I like that Case. I'm a 100% DIY for desktop systems though, so Alienware doesn't appeal to me.

Alienware is overpriced but they make nice products. If one can afford it, I say more power to you. I like your case and keyboard. Not sure the advantage of an alienware monitor.

Some of their laptops are a bit garish for my taste as well. What is the hardware in your system?

system is quite old

CPU : 3970X @ 5GHz (Intel EE Extreme Edition)
RAM: 32GB DDR3
HD : 4TB
GPU: 7970GHz (2) ---- upgrading to GTX Titan-X


cpu at 5ghz is way too hot for the horrible alienware cooling system, i benched it on custom loop (can reach 5.2, but 5.0 was rs)

I don't hate, but... you probably overspent to get funny looking stickers.

Michael Dell is lighting a cigar with a $100 bill in your honor, I'm sure.

case, mouse and keyboard look ugly.

if you just got this, the monitor is an outdated. there 144hz monitors out now.

Not a fan of the aesthetics. I hate plastic and lights, and much prefer lines to curves.

This is more my speed:

What they said.

Alienware was bought up by Dell years ago and is just a more expensive version these days isn't it?

Since you asked for it...

Alienware is played out and will never look as cool to me as even the most basic of custom builds. Anyone can walk order a prebuilt computer, but only those who are really in to the hobby build them.

I have an Alienware X51 with an Ivy 4770 and an Alienware 13

LOVE them both.

No hassle, small and compact, and if there is a hardware issue, I have next day support (3 years on both originally).

I did IT support in the past, it is nice that it is not my hassle anymore.

Alienware= over priced Dell. Not a hater, I don't have a ton of money. So my logic is I can build it myself, and the money I save(over half)will go towards the build.

hi!

I was not giving advices to build Alienware stuff (i don t like their actual products!)

In years of forum discussions i ve never said anybody to buy Alienware pcs :)

The thread was only to show my setup and to know what pple think of it (not of Alienware products)

- The thread is not and advice to buy Alienware, i hope nobody of you will never buy one!

- most pple always talk about money, the post is not about money (i have said 10 times i haven t paid it )

English, do you speak it?

What do you mean by "haven't paid it"? Did your mom buy it for you? Or are you up to your eyeballs in credit card debt?

You are always talking about money, stop it!

Although my laptop is an alienware I plan to shop around when I have to replace it because when I bought it the selection for desktop replacement laptops was rather limited. These days there are more options and I would be inclined to buy an Asus model. As for desktops I build my own and always will but respect that the OP is excited about showing us his new rigs and as long as he's happy with them that is all that matters.

Hi! Tnx for the opinion! You can still build your rig and own an alienware desktop too, like i did!


I Currently build my bench rigs!
But i don t post pics, because they re normal case with triple samsung monitor setup and the default nerd s logitech stuff. I don t like their aesthetics and they don t have appeal to me.

Good Gaming!
