Just picked up an HP- 180-T Desktop there Flagship PC , got it with RAID-0 SATA , Intel- 3.33GHZ 6-core processor and 12-GB of 1066 MHZ RAM.
Anyhow was wondering if I should exchange it for the new Alienware-51 ALX , that has all the goods Liquid cooling , 12-GB of DDR-3 1333-MHZ RAM , And , Two 256-SSD in RAID-0.
I have the same processor in the HP And I was looking up-grading the Hard Drives to Two Fast SSD's in RAID-0 format.
Just wondering if this will fill the performance void some, As the Area-51 comes with the faster 1333-MHZ and Liquid Cooling and is slighlty over clocked for a Total price of $4950.00 Shipped with the killer Build 12-GB of DDR-3--- the Two -256 SSD in RAID-0. Anyhow I do not game at All, So this is not my concern I just enjoy pure Speed, Real Fast Boot up , opening and closing of programs with the blink of an Eye, I am just Wondering if I just upgrade to Two Fast RAID-0 SSD Drives that the HP will perform near equal to the DEll AREA-51, Or am I way off and the whole liquid cooling thing and faster 1333-MHZ RAM will All still blow my HP away even after I install some FAST SSD , Hopfully Faster SSD then Dell put in there AREA-51. After All the processors are the same exact only difference is the 1333-MHZ RAM , and slight overclock < I can Save about 1700 TO 1800 dollars by just doing the SSD RAID -0 on my HP Can ANyone provide me some insight Should I return the HP while its still under the 90 day return policy with Costco. But if its not Really a fully notable performance difference then I do not wish to waste the Money, If Id only note the difference in Gaming then this does not matter to me as I do not Game, I did purchase trhe HP-180-T Desktop with there Top of the Line Video card offered an ATI-4850 Video Card , And again it has 12-GB of DDR-3 ( 1066- MHZ ) RAM.
Because if I am going to make the switch I need to do it fast while Dell is still offering 12-Months Free No interest. Please PC Dudes please let me know your oppions is it worth the extra 1700.00 for the AREA 51- ALX
Will I note the performance difference in the Seat of my Pants, ( Keeping in mind I will have RAID-0 TWO SSD installed in the HP for a total cost of about $3200.00 for this up-graded HP Build which will wave my 2- year Warranty Oh Well. OR Would it be a Total Waste of Money and just Keep this HP And Pump it up with the TWO Fast SSD 's in RAID-0
