## Questions & Answers

**Q: can change the keyboard US to LA?**
A: No, this system comes with an English keyboard. However you can change the system language from windows language settings.

**Q: Can this play games like gta V, Watch Dogs, and other high graphic games with little lag?**
A: Hello,Yes it can at Medium, Medium/high settings,  not Ultra maxed out or anything like that,  for that smooth stable 60 fps,  I would stick with medium. newer games are becoming more and more demanding like Watch Dogs 2 for example, that may be on the medium/low settings possibly lower resolution at higher settings..   you will have to adjust the settings or just use the medium presets first, than from there you see how the game runs.  Hope that helps,  Have a happy holiday

**Q: is this touch screen?**
A: Microsoft Store has a Alienware Model #ANW15-8214SLV touch screen.  With Student E-Mail address  its 1,799.15.6 in 4K UHD IPS touchscreenIntel Core i7-6700HQ 2.60 GHz256GB SSD + 1TB 7200 RPM HDD16GB DDR4 2133 MHzNVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M graphics with 3GB graphics memory

**Q: Is the cooling system great? My old laptop is always overheat**
A: I have to say this laptop is great except for the cooling system . I mean when I use this laptop for woking, the fan works fine to me. But when I run some games like COD, the fan will be crazy, pretty loud. I haven't try the external fan which is pluged in USB. I have heared that the external fan can solve that problem.
