Hi,
I am currently interested in purchasing a new gaming computer but I have the problem that I don't know nearly enough to make a proper purchase and was wondering if you all could help.
I would be willing to consider building a computer myself depending on how much money I could save versus prebuilt systems. I just have no idea how to do it because I have never done it before and don't have enough technical experience.
The only really requirement is that I don't want a large tower, the smaller the better, as my current XPS is to cumbersome and hard to move around. I would be willing to go up to $2500 but would appreciate input on a range of options. I have been considering the Alienware X51 or the Falcon Fragbox. The main reason is the small frame factor. I would appreciate any opinions on these two computers and how they compare to what you would recommend building.
My father's person who does his computers put together this setup when asked for a gaming computer build and he gave me this for about $2400. I have no idea if it is good could someone give me an idea?
