The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    $1,988.00 USD for the same system I built in AW Canada before tax and shipping., except that this one has 1920 resol which worth 200 CAD.

    I pay about the same price , but in Canadian dollars. So it's about the same for low end builds.

    Don't create a thread like this in the Alienware forum, or for that matter any thread like this advertising a competitor in another manufacturer's forum. It's off-topic and out of context since it is not what people are looking for when they go into a manufacturer forum. This thread is closed.
