I can't recommend any pre-built PC's, as they are always overpriced. Building is very easy, and you will only mess it up if you try to build it with no guides.

I don't get it... We can't make any recommendation at all without a budget. There's not a thing wrong with the computers some prebuilders like Cyberpower or iBuypower put out, just expect to pay significantly more for the same hardware. If it's a compromise you're willing to make, go ahead. At least you're getting good components.

If you think building a PC's hard or risky, check this out. Taken from the PC topic:

HARDWARE INFO & BUILD GUIDES

iThorHD's Complete Guide to Upgrading & Building Your Own Computer:
Forums/t=1722108/the-complete-gui...puter.html

This guide is extremely comprehensive and goes into great detail about each component. Required reading!

Here are some videos that will help you understand what it takes to build a PC. I think you'll find it's... Not much!

Hardware Canucks:


Newegg:



If you're thinking about a gaming laptop, split what you'd pay for it, build a dedicated gaming desktop, and get an ultraportable laptop.

Unless you'll be hosting raves on your keyboard, of course.

You'd be better off purchasing a lamp if you were looking to light your room up. (Alienware Led joke)

Honestly alien ware offers parts that are only medium good and then they crazily overcharge you for them building it for you. They also add in LEDs to make it look fancy.

Vote wrote Well I'm getting a computer for my b-day ( we're not going to build one, we're jsut gonna get a pre-built one.) Are they worth it?

no its not worth getting an alienware they are really overpriced and they are really bad
1 - they don't say what motherboard your getting because you will probably just get a stock one
2)they only last for about 3 years
3)they are really overpriced if you bought all the parts and case separately your will get a
massive difference in price
