Answer 1

If i was to buy that computer i would get more RAM (memory) 4GB, and also a bigger HDD (hard drive) around 500GB+

Answer 2

It is okay but since its from alienware i would say its bad. They are way overpriced. i could build that pc for about 600 usd. Just buy the parts from newegg and it will be alot cheaper. The only good thing about alienware is that they have nice cases and it is built for you and tested by them.  

Answer 3

I Don't Like The Processor, Graphics SUPERB!!! Memory, Could Use Another 2 Gigs. Motherboard Not Bad. Operating System Is Ok. (I'm Not A Vistan Fan, But It's Ok!.) Good Hard Disk, CD + DVD is Great!

I Don't Care About Sound, As Long As It Works!

Overall, It's A Good PC, Capable Of Doing Many Things...

Answer 4

It's adequate for most scenarios. The graphics isn't that powerful, but it can run most games.

I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to computers, so I would shell out the extra $ for a Radeon HD 4870 over the 9600GT.

Answer 5

was all going so well till vista popped up, same again with the ram and hdd

and to top it off a blu ray writer would be nice  

Answer 6

I would think it'd be a decent gaming rig, but nothing mind-blowing.  It should be able to handle most games that are out now at fairly high settings.  

Most parts on an Alienware should be easy to swap, but considering that Dell bought Alienware, I'm betting that at the very least the motherboard has been adapted to Dell's own form factor.    

Answer 7

I would love to have that computer except one thing maybe add a little more more memory to your hard drive but other than that its amazing

Answer 8

I would double the RAM and change the harddrive to something a little bigger.
