Alienware Computers - Custom-Built Gaming Desktops and Laptops

Do it sir!

the hell with that lol prices are freakin insane

Alienware is good, but you spend an extra 2000$ on the name alone. Custom built is cheaper, and most times better.

Look at this, this alone is a melee weapon, so it must be awesome when it allows you to game. Newegg.com - XFX HD-597A-CNB9 Radeon HD 5970 Black Edition 2GB 512 (256 x 2)-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

I actually have the step below this, HD5870 XFX XXX Ed. Buggy yes, but it's new and nothing is without follies when new.

BRAND NEW INTERNAL 1TB SATA HARD DRIVE With Windows 7 - eBay (item 140359851504 end time Feb-12-10 08:39:48 PST)

check that out for a HDD. Bout 150 shipped, but it's a 1TB HDD with a legit copy of Windows7 Ultimate (x86 and x64) and a unique key. I can vouch for these as i have one currently installed and the w7 activated/updates no problem! Hell of a steal considering w7 ultimate (last time i checked) was $217!

[SmurfSniper]

ok.... so still waiting on my taxes O.o but figured a lil update here and its still not under 1500 but I am about positive this will be the final for my new pc.

good luck on building a new comp. i'm thinking about at least updating mine as well. it runs pretty nicely, but it's capabilities are so much higher than what i'm actually doing with it. unfortunately, i still don't as much as i'd like to do anything major. :/ research and learning ftw. have fun!
