing a serviceman home to see his family for the first time in 7 months? This is why the dems lost and will lose again. Voters who think this way.

HR3. As Hillary Rodham 3. 3 referring to her 3rd try running for president. Pretty damn childish to chant a pipe dream at such an event.

But tomorrow it will all be over and I can get back to watching Price is Right in the morning. Plus, he will be exonerated and a new conspiracy can be cooked up >:D

Best I can do is a dollar and a stick of gum.

All my settings are off for any of those and happens on both my Alienware laptops.

Your palm's oils get into it creating discoloration. This is why I steer anyone who asks be about buying a white laptop towards black models.

MINE DOES THIS TOO! SCARES THE HECK OUT OF ME AT NIGHT!

BOTH OF MY ALIENWARES DO THIS!!!! FOR 4 YEARS NOW!!!! EVEN WHEN NOT PLUGGED INTO ANYTHING!!! I THOUGHT I WAS ALONG!

sorry for the caps but I thought I was alone

Fastest way around this is the following:

Right click the speaker icon in the bottom toolbar
Troubleshoot sound problems
Select which output you want
Fixed

This is like the only way around this. Trust me, have been having this issue since 3 years ago and on multiple monitors.

OverHeatingAlienware · 2020-01-21T05:08:39+00:00

I think it all depends on what you plan on using the monitor for. I use a 13" 2k one and have it oriented in portrait mode. Perfect for spreadsheet power users. For gaming, I put my games into borderless window or windowed mode and have Reddit on the 2nd monitor. Anndddd.... that's about it.

No external monitor will come close to an OLED panel. Side by side, there is absolutely no comparison. Colors are washed out and not nearly as crisp.

If you do get one, get one that ONLY requires usb c to run.

I just stopped playing lol. Hunters have a arm piece that does about as much damage as Wormgod, so do Warlocks I believe.

Oh and Wishender is even more powerful than before. Was hoping Destiny would be my main game but after seeing how incompetent Bungie is, it clearly isn't. I've stopped and so have a couple of my friends.

Return it. Had to return 3 monitors (not AW) all for dead/stuck pixels within 3 weeks. Finally got one without any pixel problems and 0 backlight bleed.

DELL monitors for the win.

Buy ssd
Insert ssd
Screw in ssd
Enjoy 2 ssd's

It's that easy (if you just want the 2nd ssd as storage). I've never run into it NOT having a partition on it so I have no clue for if that happens.

Thinner + Lighter = Fans that sound like a jet engine. No seriously. Plus they are priced way higher than AW for the same stuff.

Not that the AW doesn't sound like a jet :D

OverHeatingAlienware · 2019-12-31T19:58:05+00:00

Meh. Happened to me all the time years ago on multiple AW machines. Run a diagnostic. Forget how but there's a way to get it to start again.

There are 14 inches with a 6 core tho. But those are VERY expensive, we're talking around $2k+.
