Alienware FX: do I need it?
Hi there,
I have noticed that even though the boot is quite fast on my Alienware 51 R3, after I log in there are a couple of programs that take a few minutes before they load, and when they do, the mouse stutter for a moment and then it goes back to normal.
The two programs are the Alienware's:
Do I actually need them or can I turn them off?
If so, how? I searched in the task manager under startup but I couldn't find them.
Same goes for the startup folder, where I only see the Killer Control Center.
Any hints?
No Events found!

Hi @verysame,
Not actually needed, but recommended.
The AlienFX is to control the system lights and the other one is the Thermal Control.
