Description
Hey I need a new pc for gaming and I was thinking the Alienware x51 but idk if it's specs are good or not, so I ask you guys to help me out.
For the money, a full-custom tower would be better.
This machine is a compact unit made to close the gap between PC and console, if you have the space and the skills, build a tower, more power for your money.
wouldn't take it overall poor for that high price. 1600 for this one compared with a lets say acer G3600 for 900.
only 4gb memory? The graka you got seems also poor to me.
"only 4gb memory? The graka you got seems also poor to me"
Are you reffering to my PC I posted a while back, check the date, I have upgraded since then, gave that one to my parents...
I have built an I7 LGA2011 system recently.
I refer to this pc here up there and in the link. The price is with 1700$ ridiculous for the poor specs, 4gb (8gb is the minimum for decent gaming) ram 1TB space and an i5 and the card not really being for high performance gaming. I can get an equal machine here for half of the price.
My god, 4 gigs is not decent? what has happened?
You can customise with dell which is good but meh idk
I had been looking at this computer myself and the specs are nice. I would be concerned about airflow and overheating though since its so cramped. In my honest opinion I think you should just go with a real desktop.
For a good computer for gaming, get a Ibm with: Windows Xp, intel Pentium 4 Ht, compatible with Nvidia Geforce graphic cards (I recommend a 9400 gt), and a 160 GB hardrive and you are good to go. I found one Ibm on ebay for 50 US$ and I installed a Nvidia Geforce 9400 gt and the graphics are stunning.
Umm. That sounds like a seriously crappy computer. No offense intended.
