Along with other customization's, this is what I'm aiming for.  What do you think?  Should I see to another alternative, whether it is about internals or just simply a different cheaper, better computer; let me know.  I'll be using it for writing, schoolwork, and gaming.

Price is around $1,000 to 1,600

I have a Dell PC, it's pretty solid and reliable.

I can play most modern games, too.

Do tell about this other side of Dell I've never heard of.  That input was merely a crude opinion that should've been defended more precisely.

I would buy it if the 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 was 1337MHz instead of 1333 so no

don't buy it

Although dell/alienware models are overpriced they're still okay if you just want a prebuilt gaming/etc. computer.
