I want to buy a very good computer

Hi,
I want to buy a computer with about 1,000 to 1,500 US dollars. I want it to have good graphics and I want it to be very fast.
I thought about buying this computer – http://www.alienware.co.uk/product_detail_pages/Area-51/area-51_overview.aspx?SysCode=PC-EU-AREA51-R6&SubCode=SKU-DEFAULT What do you think? Worth it? I don’t really need 4 TB, even half TB is enough for me…
Can you please tell me you opinion about it? If you have a better suggestion for the budget I have please post it here
Please help,
Ofir.
Answer #1
always build them yourself. you can get better parts and save money. alienware is way overpriced.
Answer #2
Nowadays Alienware is just a name, it�s total crap …
See http://www.tomshardware.com
They have monthly checkups on the best price-quality and they build test systems ..
Answer #3
Don’t buy an Alienware. What Alienware does is get parts, put them in a nice case, increase the price on each and every part, and they sell it.
Buy your own parts and put them together. It’s really easy and much cheaper. For �1,034 you can buy a very strong machine, one much stronger than that Alienware you want.
Keep in mind the price of that Alienware is in pounds, not USD.

seconded, Alienware may look sexy to some people, but the $ really isn’t worth it compared to the price if you built it.

Also maybe a x38 motherboard. It’s cheaper than the P5Q Deluxe
