I know that i said that im not going with a dell if i buy it from newegg thats fine as if something goes wrong i can deal with newegg about replacements instead of dell.

I wanted an alienware but wasnt going to really pay after consideration for a scratch and dent cause what if i got a really trashed unit.

I need to buy today so I really need someone to jump in and give me a couple suggestions as to which unit will offer the most upgrade paths be the most reliable and work for gaming for a while.
