Alienware M14x R2 Ram speed

Would it not possible to change the BIOS to allow faster than 1600 mhz ram installation? If so, how would I go all this on my laptop of special running Windows x 64 Pro 10? Thanks to everyone for their help!

Hello

The highest speed of ram that can support the Alienware M14X R2 is 1600 MHz. We do not recommend set the Bios to operate with greater speed of the ram, which would likely cause the system to crash.

  • VGA graphics card cannot start (Code 10) on Alienware M14x

    Recently, I deleted from my hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7 and now all my games (COD Black Ops, FSX, etc.) and other programs such as Google Earth are Mid-use freezing and I have to force to leave them via the Task Manager. There is a sign of warning next to the VGA adapter in the currency manager and I can not find suitable driver to install it with. This driver to I use to install the VGA graphic card? I tried everything from my M14x Resource CD to Microsoft and Dell downloads.

    System Specs:

    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Intel Core i5 - 2.40 GHz
    Intel HD Graphics 3000

    Any suggestions?

    You are probably running on the integrated graphics card Intel HD3000.

    Generally drivers for laptop are all downloaded from the web site of the mfg, but sometimes drivers for graphics dedicated on laptops are downloaded from the mfg cards.

    I see that the four existing variants of the M14X using Nvidia GT650m, so if DELL does not include drivers for this card then use the Nvidia download below-
    Note that your M14X may use a different graphics card, so check that you have.

    NVIDIA Driver Downloads - advanced search

    No matter what the pilots are on the CD, you should check for newer versions
    on the DELL site, as the drivers on the CD are almost always up-to-date.

    If you have not done yet also get updates of Windows, but don't forget to
    block the updates of Windows to download and install the drivers.

  • No boot on Alienware M14x device

    Hi, I got an alienware m14x I been sitting for about a year now because I could not understand how to solve this problem, and I think it's time that I solve this problem, haha.  My computer came with a drive hard seagate momentus xt 750 GB, and it ended up being damaged, so I bought a new HDD, the same that I had before (seagate momentus xt, 750 GB).  When I started the computer upward with the new hard drive in it, it says no bootable device, insert the installation disc, blah blah blah, so I inserted the Alienware windows 7 64-bit installation disk. When I did that, I got to the window of windows install, where it says "select the driver to install", and there is no options to select. When I went through the possible drivers, I clicked on "Boot (x :)), then clicked on the host usb controller 3 renesas electronics (did not work) so the Renesas Electronics 3 USB hub (did not either).»  Honestly, im lost on what to do. Any advice?

    Try to jump the driver option and continue with the installation.

    Hello. He machine Alienware m14x R2 i7-3630QM GTX 650 M. Faced with this problem:
    When you connect an external monitor via HDMI, there is no image, while sound is transmitted and the monitor is determined by the system pulls the native resolution in the display properties, but there is no picture. I've tried different monitors, different painkillers to reinstall the driver. I asked as the site of the factory in DELL in accordance with service number and all the news on the Nvidia site. Just do rekaveri. I change the monitor and in the display properties settings. The result is the same. At the same time connected via mini DP image is transmitted normally.

  • Alienware m14x colapses R2 (Control Panel of Sound Blaster, AlienRespawn and IAStorIcon)

    Hello everyone,

    Just a few hours by my Alienware m14x R2 seems colapsing.

    I bought in September 2012 and the system worked very well since... I didn't do any system of Respawn (the application of restoration of the integrated plant) for almost two years and a half!

    A few minutes ago I was using my Alienware as I always do: nothing else, except for updating TeamViewer version 9 to 10 (I honestly don't think that could crash my system like this) and the automatic update of the Dell SupportAssist software (Besides, I don't like this program at all).

    Then, I just turned off my laptop and half an hour after that, I start getting an avalanche of mistakes whenever I start Windows. The screenshot below shows what I always, whenever I start Windows:

    I already tried to return the system to a previous time in the past (using the Windows tool), but it was not successful (and he really SAID that he was not successful).

    What am I supposed to do? Someone knows something similar after the update to the latest version of Dell SupportAssist?

    Thank you in advance.

    Because of all the errors that you have found my best recommendation will be to reinstall windows, but you can try to update the framework to see if you are able to correct the error of the Intel Rapid Storage Technology technology.

    The USB ports on the left side of the laptop are USB3 and does not let you install Windows from a USB device on them.

    Simplest answer is to use the ports on the right side are the USB 2.0 standard. It's really as simple as that!

  • Is RAM speed issue?

    Introduction:

    Hello, I ran some tests today to see if RAM speed really makes a difference when it comes to After Effects. In short, my conclusion is that, no, it makes no difference. At least not for the type of project I tested it with. Here are my conclusions, but first of all, my system specs.

    System Specs:

    Intel Core i7 - 3930K (4.3 GHz OC) cooled water

    120 GB Sata II SSD for the OS and programs

    256 GB Sata III SSD for the files of project and after effects of Disk Cache

    16 GB (4x4Go) Corsair Vengeance RAM (hourly stock are 1600 MHz @ 8,8,8,24)

    1 GB Nvidia GTX 460 SE

    Test project:

    The project involved 6 AVCHD videos played simultaneously and a few very basic effects such as corner pinning and cc removal of thread. The after effects memory and multiprocessing settings were as follows. 5 GB reserved for other programs, 2 CPUs reserve for other programs, 2 GB by heart.

    Results:

    1333 MHz, 12, 12, 12, 24 @ 1.57V

    Render time: 03:22

    1333 MHz, 7, 7, 7-24 @ 1.6V

    Render time: 03:17

    1866 MHz 9, 9, 9, 24, @ 1.57V

    Make the timer 03:14

    1866 MHz, 12, 12, 12, 24 @ 1.57V

    Render time: 03:19

    2133, 12, 12, 12, 24 @ 1.6V

    Render time: 03:15

    Conclusion:

    So, in my tests, I found that RAM stpeed is not really play a big role in this situation. However, after thinking about this a bit, I realized that this is probably due to the fact that my RAM must load data from and data dump to my SSD in this project. Even if my SSD is able more 500 MB/s had R/W, it is still not even remotely near speed, were one of these RAM speeds.

    So my question to you all is then as follows, can you recommend a type of project with effects that will mainly use the RAM without having to access my SSD? While my tests show a good example of 'real world' of the effects of the speed of the RAM, they do not show the full picture. With your recommendations, I'll create a new project that will best contribute to the effects of the speed of the RAM and add these conclusions about it.

    Yes... just a little space to fit... you could literally get 8 + of my tricks inside of your and still have room.

    In any case, I did a few tests more and discovered more interesting things on the search for the best speed of RAM.

    Test project

    Just a rubix cube in rotation with 6 iterations of keylight to key of all colors. The AE memory and multiprocessing settings were as follows: 5 GB reserved for other programs, 2 CPUs for other programs, 2 GB by heart. See original post for the specifications of the system. NOTE: I increased the frequency breaks through a little following GHz 4,427 during this test.


    Results:

    NOTE: Purged of the means I have "purged all" immediately before you click the record button.

    Purged of time 1: 03:45

    Time without purge 1: 03:20

    Time without purge 2: 03:18

    Conclusion:

    These figures all seem to be pretty conclusive that the most important part for After Effects displays must have the total latency as low as possible. So if you're in the market for RAM, get some will give you the lowest total latency, even if it means the passage with the 1600 MHz RAM on the 2400 MHz RAM. The argument according to which the higher latency will consist in transfer rate does not appear to apply here. In fact, it makes sense because a single address in RAM should contain nearly 500 MB for just a difference of 8ns in total latency. (Actual capacity of a single address is probably considerably smaller than that. I sent an email to Corsair to know what the maximum capacity. I'll post here again if they ever come back to me). So in the example above, where cpachris can run either 1600 MHz to 24 777 or to 10,11,10,30 2133 MHz, it would be MUCH better off running at 1600 MHz.

    Other important details:

    Intel says that the speed of RAM they recommend is 1600 MHz (Haswell of 1866 MHz however). I think it's because the hearts intel (at least those I did research) have a clock (bclk) standard base of 100 MHz. everything is based on this bclk. Your CPU frequency is generated by multiplying the bclk by a number. So for 4.4 GHz would multiply you a bclk to 100 MHz by 44. Pretty simple. RAM has now (I think) a multiplier locked which has the value 8. 100 MHz x 8 = 800 MHz, multiplied by 2 for Double data rate (DDR), which means, gives you 1600 MHz. If you try to set your frequency high that WITHOUT changing the bclk then you RAM may very well be running at 1600 MHz, just with worst timings.

    Now, if you were to increase the bclk for 116.625 your RAM frequency would become 116.625 x 8 x 2 = 1866. The tests I ran support this. In the original post, I had my bclk of 100 MHz (RAM max of 1600 MHz frequency). This test showed that, if I went more than 1600 MHz there is no advantage. In the next round of tests, I tested only the values min and max for those who do not give a picture complete. In the last test I boosted my bclk to 116.5 who gave me a RAM of 116.5 x 8 x 2 = 1864 MHz frequency. It is at this frequency that I gave my best results. So, if you use valued at more than 1600 MHz of RAM I encourage you to try to increase your bclk to where it corresponds to the frequency of your RAM and then run tests to see if that makes a difference. I'll go back and try to run the same tests with 1600 MHz to see where that falls to help support or defeat my argument.

    If someone objects to my statements above, please comment and let me know why so we can understand this stuff. All my findings are based only on some readings I've done and what my test results show.

    EDIT:

    I just ran some tests more and got subsequent synchronizations during execution of 1600 MHz at the time 8,8,8,24.

    1st series of tests:

    1600-888-24 (latency total 30ns)

    Duration: 03:14

    2nd series of tests:

    1600-888-24 (latency total 30ns)

    Time:05:34

    The time difference between 1600 and 1866 enforcement was minimal. It was exactly the same time for the first test and the time of 1600 in 4 seconds slower than the calendar of 1866 came. Compare the differences to run the same tests AFTER increase the bclk and this discrepancy increases to 15 + seconds. (by only comparing tests performed to the highest cpu frequency because that plays a very important role in the performance).

  • keyboard replacement for old keyboard for Alienware M14x R1 R2

    Hello

    recently, my old keyboard on my Alienware M14x died and I had to buy a replacement. not knowing about two different types of keyboards (or maybe even three), I bought the keyboard instead of R1 R2. Thus, for keys (a, s, d and e) do not work. It is anyway possible to have the keyboard does work (maybe to install drivers or reprogram a chip)? the alternative is to get the correct keyboard, which will cost money and time. Thanks for any help.

  • Impact of the RAM speeds on site/server

    Hi and welcome to the Finland!

    I am suppose to accuire new material and I don't know what is the most effective way to go.

    I have two options at hand: the R900 and Poweredge R710/R910.

    I just wonder, how much speed RAM (not the amount but the speed) affect a server that will host a website? The site/s is / are quite heavy and at least put a toll on the side of viewers of the performance, but since the R900 supports only 667 Mhz RAM, is really worth to at least double the budget and go for R710/910 supporting 1333 Mhz RAM?

    The speed of RAM affect a server that much?

    Overall the R900 would have a total of four 2, 94Ghz quad-cores and about 100 gigabytes of RAM, 15 k HARD drive of

    The R710/R910 would have about one-third less the CPU performance and about 50 gigs of RAM, you would be 1333 Mhz.

    Think you folks?

    This is an issue involving too variable. In the past, I've seen servers with slower speed ram perform easily out of servers with faster ram, in general, it is the reverse.

    «The R710/R910 would have about one-third less the CPU performance and about 50 gigs of RAM, you 1333 Mhz.»

    CPU speed trumps ram speed usually, especially 33% difference, even taking into account the web servers are mainly intensive reading.

    Not sure how much disk space you need, but if it's a reasonable amount I would look in SSDS for extreme drive speed. If no SSD, and if you have the resources, raid 10 is fast enough.

  • Miscrosoft Word on Mac - it's never works well, with complex documents? If so, optimal CPU, RAM speed, etc. ?

    I've been using Microsoft Word for Mac (2011) for a while (on a Macbook Pro, 2010, OSX 10.11.5) and sometimes encounter problems with this gel, especially when doing a wide track changes on a document. I don't know if this has to do with the limitations inherent in Word (I talked to PC users who have exactly the same problem with Word), my computer is not enough of fantasy to run this software at a reasonable speed (speed of the CPU? RAM?), or that my computer's hard drive is toast (recent diagnosis of a 'genius' of Apple). Or maybe all three.

    Whatever it is, I need a new computer, and one that will be able to manage the work on complex Word documents (sometimes more than one at a time) using full tracking capabilities - the software changes, without crashing or slowing down to the speed of the turtle. My questions:

    1. does MS Word work inherently less well on Mac than on PC, esp. When you make the stuff of fantasy as heavy track changes? (I wouldn't go PC, but as a professional editor, I have to put the right word running as my number one priority)

    2 if there is hope for Word on Mac, what are the optimal system specifications? Microsoft said minimum RAM for Word for Mac 2016 is 4 GB. If that's the minimum, should I get more than that? 6, 8, etc. ? Furthermore, what about the speed and type of processor? (Assuming that the computer is used mainly for daily use of work: simultaneous web browsing, e-mail, editing a Word document or both.) No game, video or streaming music)

    For example, it would be crazy to expect MS Word for Mac to run smoothly on a Macbook Air with these specs:

    Processor: 1.6 GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost up to 2.7 GHz) with 3 MB cache shared N3

    Memory: 4 GB on-board memory 1600 MHz LPDDR3

    Storage: 256 GB of flash PCIe storage

    General impressions nor special knowledge, you can share would be much appreciated!

    I have Office 2016 for Mac on my MacBook Air - but I do not have something complex. However, I would say that you can post the same question on the Microsoft Office for Mac forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2016?auth=1
