If you see Intel® Core? i7-2630QM Processor (6M Cache, 2.00 GHz) the 2GHz base i7 won't run RAM at 1600MHz
So, alienware still ask you to get 1600Mhz even if u buy a base i7?

I seen these somewhere in here, and some people suggest you can use the 1333Mhz one and overclocked it to 1600Mhz. Though I always knew that the i7 2630 doesnt support the 1600Mhz, so no idea.
PS I will link the thread here If I can find it.
EDIT: Finally found it! Here: 2630QM and 1600mhz RAM -
I would like to buy a 2.2GHz on a r2 refresh and overclock 1600MHz to 1866MHz
lets just hope the GPU on ze next refresh would run metro 2033 max -
okay, somebody have posted a link. good luck everybody

You need to overclock it in the bios, enable memory overclocking or something like that and set it to 1600mhz.

but OC isn't a very good thing 2 do u know
especially on a laptop -
2GHz i7 will not run 1600MHz ram (according to intel)
