I doubt you get so much fps on full on crysis. Unless you run at like 640x480 or something

3x, 4x, GTX 480 SLI, as well as crosfired 5970's, or 5870s dont get over 130 FPS in Crysis at 1280x1024.
So I vote we just ignore the troll.

Shutup, we all know alienware logo and blue leds make your computer blazing fast
It's unfair how retarded people are often happier then those who know the truth. A perfect example is Zydos and his '200 FPS on Crysis'

Wait so you can continue the loop by just connecting your PC directly to the modem and then use the other ethernet port to connect to your router? Trying this now.

You need to bridge the connections in your network connections pane in windows... but yeah.

he said '' full settings''
eh I bought an alienware desktop and it's pretty safe to say they're pieces of shit (got mine sent with a busted mobo)
their laptops are quite well built, actually. They recently crammed a bunch of high power parts into a netbook, which was great. laptops good (they're overpriced everywhere else, too, not as much as AW of course)
Dell makes good laptops, Gateway makes good laptops, and Sager makes good laptops.
[editline]04:40PM[/editline]
I mean with Sager, for $1,500 you get a 15.6" LED backlit 1920x1080 display, an i7 720QM, a 5870M, Windows 7 Home Premium x64, 4GB DDR3 1066MHz, and a 320GB HDD.
15" 1080? Crisp.
[QUOTE=Panda X;22689158]15" 1080? Crisp.[/QUOTE]
Yeah 1680x1050 on my laptop's 15.4" screen is already insanely crisp.
[QUOTE=Odellus;22689232]Yeah 1680x1050 on my laptop's 15.4" screen is already insanely crisp.[/QUOTE]
Im pretty sure that 14.1" with 1680x1050 is the highest PPI/pixel density you can get in a laptop.

There's something terribly wrong with your router; I don't get any latency or bandwidth issues through a router. Same story for the computer I have in my basement that feeds off the wireless and gives other computers internet through a totally separate LAN.
Honestly, I love mine. Also, before you yell at me, I took all the parts I could find on Newegg that are in my computer and got $1378.98. That's not including the GPU, PSU, water cooling, keyboard, mouse, fans, motherboard, wireless card, or this badass looking case. And yes, it is an Aurora.
Specs:
Intel i7 920
GTS 240
12GB RAM
525W PSU
Sound Blaster X-Fi
Windows 7
Thats really it. I think its a pretty good buy fro $1600 including all the extra crap they through
Alienware's are fine. I bought one 2 years ago, for $1200, and I got a new case but I've had no issues with it.

Isn't it pretty much impossible to remove a dell/alienware mobo from the computer without wrecking the ground?
And isn't it a bitch to find a BTX case for it?
Not saying that what you're saying isn't true, I'm just a bit skeptical.

You're joke kind of failed since he did mention full settings.
I'm guessing he full = max
I got my Aurora half a year ago. I love it, havn't had any problems. For 1444 euro I got:
Intel X58 Mobo
Ati 5870
6 Gig ram DDR3 (triple channel)
875 Watt PSU
1TB 7200 RPM hard drive
Intel I7 920 @ 2.67 Ghz (yeah I know I should overclock it)
24x optical drive
Liquied cooling
I did get a 5% discount, but thats it. Alienware is worth the money if you ask me.
[QUOTE=ManningQB18;22684050]I don't think some blinky lights and shiny alien symbols are worth $1000[/QUOTE]
what dude dont you know that each light you have it makes the computer 2x faster i have a lot of lights on my computer and even on my monitor

Europe is a different story... prices for parts are a lot higher than the US and Canada. Probably isn't that much pricier for a prebuilt compared to getting the parts yourself.

well thanks for confirming you wasted a lot of money on a terrible system
have fun with your mid range card (hah, in a system meant for gaming), workstation CPU and ridiculous amounts of RAM you'll never come close to using
but hey, money well spent if you get all those lights that make you look like a spoilt 13 year old right
