Dude, don't get an Alienware. If you get a cheap one it sucks, and if you get an expensive one your not getting your moneys worth... Trust me.
They compleatly rip you off, the comp I poasted is a good example. You can get a $5,000 comp that is a LITTLE better than the one I just poasted. And I also gave him the link where he can buy all of that for that exact price.
Yeah, don't get an Alienware. I'd recommend AMD CPUs for gaming. They are so much better than Intels at gaming. AMD Athlon 3500+ Venice 1 GB (2x512) OCZ Gold Series RAM DFI Lanparty Ultra-D Motherboard NVIDIA 6800 GT
I agree with that but they are also more expensive, I want to give him a reasonable price for high preformance.
if u dont want to build a computer u can buy one off of www.cyberpowersystem.com they are like alienware but cheaper, u can configure stuff, and it comes prebuilt.
Btw, SirKillAlot09, for the $5000 configuration, why would you go with Intel? With that high of a budget, you can get an AMD X2 4800+ which beats the Intel 840 in everything according to benchmarks.
How reliable can any of that stuff from the cyberpowersystem.com place be? I've found some very nice stuff for a good price but since this isn't exactly a mainstream company, I'm a little uneasy about buying something I'm not sure is going to hold up for the long run.
