How much did you pay for it? I bet it's double the price you would normally pay if you just made one yourself. Bah, Alienware!

But I do envy you since you have the money to buy something like that. If I have the money though I wouldn't have bought an Alienware. They have an unjustifiably steep prices for their systems.

[Forsaken]

Only a gig of ram?

[Bentusi]

I considered building it, but I'm just tired of building and maintaining my own systems atm.

Yeah only a gig, I'm planning on putting more in and a second vid card when I have the money

[Tigre]

Nice rig Bent!! Have fun!!

[The Dark Messenger]

Good comp, if probably insanely overpriced :D

Could you buy me one of them? My birthday's in a couple of months :P

[Fragman]

for what he paid he probly could have build almost 2 pc of the same quality nah maybe 1 and a half

Graphics Processor: NVIDIA® GeForce™ 6800 Ultra PCI Express 256MB DDR3 w/Dual Digital and TV Out

Windows XP (as of now) will only support 1GB of RAM. any extra it disregards. dont bother until longhorn (2006) just keep increasing FSB and the speed of you memory.

[Blazej]

GeForce 6800 Ultra wont work in SLI mode, only 6600 GT and 6800 GT will. No DVD rec. Anyway great machine and great money.

[Lucid Angel]

Nice!

[/<yle]

i hate you and love you. Come play eve!

[Abyss]

Howly F*ck! Thats an insane computer!!! *wonders if the alienware mobo is made by asus or msi? That comp is PWNage.

[Bentusi]

I do belive the 6800 ultra will work in SLI mode, it was infact an option in building the thing

[The Fell Hand]

bent's right joo newbs. pci express ultras work fine in pairs as well.

[Bentusi]

[amir]

[laserflip]

[Polaris]

<-- would rather build his own machine.
its a kind of an ... obsession, i guess. kinda like "DONTCHU F'N DARE TOUCH MY PRECIOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"
lol

[KPR[X-303]]

Ahh im surprised you didnt ask for any complementary games lol

[Papa Smurf]

thats a great machine

[Bentusi]

I was goin through the Alienware site Laser (my machine is delayed because of various problems, I had to re-order it) and I saw something I hadn't noticed.

As an option, under the title Biometrics, Alienware has a fingerprint security system for your computer for 50 dollars.

No shit, I swear to god I was soooo tempted

[eXoRciSt]

I use Geforce4 mx 4000 it sucks and should be illegal to use.

i have liek 512 ram,

uh....

2.80 ghz preccesor.

then again it is an 1300 $ e-machine biught 2 years ago, barly upgraded, so its weak.

[Bentusi]

i've seen these things at like OfficeMax for ~$15
lol
theyve been around for at least 4-5 years, just not as practical as an ASCII pw

[mOle]

good thing you didn't seeing as US goes about their business, fuck cookies and adware and spyware, they'd use teh finger to track you so no iffy stuff on that comp :D

nice rig altho you missed all the joy of sticking it all together yourself

[FluxX]

You can make a monster of a system for £1500 or lower. I have heard of people doing it for £500!

My system however...

1800+AMD (underclocked!!! to 1.1ghz, 1600+ equivalent :( )
Asus A7Asomthing mobo
256mb 133 DDR
GF3TI 200 Overclocked by about 10-25%
50GB HDD...
Sound Farter Card...

I am considering getting a laptop, as I cannot be botherd to build my own system or maintain it anymore. Also, portability is a bonus. But I am skint at the moment :( .
