The drivers weren't supported by windows in 2015 (2 years after the laptop was purchased) so Crossfire was disabled and it only ran on one of the cards.

In all honesty, this is the exact reason why I had to purchase a new laptop - One of Lenovo's Legion line (I think I mentioned somewhere earlier in this thread).

Yes, along with yourself, @Oni explained It very well.

I've never owned one, nor had the time to research as of late but both your feedback changes my view on Alienware, entirely.

thats pretty early for 32Gig! like its 2021 now, 8 years later, and 32Gig is still a luxury 

It is! My only complaint was that the Alienware went bad after a while. Awesome while still new, but the gfx cards were no longer supported literally two years after it was released, which sucked. It had two AMD cards that meant I couldn't play most of my games, which means that RAM went to waste and the singular working card overheated like a mofo xD
Still, it was 7 years old and I was still using it!

They're certainly very appealing, but compared to other laptops of similar specs, they're overpriced.

I don't mind paying extra If they performed as expected, however yourself and Oni have confirmed otherwise, so I'll stick to my Acer Predators.

Lol! It was actually Oni's old laptop. He's had tons of them over the years.

You know, I was very, very tempted to get an Acer after your reviews, but they didn't have what I wanted in stock. I'd had some good experiences with Lenovo and like their support so ultimately chose that.

dont say anything, but its actually pure condensation.
if someone says they have a computer for fucking $2.000, you dont say that it sucks.
I know youre going to say "but this is a debate forum, we are allowed to have negative opinions".
but like, if someone has something worth of this much, there almost must be some form of humiliation involed
to condescend and disrespect that person. there is just such an obvious form of disrespect here,
that Im going to be sad, be grumpy, and view this as a sign that im not respected.
you think I suck. you dont like me. you dont value me. so Im just going to keep this in mind, that im a low value individual,
feel the frustrations, and just exist. everything I touch turns to rot. honestly, I will spare you the "forbidden words".
but I dislike oni. whenever I see him im thinking hehehe [---censored----] so much. i am returning the favour
of feelings of hatred and spite.
I came here without hope. I came because I dream of ruining peoples lives. destroying their youtube channels.
taking their money. seeing my former enemies being kicked out into the streets.
getting people to break up. I came here because of my hatred, and desperate want to destroy peoples lives.

i hate you all!!!!!!!! DDDDDDDDD: <
