You can build an alienware computer for a fraction of the price you shitcock. I know because ive done it twice. That's what PCs are, a bunch of branded components

Honestly, nothing nerdy about building a computer. It saves money and feels rewarding

Is there a site that compares the cost of an Alienware computer with the cost of each individual parts?
Been wanting to see if building it is cheaper than buying it.
But my brother got this on eBay so clearly it's probably already disqualified.

Most certainty cheaper if you use Linux for O/S.

Is that you Cathy? Didnt mean to call you a shitcock. No site but what I did was to build a computer within my budget for £800 then after I looked at alienware and saw one with the same spec for £1200. When I built my latest last year in June I spent £1100 a d can everything on max with no issue and there is no noise, just a swet hum.
