Replying to Computer Advice?

Hey M&A,

I am looking at buying a new computer. I of-course have macs in mind but do not see them being a greatest for my price point. My mind is pretty set on an Alienware X51 due to my price range and the fact that it has key specs I would need. I have also looked into building a computer but feel Alienware is a great computer for the price.

My specs:
16gb+ memory
Quad core processor
1gb+ graphics card
2 1tb 7200rpm HDD

roughly: 1,700
My budget: 2000
