Personally i got 2 alienware laptops 17xr2 and a 17xr3 will never buy them again just issues with them as a matter of fact the 17xr3 is dead and the vid card is like 500 bucks still cause the wife was playing on it all of a sudden white screen then nothin but beeps the and i bought it like 3 or so years ago. To me they went down hill since dell bought them out.

Thanks for the reply...but I am expecting an answer about the PSU. The new Alienware actually has a good build quality and the price has come to an understandable level...I ordered my Alienware 15 with gtx980m for 2175$

you should of been able to upgrade that psu...they wouldn't give you a psu that doesn't work well with the LT you can always upgrade it i don't think it would be a problem it would just generate less heat.
