I need advice on a gaming computer i want to build

[vivini]

Hi guys. Currently i am interested in buying an alien ware x51 link is here.

http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-x51/pd?oc=dpcwxn6&model_id=alienware-x51#RatingsAndReviews

Now i have built systems in the past however i have been out of the computer game for some years now, Example the last pc i built had 3 gigs of ram and was an AMD dual core 5000+ and at that time it was at the top. I really don’t know what’s out there now, I now see computers with a standard amount of 8gigs lol.


Well anyways the price on the Alien ware is about 1200$, I really don’t care about the price as long as its around that.

I want a good gaming computer where i can turn up video resolution and not have to worry about video lag or cpu lag Or any over heating problems. I want a speedy computer that can give me what i want visualy and speed wise from any game.

I was hoping someone could put something together for me so I can just buy off Newegg and assemble it lol.

The total for this build comes to $1319.90 and this will meet the requirements of the gaming computer that you have specified in you post. The video card will run any game at the top settings and with an SSD for the OS the overall seed of the computer will be faster than with a conventional HDD.
There was information that you didn't supply in your post and that is whether or not you needed an OS , Monitor , keyboard and mouse , speakers. If all of those are needed and have to be included in the budget amount then the build needs to be reworked and less expensive , lower quality parts selected.
