Best computer brand today?

[LukeBurnsRed]

In your opinion, what is the best brand of computer out there today? And what computer would you get? Please don't respond with 'Alienware for gamez' as I've heard that many times. I'm looking for a good computer that can support games, but I'm not looking to spend all that money on an Alienware computer.

All input is appreciated!

To get what you really want, I would suggest building your own computer. My friend did it, and you wouldn't believe how much you save from building your own computer, rather than buying an expensive one already built like alienware.

Just make sure that you buy every single part necessary; not like you wouldn't know that.

A good website I'd recommend is http://www.newegg.com

One that you built yourself. Nothing's more fun for me than going to my local CompUSA and picking up some new hardware

Yes, very true. Building your own computer is normally cheaper and much better. I have built a couple of computers with my uncle but in my house, I have a pair of Dells, a Gateway lap, and a Macbook (honestly I hate macs).

Honestly, I have always been happy with my Dells, but they aren't really made for gaming.. My gateway gets the job done, but its battery life is crap. Macbook...well I am unfamiliar with Mac OS so I never use it.

I generally don't like Dell but I gotta say their XPS series is really good and robust. So I'd go with Dell. But as others have said, the best option is to build your own computer (much cheaper, more fun, but takes a little time and stuff)

the ones that you build yourself , otherwise go with dell since my dad works there XD

I love messing around with my computer i built, recently just bought a liquid cooling system and installed that.

Alienware for Gaming laptops otherwise I stick with toshiba

 

[davidh93]

alienwares are actually extremely overpriced, the dell xps ones are about the same configs without the retarded plastic logo that makes it 2x more expensive

ASUS laptops are better TBH, cheaper with the same specs..

 

[LukeBurnsRed]

Thanks guys! I think I'm going to look into building one myself. It will take quite a bit of research but it should be good.

I like sony vio and alienware for gaming. but overall sony vio

 

[Sarad0m1nz]

ASUS is very reliable, efficient and affordable to sum it all up. Sony vio is much more expensive, and you're only really paying extra for the label.

I built my own pc with same specs as an alienware has costing me only 700$..

Your reading ability is remarkable.

I've also been looking into the Dell XPS. They have insane specs and the one I have atm from '06 is just a beast. On top of that, the price is extremely good at ~1k for an XPS with over-the-top specs and hardware.

 

[LukeBurnsRed]

You can probably get a better ASUS one? I remember when I went PC hunting a while ago I found a better one for the same price(Comparing it to the XPS). But it was a while ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought ASUS computers were fairly expensive? Not positive on that, but I was looking up some info on them and they only sell on the odd reseller site in Canada and the laptops I saw were ~$1500+. :\
