Feel the thrill. This X51 builds with the new 4th Gen Intel Core i7, Windows 8 and NVIDIA GTX 760 graphics. 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1600Mhz, 1.5GB GDDR5 NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 760
 
Solution
I have an alienware laptop. Good service, I personally wouldn't buy a desktop, they are just not powerful enough and twice the price of an own build., but lappy all the way..They are top quality


yeah thats true, So did you use overclockers ?
 
i have used overclockers loads and i know a lot of others that have..

if you want any firm to build your pc and are happy to pay a bit more than buying bits from random places and want the warranty build- there is nowhere better in the UK.

Thx you were very help full but i dont wanna put the parts together my self at home i rather some one do it and take warranty 😀
 


You are misunderstanding what a warranty is. When you build a computer EACH part has a warranty, typically ALOT longer than a whole computer warranty will be.
 


Yeah but when the PC has a flute i dont have to hassle right i can just ring them and say hello my PC FLUTY fix it or refund me 😛
 
actually- in the case of alienware- they would send an engineer to your house to fix if he can.. however that is not me saying he should get alienware just putting the facts out there..

And the bigger concern is that pcs parts(self build or bought built) dont break down within warranty . there normally last a bit of time
