• (Redirected) Dell Alienware Aurora R3 R4 upgrade

  I have a Dell Alienware Aurora R3 and thought of installing a new R4 motherboard, processor, memory and liquid cooling assembly. Should be physically in terms of wiring, the ports and connectors on the back panel? The Master i/o board is different about R3 vs the R4? Look at the options to deal with the lack of compatibility of Windows 10 and the Aurora R3. Thank you

• Power Alienware Aurora R2

  My diet does not work well and I need a new.

  I looked on the Dell website to see if they had a replacement but they didn't have that a 875W, I'm looking for 525W because I had difficulties to install in a different diet, when I bought one last time.

  This will be compatible with R2?

  

  or

  

  I tried to watch my diet to see what it was, but I couldn't find a number. But that's what food come by default in the R2 aurora still. Thanks for the help.

• Change of power supply for the Alienware Aurora r4

  Hello, since my diet is reel whining I would change it

  I was looking for a bit of the PSU and found this one

  http://www.EVGA.com/products/product.aspx?PN=210-GQ-0850-v1

  is it good?, fit into the section of PSU aurora r4? It will connect to the back plastic, that normal power supply is connected to the rear?

  Also I don't know anything about sata cables, but there so much that normal power supply I mean it will be able to connect to what it is now? (only the change requiring more sata is the addition of two extra hdd/ssd (there was a spare sata cables))

  and... I need something more than that? (some wires or something?

  I have not wand to buy the same PSU again because seeing how it survived...

  Hello. I will address this, knowing that other users information. Your old harness case will be removed, the new chassis will have its own cables. The EVGA 850 GQ is ok, but the G2 is better, you can find them on Newegg / eBay / EVGA.com etc.

  • ALX must use 'pass-thru' heads, like the originals, if the power is connected to the wall box

  

  EVGA uses these types of base with non - ALX SATA heads

  

  "standard heads.

  

  above, my Corsair cable has ALX-type amp heads:

  • the plastic is a two-piece, the rear insulation snaps off the coast
  • in an ALX installation, with the cable above, I would jump off the top, cut the wire to length, & apply two heads on it to mimic the original as close as possible

  If I had the EVGA SATA type?, I want to buy x 4 amp heads online:

  • frozen & perfpcs

  

  Note the two types of rear covers: "cap" (for superior insulation) & pass-thru-cap

  I would use these to "build" my own pair of cables to match the original cable pair, best I could. I could just shop any spare cable to amp heads, like here. My ALX has a set of hand-made cable, I already have the SATA cable mod, so they mimic the original case harness. Chassis no - ALX may not be no need for this type of care

• (Redirected) Alienware aurora r4 (end of 2011). My computer is the breaking of my gpu?

  Hi, I had trouble with my r4 Alienware Aurora (end of 2011). The original gpu was a 555 gtx, but I upgraded to an hd 7970 just a few months after I got the computer. This card lasted a year and the theanks to a three-year warranty, I got a new hd 7970 which also lasted about two years before he fell. Still, I got a new card of the company, that I bought, but this time, it was an x 280 r9. This card lasted about an hour before I started having accidents. I decided to send my computer to a company that troubleshoot computers and they concluded that it was the gpu that was broken and they couldn't find any problems with my other components so they think it was a mistake to plant on the r9. However this doesn't seem to be a coincedence, and I think that there is something in my computer that breaks my graphics cards.  Only one strange thing is that my original gtx 555 works perfectly.

  Has anyone else had this problem with their r4 aurora?

• Alienware Aurora R4. The system fan problems

  Hi, here is my story/problem...
  My computer is a desktop, Alienware Aurora R4. It is less then a year old. This problem started about 5 days ago now. I called the support technique dell twice. and they don't seem to help, I got frustrated with the phone so im hoping it will work...

  So here's the question: my system fan continues to operate at 4150-5000 rpm and only goes to about 1400-2200 rpm at idle. Today, it has begun to stop randomly. I watched 3 ambient temporary sensors all remaining 24-26 degrees Celsius. The PPI and the fans of hard drive are good at all about 1456 and 1089 RPM.

  Initially the RPM increased while I was gaming. but it did not take long and now whenever I try to do anything he will get very hard and RPM goes crazy. Originality, my PC would be slowed to about 1200-1400 rpm and only go up to 2200-2400 RPM, where the game. its almost as if it was under high load when it is not. and its cool so I'm sure that's not over heating.

  I disassembled the pc and cleaned all the fans and dust with the correct air boards. I have confirmed that everything is properly connected. When that didn't help, I found BIOS version A05 then I updated to the A07.  I ran the Dell PC Diag and it passed, the autopsy of alienware last, Ive ran several analyses of McAfee antivirus, reinstalled the Alienware command center and down the stock of dell pc - which posed problems. I paid and installed the mechanic system and fixed these issues.

  The first time I called Dell tech support guy was very friendly and I have not heard his name. He did lose his time with my settings of video card (not sure why as its only the system fan connected to the wheel and the pump, that is the question) he said that he had to be updated so it updated my video card, and that's all. told me he would send me the next day to check if it worked or not. There has never been back in contact with me, and I have no e-mail address. But all that adds to the question... because since he did this update my gaming experience is terrible. I only play World of Warcraft currently. Normally, my FPS are 75 to 100 FPS and now they jump around a bit, but mostly to sit at 2-17 FPS and sometimes go to 50 FPS, if I'm not moving. So im guessing the settings it's fair question... my card is a 2 GB AMD Radeon 7870

  Then, I recalled once again a day later. and the next guy was not as friendly. don't give me his name either. he wouldn't do anything, he just told me that the notes from the last call said that it was not a problem, and that it was quite normal heating. I'm sorry but my house is way cooler in the summer then it's winter and temperatures are always flat and stable. its blowing cool air and a large amount of air. He didn't listen at all.

  then the next day it remains to 4150 rpm for 90% of the day instead of 60% of the day. even if im not using it. And she randomly stopped several times. from what I can find on these forums and online that is as a module fail safe mode... so obviously it is not normal!

  As today is the first day it started to close I wanted to re-run the diag tests, but whenever I try, it runs for a few minutes, then the pc stops. The computer is running too slow, but this may be a different problem. I managed to get the dell diag and system mechanic to run tests, and they spent too. IM at a total loss...

  The air coming from the fan system is very strong and cool so I don't think there are more heating goes on. As far as I can tell the pump works properly and all the fans are running.

  This pc is less then a year old, so it is still warranty on it, as well as I, have purchased another year of warranty shortly before it started actually... And I don't want to try something else without help, because I don't want anything damage or damage my warranty coverage

  I'd appreciate very much any help im at a loss to know what to do, and feel the support tech will start ignoring me if I recall more. If you can help out you can reach me at my email which is [email protected]. Or respond to this conversation.

  Thank you and hope to hear from you,

• Graphics card problems: Alienware Aurora R4

  Hello

  Today, I tried to install a new 770 GTX graphics card in my system, replacing the 1 GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 555 I had initially installed in the system, the graphics card by default. Having no experience with computers, I talked to my friend who gave me the correct warnings to recognize with respect to electrostatics.

  I followed this official video on YouTube and came out of my old graphics card and replaced it with my new. When I started the computer, Alienware logo appeared (with messages you can press F2 or F12) before turning into a black screen with a flashing icon of cursor/underscore (_) in the upper left corner. No key worked.

  Then I tried to replace it with the original graphics card, that had the same issue - but I noticed the blinking cursor was slightly further away from the upper-left corner of the other graphics card. Even if there is a difference, however, neither worked.

  Given that the system has two PCI Express slots, I pulled the screws for metal which has blocked the second and tried to move the GPU. Yet, I was getting the same error.

  After having looked up, some said they had the same problem (on the YouTube comments for linked above video), as well as vary the technical support forums. An answer to this is that the motherboard had blown perhaps. To test this logic, I took the charger for my mobile phone and plugged into a USB port on the computer... the phone has started to load.

  The BIOS does not seem to load, I tried the keys so many times. I contacted ASUS, who did the graphics card, but they do not seem to know, either. This is literally my last resort.

  Thank you.

  Hello. I have what I believe, it's a very simple question, I want to just make sure before I invest the money.

  Can I use any card Nvidia GTX 780 on my Alienware Aurora R4? In my opinion, there are different brands (Asus, EVGA, Gainward, Gigabyte) and I wonder if this would work ok. Are there significant differences between those marks and, if so, which do you recommend?

  My current characteristics are exactly the same as the original poster:

  Intel Core i7-3820 (four main, 10 MB of cache) 3.60 GHz
  Alienware Aurora: 875W matte black chassis
  Memory: 8192 MB (4x2Go) 1600 MHz DDR3 Quad Channel
  Hard drive: 1 TB SATA 6 Gb/s (7200 RPM) 32 MB Cache
  Graphics card: 1 GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 555

  Thank you!

   
  With 875 watt PS, it should work.
   
  Most of the eVGA cards have lifetime warranty (exact model of watch no./SKU you buy actually). I would buy eVGA.

• (Redirected) Is it bad start for Alienware Aurora R4 (UEFI, legacy) mode?

  Recently, I made the stupid mistake of updating my bios as bios 5 to 12 because I get a new graphics card soon and heard that you must update the bios first. As planned, it was wrong and it crashed when rebooting and all-day was stuck at a black screen when starting my PC saying to choose the priority of seed or something.

  Finally, I tried everything to do in F12 menu, I decided to spend the boot mode in the UEFI to legacy. He actually began after doing this and luckily my hard drive is intact, but he had some interesting things that I noticed. First of all, my HARD disk space seems to decrease slightly as I realized to my PC. Second, there was weird stuff with Alien Autopsy (not really, but it has an error message). Also it could run a little bit slower. Hard to say. It starts more slowly as well. Then, change the dangerous startup parameters, or I made the right choice? Or I just ruin my PC today?

  I have an Alienware Aurora R4 running any Windows 7.

• Replace the block to POWER Alienware

  Hey guys, I bought an Alienware Aurora R4 in early 2012 and the PSU is at his last breath, there problems by giving enough power when you do pretty much anything, I get the screen flicker, pilots does not and PC plant, not ideal. I know that you might wonder how well do you know this and that, I spent the time to understand and it is indeed the PSU I used the software, I checked everything manually to see if it's fine. So with that I need a new power supply, I can get a replacement? Any other feeds work with the R4s wiring?

  I would really like to hear something from maybe those who have upgraded to a better diet, I know there a good number of you who have done work on some Alienware cases. Thank you new guys and I hope to hear from some of you soon. PS sorry if this gets asked a lot I do not know this, but all the help I can get is very appreciated if.

  the only one able to work with the harness business supply Aurora are the models 1000/1100/1200 w Area - 51 longer R1, but u lose a disc hard bay in the attempt because of the length. link included below, as well as most of the material of this forum swap. Do not advice that explains how to connect your card grfx with the pattern of cable, like here:

• New Alienware Aurora R4 freezes every time in 50 minutes

  I just got my new Alienware Aurora and oh joy, my first time owning this beautiful Monster - looking for a machine.  I have owned it now for five 5 days; but the experience so far has been frustration, to put it lightly.

  The machine never stays more than 60 minutes at a time.  It crashes.  When it crashes, I hear the fans always roll the led still under the display theme AlienFX I put and it seems that everything is fine, but:

  1. the SCREEN turns off

  2. the keyboard does not work, systems is not responding to strikes again... as the keyboard is dead.

  3 mouse works now.

  4. nothing works, except the DVD tray that always comes out and in.

  5 only the resolution is to force close it down and then turning it back on, via the power button.

  I just installed MS Office, my keyboard and my mouse.  Nothing complicated.  I've now adjusted the power management to ensure that the disc hard system, display, etc. NEVER goes to SLEEP.  Yet, the machine still crashes as usual.  I'm not even games.  Simply creating a document, or watching a training video.  I even decided to just share my training on the Alienware video file and watch the video from another computer; accidents still Alienware and my video stops.  I decided to disable Windows Update, still problem persists.

  I checked EventViewer for clues, NOTHING.  No log entry for when the system unresponsive.  What kind of a computer is what the hell?  I thought that with Alienware, I won't have any hassles, but this has been an exercise in troubleshooting non-stop for me since I got this computer; It became a distraction, as whenever I sit down to work, I find myself troubleshoot the computer each time.  I'm now trying to force me to forget everything and just use my old laptop; that I supposedly replaced when I upgraded to this Alienware machine.

  It's Sunday today, I intend to call technical support for Dell tomorrow to start the support process.  But to give up some lines here just to get feedback / if there are similar experiences that can shed some light on this problem.

  Please any response that can point me in the right direction will be appreciated.

  Hello

  Yes.  A quick update from my post.  I called Dell technical support on Monday 20 October 2014 and the guys were fantastic.  I spoke with a guy named Bogdan; He spent almost 3 hours working with me on the problem over the phone.

  I'll give you a detailed below:

  At the time that I called him, the computer was no longer able to boot the system.  This is because the previous night, I have run AlienRespawn default factory reset, but the shutdown of PC in the process and then was not start over; and instead showed the blue screen.

  So on the phone with Technical Support, we used AlienRespawn USB backup I had created the first day to reset the computer back to factory default.  And then I connected and put things up so that he can have the remote connection to the computer.  As soon as he connected, the computer decided to die just so :).  So we decided to do the Reboot usual cold.  And once again, as soon as it is connected and looking to run some test, the computer exploded again.

  On the third attempt, the computer remained.

  Bogdan then via a remote connection session, several controls and ran several stress-tests on virtually everything (RAM, CPU, graphics, etc.).  All tests came out, as adopted.  And then we installed software to monitor temperature and other stats like stress tests were running; all readings were really good.  Source of the problem was not yet clear.  We have been jointly shrink on two possible culprits, the graphics card or motherboard (or both in the worst case).

  As we are still brainstorming and then try the AlienFX theme colors, the computer decided that it was time to STOP, once again.  And this time it faced a 6 six sound beeps sound sequence several times.  He did this once before, the previous week.

  The machine had a mind of your own.  It was very random behaviors all the time.  He gave beeps when he wanted to.  He has changed the settings of the BIOS on its own; change the default settings, mode strives / EUFI, etc at random :).

  So we turned and technical support preserved in tests.  He also uninstalled and reinstalled the updated version of the Alienware Command Center.  Even after that, all the readings and the results were perfect, but then Switched OFF the machine once again.

  Makes technical support a call to change the four main components: motherboard, graphics card, MasterBoard and Water-Cooling system for the next day.   So I was expecting an engineer for the next day.  That evening, I decided to install all my software and turn on the computer to a State that is useful for my work and play.

  The morning next day (Tuesday), I decided to continue to use the computer and just keep restarting it out every time.  And then, at some point given around 10:00, he remained THERE for nearly two hours (first time he stayed on this long), I was pretty sure that the problem had gone for an unknown reason.  And to share the joy with my Mrs, the machine went OFF :).

  And this time it's completely DEAD.  It was not turn on anymore.  The LEDs and fan are turning on, but not to life on the screen, the keyboard or the mouse.  It remained so until the Dell technician came.

  To my delight, a Dell technician was at my door at about 14:00, with all the necessary parts.  He was also very friendly and empathetic.  He quickly set to work and replaced all suspect parts.  We went ON and, oh joy :).  The machine came back running.

  He made all necessary BIOS settings and my machine was fully operational.

  I used it for almost 2 days now and no problems at all so far.  It's been great, even if sometimes it's like the trauma remains... I still fear that he might simply turn off on me anytime.  But so far so good.

  So I can say at this moment, the issue is resolved and my device is fully operational.  Thanks for the support.  I hope that my very long story somehow help others who have a similar experience with their machine.
