It's not often that a notebook gains weight and girth in successive generations. In this case, the new Alienware 17 R4 utilizes the extra space wisely for an overall stronger experience that more than makes up for the added mass.

Wide display options (FHD, QHD, UHD, 120 Hz, G-Sync, IPS, TN), 2x USB Type-C, Thunderbolt 3, Graphics Amplifier support, no CPU or GPU throttling; extreme performance, very high quality chassis; strong base and lid, very fast display response times, intuitive AlienFX software, bright display...

very warm CPU and GPU temperatures when gaming, fans are always active and very loud when gaming, slight creaking when opening and closing the lid, fewer internal storage bays compared to 17 R3, fingerprints and grease accumulate quickly, no individually-lit keys; only 20 color keys, few USB Type-A...
Overall, the Alienware 17 R4 pulls out all the stops, and is one gaming notebook that we’re glad to send off with a full recommendation. Well done.

Fans are loud while gaming, CPU runs hot under extended load, No SD card reader
The Alienware 17 R4 offers a great combination of strong performance, comfortable typing, innovative eye tracking and an attractive design. With its lower-end components, you may also get all-day battery life and, with the optional graphics amp, you can get even stronger performance.
Yet again, I’m still pretty impressed with what Dell has to offer with the Alienware 17. They managed to keep all their strengths from the previous model and even improve in a couple areas. Sure, it’s bigger, but the performance capabilities make up for it in my opinion.
To start off ,I picked up a open box so there was a small discount.
I purchased this Laptop (my first Alienware) and since it's only fault is that it doesn't come with a CD/DVD, I picked up an external DVDRW for next to nothing. I also got a great deal on some headphones w/mic and an extra 1 TB hard drive (just for archiving purposes).
