Hey, is it possible to start a project in cs6 (on an external drive) then move it into cc then back to cs6 and so on. My school has cs6 but I have cc and I need to move back and forth as I am on s time limit. If it makes a difference I use 8.1 and the cs6 computer uses yosemite

I could build my own tower, but I would still need something for school. Figured the 13 would suit me more than not so portable 14

I can get the alienware 13 and a tower or a nice alienware 15, what do you suggest?

Hello all. I currently have an Alienware 14 (2013) with an i7 4710MQ gtx 765m and 16gb ram. Everything is stock except for the screen which I opted for the 1080p variant. I am selling it, a guy is buying for $1500. Now, with that I was thinking about getting the baseline Alienware 13 for school...

Turns out I had to do a restart not a cold boot because windows 8.1 apparently doesn't re read the registry with fast boot enabled.

I have 70% of my ram being used (16gb) and i have tried restarting and it isn't going back down to the usual 10-20% no process is using that much memory.(or combined processes) 8.3gb are in the non-paged pool. Windows update says there are no available updates(yes i checked) how do i fix this...

should i wait tho

Hi, I'm buying an Alienware 14(don't tell me I'm wasting my money), should I wait for the broadwell cpu's or, at least, the 800m series for it or should i settle for the 4x10MQ CPU and the GTX 750,765M?

Hey, I am buying a used Alienware 14, it comes with Windows 7. The guy is going to wipe it so all that is left is the stock Alienware software like command center and respawn and all that. My question is I like Windows 8.1 more so how will I upgrade to it without losing the Alienware software...

My current rig is a windows 8.1 AMD A10 5745M and an 8610G GPU with 16gb RAM @1333, I will be upgrading to a windows 7 4800mq 8gb of ram@1600 with a gt 750m with 2gb gddr5 on a 1366x768 screen. I know the 765m is better but i heard because of the 720p screen i will be using it will be awesome as...

yes new laptop with the gt 750m

On average, how will I do on games? My current rig is an AMD A10 5745M and an 8610G GPU with 16gb RAM @1333, I will be upgrading to a 4800mq 8gb of ram@1600 with a gt 750m with wgb gddr5 on a 1366x768 screen. People have been telling me that the difference will be monumental. Can someone give me...

Hey guys, I am upgrading my computer. My current set up is an AMD A10 5745M quad with an 8610g gpu. The upgrade is to a 4200m i5 with a gt 750m. I know the gpu upgrade blows my old one out of the wataer, but is it worth losing the 2 cpu cores in the a10 to get the dual core i5?

Hey all! My cousin recently gave me a free Alienware Area 51 7500. It has stock everything if I am correct, with a Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, but it doesn't have a graphics card installed. The motherboard is SLI enabled so my question is should i get one good Geforce card or two older ones...

Think about it this way, Hyper-Threading allows for two threads for each core. So if you had two cores, four threads would be present utilizing resources the cores are giving to them. Since the device manager reads the thread count instead of the core count it would like like four cores would be...
