Alienware Graphics Amplifier (9R7Xn)

Took a while for me to get a functional Graphics Card but now that I got one and have it hooked up correctly this really proves the processing power of Alienware laptops immensely, easy to set up, always works when set up & the best connection bandwidth with thunderbolt component for high quality gaming, Dell makes some good gaming computer consuls

Bought this for my son's Alienware 13 R2. He is into games and wanted to hook the Alienware up to a monitor with a larger screen. At first we tried to avoid buying this amplifier and just connected a monitor directly to the HDMI port in the back of the laptop, but there was a lot of lag times...it just didn't work very well. In our configuration, we use a GeForce GTX 1060 Mini 3GB GDDR5 Super Compact Graphics Card ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 Mini 3GB GDDR5 Super Compact Graphics Card (ZT-P10610A-10L) and for the monitor we use an Acer XF240H Acer XF240H bmjdpr 24-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) AMD FreeSync Display (Display Port, DVI & HDMI Port, 144Hz Refresh Rate) . At first, the signal from the amplifier was not picked up by the monitor. The laptop itself would not recognize the the second screen, although the light on the front of the amp would come on when we turned the laptop on. The signal just wouldn't transmit from the amp to the monitor. I then went online and downloaded the driver for the graphics card, rebooted, and then all worked well. We are using a display port connection. I highly recommend this if you want to give your Alienware a boost for gaming...it works perfectly. I also recommend the card and the monitor I mention above...no lag times, absolutely beautiful display. If things change as we use it more, I will update this review...thanks for reading....hope our experience helped!

Tengo una ALIENWARE 17R3 con una tarjeta gráfica de 970, pero necesitaba aún mas rapidez en cuestión de gráficos, soy arquitecto y trabajo con programas demasiado pesados, además, me gusta jugar en mis tiempos libres en simuladores como el Flight Simulator que exige muchos gráficos, esto me vino de lujo sin tener que cambiar mi pc por una ALIENWARE nueva. El Amplificador viene super bien empacado, cuenta con todos sus cables y en mi caso compre una RTX 2060 de MSI y le quedo perfecta, batallé un poco para cerrar el cajón pero era cuestión de acomodar bien mi tarjeta gráfica. Contiene en el paquete: *Soportó gráficos 4K. *Hasta ahora el rendimiento ha sido espectacular, claro con su correspondiente tarjeta gráfica (que se compra aparte). *No necesité de actualizar todo el sistema para que la reconociera, solo descargue el driver en Dell y listo reinicié y la reconoció. *Cuando ya esta conectado el cable especial de ALIENWARE encienden ambas cabezas de un color blanco. Se puede cambiar la luz led de color desde el Alienware FX. *Trae su cable ALIENWARE especial. *Cable de corriente. Todo excelente, muy recomendable.

I just bought this graphics amplifier and its working brilliantly with my alienware 15 r2 which i bought late 2016.iam using the asus gtx 1070 8gb pascal graphics and all the latest editions of the game i can play with the maxed out settings at ULTRA settings at almost 65FPS.yes portability is a hinderance for this product but if you are planning to keep it docked somewhere for a long time then i think it just works fine.all you need to do is you should get slightly bigger luggage bag.its not that big and for me its portable as iam a sailor and would like to play all the latest editions with the maxed out settings in the middle of the ocean.This product is brilliant.

Llevo algun tiempo usandolo y me parece excelente, lo unico que no me gusto es que no cierra con una Strix 1080 asus, pero no se si el problema es de que hicieron la grafica mas grande o el cajon muy pequeño por eso le doy 5, igual me gusta mucho como se ve abierto, hace lucir mas la tarjeta y sus luces ademas de que se ve pro. Rendimiento increible y la instalacion solo fue conectar el cable y encender la alienware.
