s4lem0nsen Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Hi! I recently acquired a very nice m14x R1 and was wondering if the Alienware experts in here know if I can swap out the mobo to a r2 with the 3 series Intel cpu and gt650 from NVIDIA? Or did they do anything chassis wise between these versions? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxware79 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I believe the boards have the identical layout. You may have an issue with the keyboard though. While they are also identical, it's compatible one way not just quite 100% the other way. Can't remember which way it was though.
