Alienware help

So basically I need help choosing what kind of alienware laptop to get. I want your opinion on which one and the specs of it. I have a budget of around 3000 usd and I need a 256g solid state harddrive. Thanks.

 

Why alienware?

You could get a bitchin asus or sager for that price

 

Don't get an alienware to be honest, you're paying for the brand, not the computer.

Try building one yourself buying the parts off of newegg, preferably on sale.

Do that and you could get an identical computer for a fraction of the price.

 

^^^ffor a laptop?



I personally would customize this one to what I like

Triple channel ram, dual gpu's, powerful desktop processor.

Outstanding computer, better than most desktops.

 

Oh sorry, I totally skipped over that part.

Go with what Kill Dank is yelling you, Asus computer are great for the money, you get much more when paying for those then you would for an Alienware.

 

To give you an idea of price difference, I play Crysis, maxed, on a $1300 laptop. Alienware is unnecessary.

 

ASUS is probably the best mainstream brand for gaming lappies.

 

Dont get alienware, they rise price too much with bling bling stuff
for example normal computer from normal shop costs 1000 USD
but from alienware u get same for 3000 USD

 

Like everyone is saying don't go for Alienware, you can find a laptop with the exact same specs at loads of other places for a fraction of the price. The only thing that makes alienware more expensive is that your paying for the design on their cases and your paying for the logo, that is all.
