I'll start by saying I'm BIASED to AMD

But at the same time, the issues you've listed seems to be specific to Dell/Alienware shitty software. High temps are a trademark of Alienware thin designs. Software (and drivers and AWCC or Dell CC causing driver fk ups) are also their weak point necessitating updates after updates to fix.

Terribly specced display over lower tier options seems to be a cost cutting measure. Which makes me think Dell/Alienware decided to rush this to be first with the hardware. Here's hoping some other OEMs decided to take this up and actually do it right.

I would also be surprised if Adrenaline tuning works on the 7000 series tho. Last I heard was that the 7600 series were locked out. My 6600m and some guys 6700m were also locked but I haven't read about 6800m being locked out yet. We could only do manual tuning via MPT unless we roll drivers back.
