Alienware is mad overpriced, look for Immortality :3

Alienware is horrible and overpriced crap.


You might want to look into building. I wouldn't get a laptop, laptops are not meant for high end gaming.

I'm going to buy the new octocore CPU from AMD

Alienware is a great place to get PC's if you don't care about throwing away your money. Everything there is about 40% overpriced or more. It can get pretty bad.

If you want a good pc (one that wont go bad) make a custom PC. May I recommend:

small recommendations (not everything)

CPU: Intel Core i5 2500k
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD 6950
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P67X-UD3-B3
RAM: Corsair XMS3 memory, 4x4 GB
Harddisk: 2x Seagate Barracuda 7200

 

[Inxy]

16GB are you high? He probably won't even utilize 4GB RAM. Segate hard drive are crappy hard drive that's got a high failure rate.


Lul, Alienware or Dell use's cheapest parts. I rather get my dick removed than buy that crap.

 

[Cona]

Any ideas for a power supply?

Friend uses seagate (i dont, because I am not upgrading my shitty pc till around december, during my birthday so i can get it as a 'graduation present' from my dad (dont have to pay jack!)) and I've never seen him have a problem with it. If it ever does, RAM isn't that expensive nowadays anyways.

Also, it was just a example. 4x4 is great, but sometimes an overkill if your not planning to run things on high with other good hardware.

 

[Inxy]

Changed your HDD to Caviar black or Samsung spinpoint F3. For power supply, I would go for a reputable brand like Antec,Corsair or Seasonic. 600w-700w should do fine

 

[Cona]

Sweet as.

Thanks mate.
