Hi all
Relatively new to the world of OC. Have been looking for a rig that will allow me to have a bit more of a tinker and will offer me great performance. I'm CLEARLY not some kind of hardcore overclocker, I simply like to push my machine a little......
Rig will mostly be used for gaming and watching Hi-def movies. I also want to be able to work on uni assignments while watching movies.
Have looked at a few options recently then this deal came up on a daily deal site:
http://www.firstin.co.nz/products/alienware-aurora-r3-core-i7-desktop-pc-5873/
Please comment on performance vs PRICE of this machine, please keep in mind this is in NEW ZEALAND, and price is in NZD.
If anyone (especially kiwis) could suggest a better build for the same money I would be grateful for your time.
Clearly there are a few trade-offs here but it seems like the same machine built from scratch here would cost $3k PLUS......
Price is a BIG factor for me.
Thanks all
