A: AnswerHi Tom, This has Intel Killer™ 1750 2x2 and Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless Card with Wifi 7 ReadyAnswered by YourDellTeam
- A: AnswerOnly the RTX 4080s come with the “English US AlienFX RGB backlit Alienware CherryMX ultra low-profile mechanical keyboard” The one featured here is a 4070. So by default you will not get the CherryMX keyboard.

When an Alien and XPS have a baby
I've used a lot of Alienware devices over the past decade and this is by far one of the best. This new design shares similarities with the XPS, which is also a solid platform. It's very much like the best of both platforms were merged into one. Performance, quality, and usability are great. Very happy with this.

Device is perfect but device comes without RGB touchpad. Dell says only 4080 and 4090 confs comes with RGB touchpad.
