Alienware PC

i made my own PC... pentium 4 3.6ghz HT on a gigabyte 975 motherboard, 3GB ram DDR, 250GB hard disk. Nvidea FX5950 ultra 256mb graphics. Gigabyte 3D hypercooling fan. this cost me the equivelent of $1500/- US and this thing will be able kick anythings ass... just go's to show u can make a better PC for a fraction of the price that they are charging.

 

Get "Building PCs for Dummies". It's an awesome book if it's your first time building a PC.

 

yea thats not entirely true unless you want to spend up to 6grand for your pc. ther are plenty of other good companies such as falcon northwest but i would suggest just building your own. its so much easier, funer, and cheaper.

 

AlienWare for only rich people

 

keep it real guys... how many poeple are willing to make their own computer when they can go to the store , maybe get a cheeseburger on the way and buy a computer for a couple hunded more...this is america...sorry to keep it real.. but we are lazy ----ig bastards. hshs

 

i know exactly how you feel.

i was about to buy an alienware for the advertised price ($960)

but oh then you have to customize it with all the specs you need, or it will suck, then you have to get a monitor, and then overpriced shipping and handling...

the final price was around $1400

at this point i realized, i was just spending this much for name and looks.

So pretty much the moral of this story is, buy a good dell for half the price..

 

not everyone :lol: i have built over 15 computers in my life and so far there only has been a problem with one. the floppy drive died out so i left it like cus now i use flash drives

 

Overpriced... you could build the ultimate computer for the price of some of their mid-range computers.

 

just like what everyone else has said great computer just OVERPRICED

 

Alienware P.C.s are nice, but they're designed for gaming and aren;t too good in other things. Best making your own P.C. which is good at everything .


Dont get me wrong, alienware is a great company, but the prices are too high for the average human ta buy, and building your own is cheaper and you can get better results

 

Like said, if you build your own you cut the price down ALOT. But if your not common to computer parts having an Alienware will make you a happy AVID GAMER!

 

I heard of Alienware b4 and it was my top one choice for my new comptuer

 

Yea I'm still thinking about getting one. They have some PC's for $500 & some for near $2,000

 

Overpriced. I've built ones for cheaper that can smoke their $5000 computers.

 

I don't care much for alienware due to the fact they are wayyyyy overpriced for what you get.

You could build a similar computer for nearly half the price if you shop newegg or pricewatch.

Then again, if you can't handle building one, then I guess alienware is ok if you have the money to blow.
