I bought the Alienware Alpha at Best Buy and I'm thinking about returning it for the CybertronPC Patriot GM1293D Desktop but i want to know how better it performs to the Alienware, would i at least get 10-15 more fps on each of my games? I dont wanna go through the trouble if I'll get minimal returns on performance. The Alienware cost me around $600 after warranty/insurance and the CybertronPC is selling for around $500, the Alienware is my first gaming PC but now that ive had a taste of true gaming performance i want even more Frames for my dollars.

The Patriot is actually a much weaker computer than your Alpha. It doesn't even have a GPU! You'll get better frame rate on most games with the Alpha. For goodness' sakes, keep the Alpha!!! The Patriot has low end integrated graphics vs midrange mobile (laptop) dedicated. if you want something fairly cheap with better chops than the Alpha, go with the Acer Predator AG3-605-UR1G. It's around 700 bucks, but it'll play games a good amount better than the Alpha.

Thanks, I've decided to keep the Alpha, i had been doubting whether returning it was a good idea,due to all the people online saying how you could buy computers better than the alpha for the same price, but now ive made up my mind to keep it.
