Alienware x51 - Decent value?

[richstroller]

Hello,

I've been looking for a new computer for a while and been browsing this forum quite a lot - thanks for the helpful advice!

I'd been considering building my own, but I did that about 5 years ago and it wasn't very stable at all.

I've also been keeping an eye on Dell Outlet.

I saw this refurbished Alienware x51 last night for £777 including VAT and delivery:

Processor : Intel Core i7-3770 (3.40GHz, 8MB L3 Cache, 4C)
16 GB Memory (2X8GB) 1600 MHz DDR3 Non-ECC
256 GB Mobility Solid State Drive
Graphics: 1.5 GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660

I've got two 1tb USB 3 external HDDs already, so limited space isn't a problem, and I understand that the internal HDD bay can fit 2 SSDs.

I bought it this morning. Have I done the right thing? I can still cancel the order.

I'll mainly be using it for photoshop, possibly a few games like Diablo 2.

Any advice/opinions would be really appreciated.

Cheers,

Rich

Of course, I meant Diablo 3 not 2...Doh.
