    8GB ram + 1050… doesn't seem deserving of the Alienware badge imo

    • aussieprepper on 08/11/2017 - 17:59

      Ram now days cost more than crack lol

      Cut backs!

      You don't think its overpriced enough to be alienware?

    • HighAndDry on 08/11/2017 - 18:58
      +1

      Yeah. It's decent value for the parts, but as a "Gaming" machine, that mix of parts is just downright silly because the CPU is head and shoulders above the video card, when the video card is going to be the clear bottleneck in games.

  • aussieprepper on 08/11/2017 - 18:00

    You would think they would use a GTX1060 with this set up?

    • Solar 123 on 08/11/2017 - 18:13

      GTX 1050 is just $100 cheaper than 1060….. so not a big deal. Most importantl, it’s an Alienware!

        Most importantl, it’s an Alienware!

        Good to know. Makes it easier to avoid being ripped off.

          I mean the CPU is awesome and is way overkill to be used with a 1050Ti.

  • Max999 on 08/11/2017 - 18:10

    1359 for a 1050 ti?

    Better save the money and buy an xbone x instead and get a pc under 1k.

  • Ema000 on 08/11/2017 - 18:11

    Since this is overseas stock, and over $1000, it will incur customs tax as well.

    • Solar 123 on 08/11/2017 - 18:14

      It is sold by dell Australia, so I don’t think it will incur customs tax.

      • amarco on 08/11/2017 - 18:27

        But its being shipped from Malaysia i think …

        • Trantor on 08/11/2017 - 18:31
          +1

          but sold by dell Australia, shipped to Dell then couriered from Dell within Australia. Lenovo does this too.

        • Letrico on 08/11/2017 - 18:32
          +1

          All made to order comes from Malaysia. That is their warehouse.

        • HighAndDry on 08/11/2017 - 18:59

          Yes, but to DELL first. Then from Dell to you. There may well be customs tax but it'll be paid by Dell.

      • Ema000 on 08/11/2017 - 18:45

        OH I didn't know that, I honestly thought anything over $1000 bought from overseas was hit with a customs tax

  • malouphix on 08/11/2017 - 18:26

    This would make a half decent work computer and part-time gaming rig during lunch breaks!

  • protozeroxx on 08/11/2017 - 18:42

    Pair an i7 with a 1050ti? wtf?

    • HighAndDry on 08/11/2017 - 18:59
      +1

      Don't know who negged you. That's a terrible combo for a gaming rig and will bottleneck the hell out of the graphics performance.

      • protozeroxx on 08/11/2017 - 19:51
        +1

        I made a build recently with an i5 and a 1060 and it came out to a bit under 1200 bucks, way better than this.

        • HighAndDry on 08/11/2017 - 19:58

          Yeah and I'm not surprised in the least. Every piece of advice re gaming rigs is: Buy the best video card you can possibly afford, pick the cheapest CPU you can to not bottleneck that video card.

          An i7 with a 1050 is…. just wasteful.

  • miq on 08/11/2017 - 18:45

    I'm looking to buy my first gaming PC but get the impression that Alienware are overpriced for what they are. Am I likely to get a substantially better build/price from the local PC store?

    • smiles on 08/11/2017 - 18:50
      +1

      If you can buy parts and build, you could possibly get a better deal..

    • HighAndDry on 08/11/2017 - 19:01
      +1

      Yes. Almost certainly. Dell has a lot of their value proposition in their after-care: Warranty, Support, Trouble-shooting, etc. If you don't care for those, go to your local PC store and spec your own computer (or MSY, or MWave, etc), or better yet, buy the parts and put it together yourself.

    • protozeroxx on 08/11/2017 - 19:52
      +2

      This is a bad deal. I put together a computer the other day for less than this and it would perform way better.

      Yep, but then you can't jerk off to the incorrect belief that you'll be the envy of all your friends because you have an Alienware.

  • AMLagonda on 08/11/2017 - 18:56

    This PC is so lazy, I don't see the point for the price.

  • bargainist on 08/11/2017 - 19:27

    god damn that's a good looking case.

  • bargainhunter456 on 08/11/2017 - 19:29

    Of their current deals I wouldn't get this - the Inspirion Ryzen 5 or 7 is the better technical buy and will serve better longer term as software catches up to the processor's abilities.

    I'd never pay full retail for an Alienware. But on deals like eBay or Dell Outlet they can be attractive. Yes you can almost always build a PC in componenets for $100-200 cheaper - but typically these guys include a Windows licence, warranty and delivery and that is attractive for the price and that is always attractive IMO.

  • Changskies on 08/11/2017 - 19:37

    Dilema..

    Im thinking of buying this for my SO as she wants a basic gaming comp.

    also, i was thinking of switching out this mobo + CPU +hdd with my i7 4790k + 16gb ram + 500gb hdd.

    worth or nay?

    • HighAndDry on 08/11/2017 - 20:03
      +1

      Nay.

      Gaming relies on video card first, literally everything else is a distant second/third/etc consideration.

      A GTX1050Ti is completely underpowered in a computer (for gaming) that costs $1.3k and has an i7. Not to mention the i7 is correspondingly way overkill for gaming paired with a 1050.

      For gaming, video card first. For a budget of around $1.2k - $1.3k, you should be getting a $500-$600 video card, so at least a 1060, ideally a GTX1070. You can skimp on basically anything else, but in a gaming rig, don't skimp on the graphics card.

      • Solar 123 on 08/11/2017 - 22:04

        Since this desktop has 3 Video card slots, can I buy another 1 or even 2 GTX 1050 to enhance its Video performance? 1050 is cheap

        • pizzip on 09/11/2017 - 00:19
          +1

          Most recent games don't make good use of multiple GPU's (some don't even recognise an extra gpu). VRAM doens't double in SLI so you'll still be stuck at 4GB with two 1050ti's. You're way better off spending the same cash on a better single GPU.

        It’s not an Alienware. The brand is worth a lot

      • portard on 08/11/2017 - 22:58

        Damn, with the PREZZY code this is the absolute winner here. I just finished buying parts for my own custom PC (with ozbargain deals), similar specs, for not much cheaper than your link

  • Alitoleah on 08/11/2017 - 20:58

    Can I got tax refund if I go to oversea?

    Sigh, a 6800k system with a single-channel memory config.
