The Alienware AW17R4-7352SLV-PUS is a best selling high-end gaming laptop that has received positive reviews for its super powerful GTX 1080 graphics, great selection of ports, huge amount of RAM and for its powerful seventh generation Intel i7 processor. But its price is rather steep for most gamers and is more suited for hardcore gamers and professionals. Some users and reviewers have mentioned an issue with heat buildup while gaming. Despite this small issue, if you are a serious gamer and you need a laptop while on the go, then the Alienware AW17R4-7352SLV-PUS is well worth considering. Note: The model listed only comes with 8GB of RAM standard. Save over $200 by buying additional RAM separately and in installing it yourself. We recommend a minimum of 16GB of RAM.
