who cares, if he wants to spend his money on something that can easily be acquired by something a lot cheaper, then let him. If he ignores all the arguments against aw, he's obviously too rich to care
You are the biggest idiot if you buy an Alienware PC.
For less of the money, I can afford to buy an i7 980x (well it's totally absurd in fact, the i7 930 will just be fine), HD 5970, Asus P6T Deluxe V2, 3x2GB Corsair Dominator 1600Mhz, Intel SSD X-25M 80/160Go, ...
Alienware computers are completly absurd compared to this.

The Phenom X6 1090t seems to be a good alternative of i7 980x, but I'm not sure.
Ignore the OP. He just comes in here, asking for stuff, and then decide something way off and then flips off the rest. Let him buy his alienware.
ahahahhahahahaa
since he hasn't posted for a while i will just assume he's already bought it
What a fucking scam alien ware is. Troll op btw.
At least it's not a mac

Alienware desktops / all prebuilts are a ridiculous waste of money - you are [b]FAR[/b] better off building it yourself.[/QUOTE]
Not always the case, sure Alien ware is a bad example but you can sometimes end up saving money by buying a pre-built.
This... Why? I'm sure OP doesn't check this thread anymore, but seriously, he could have saved alot of money not buying that alienware...

WTF?!?! SO MUCH RAM? IMPOSSIBLE! HOW DID THEY FIT THAT INTO THE 2499$ BUDGET?!
On a more serious; The Xeon is the only component of worth in that... Other than maybe the chassis..
Edit: PAGE KING!

I have a mac pro. Before you guys bitch, I got it for free, wasn't gonna turn it down. So yeah, pretty much the only part that's good for gaming is the processor. I get so much fps on games that aren't graphics intensive. I'm thinking of upgrading the RAM (I only have 2 gigs!) and the graphics (thinking of the [url=http://store.apple.com/us/product/TW387ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MTA4MzU2MDA&s=priceHL]EVGA GeForce GTX 285[/url]). What do you guys think?
[editline]01:04PM[/editline]
Right now I have the Radeon HD 2600 XT. It sucks.
When did you get that Mac Pro?
[QUOTE=GoDong-DK;22119010]When did you get that Mac Pro?[/QUOTE]
Last year. So the video card crapped out on me like an hour after my last post, and I had to go out and get the 120 GT. It's definitely a lot better than my last card.

Mac pro's aren't meant for gaming anyway. Mostly desktop servers or workstations
I love macs
Dont disagree, they are lovely if you want something simple thats not for gaming. I have a macbook pro and i got a macbook air for free, love it, use it for designing work and stuff.
Dont disagree, they are a work of art, appart from its stupid you cant upgrade them :(
Or save a few hundred and make a quick cheap build that can be upgraded if you need to.

Yeah but you gotta pay out your ass for this "work of art" when all you want is something that works.

By those standards, so is this:

I think that it's a fair comparison, actually; both are built for people with more money than sense, and both are full of shit.

Agree with above post.
And Cmanatlan, last year? It was a old version there wasn't i?

Yeah, but the 120 GT works on early 2009 Mac Pros. Before the upgrade, I could only run source games at medium everything, and no AA, with 30 fps. Now I can run them at very high, with max AA, and get 60 fps. I don't care if my computer's not meant for gaming, all I play is source games, so this card is good enough for me.
Ok.. Still sucks though...

What's a 120 GT I've only heard about the GT 120.
MACS are great products, buy one if your not a gamer or something like that, get a MAC, lovely products, fun to work with and a nice thing to have instead of a big heavy lump of a computer
Though they are amazingly over priced

No one's telling you to get a mac, I'm not one of those mac fanboys that shoves it down everyone's throat, I acknowledge that PCs are infinitely better for gaming. Does that mean my computer sucks? The computer cost me 150 dollars and it does what I need it to do, but some people still insist on telling me I should ditch it and build a custom rig.
Im not a mac fanboy, they are just pretty
I prefer PCS
I don't like how the term "PC" usually refers to Microsoft Windows Based computers.

You mean more eyeballs than braincells? I'm fairly certain everyone has more braincells than eyeballs.
