16X Aurora

Congrats! I got the aurora 16x a couple of weeks ago and bought the Alienware 16inch Backpack - AW5625P and A620m mouse. They're great, the backpack is really nice and fits my laptop, mouse, keyboard and more easily, has a lot of space and it's comfy and well padded, time will tell how it holds up b

To be honest, yes, the Alienware 16x Aurora does get hot. When I first opened it and started doing basic tasks, it was running at around 80 degrees Celsius while practically doing nothing, and while playing AAA games it reached 100-105 degrees (with Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and The Last of Us Part II).

If you run windows the 16x is actually pretty fantastic. I had to for a little bit and if you leave it to do its thing and dont mess with Alienware Controls or anything with just a plain windows install it just works well. Overall a great laptop Ive really loved owning from the perspective of build

I got the same 16x Aurora a few weeks ago and made a post about my temps mainly at idle and browings as i was surprised, and one of the times was when my nephew was playing roblox on it the cpu hit 101, fans blasting, and i though wtf it's a kids game, easy to run, that's when i posted here about it
