Lets not turn this into another debate... no one is ever going to agree, just like no one ever agrees which Empire is more powerful...

We are not the offical forums here I'd like to think we're a step above.

I got an alienware once before I realized how simple and cost-effective it was to build your own computer. I was happy with it, and it was top of the line, but I sure wouldn't fall for it again.

You can get much prettier cases/save money/etc/etc/etc by doing it yourself. And honestly, anybody could build their own computer, they just need to get over the fear and have a little help along the way.

Blah, my experience with Alienware wasn't as good. We spent over $3000 (close to $4000) on a new comp from Alienware and it wouldn't even work when we got it. It would freeze up and I couldn't play any games at all.

My whole system was about 4,500 w/ Monitor and Speakers. I love it, the case kicks ass,and it runs every game perfect. I can't complain.

I rather enjoy getting more 3dmarks than 2 of my friends with Alienware systems that cost 2-3x as much as mine did.

Oh, and you can make home-built systems that look *much* better than their crap - that alien logo over the fan grilles (on some models) and the rest of the case looks really tacky.

Hey Powda if I ship you my computer along with a new MB, power supply and processor, will you put them in? And if you blow the whole thing sky high can I kill you?

Wait...you'd just pawn the whole thing wouldn't you?

I would never install any hardware myself. Especially with an Alienware, I would rather leave it to the pros.

My theory is if I put a $600 processor in my computer witha $200 mobo and I fry it, I'm out $800. If I hire someone else to do it, and they fry it, it's their problem. Of course that's totally untrue depending on who you hire but Alienware's #1 aspect that I love is actual customer service and not shitty "Thank you for calling Dell, I have no idea what I'm doing and in fact have never even seen the inside of a computer, but let me just ask you 30 minutes of inane and insulting questions before even asking what your problem is" customer service
