I had an Alienware 17R2 laptop for about a year and a half before purchasing this desktop. I thought my laptop was fast! This machine runs circles around it. It is incredibly fast. Boot time is few seconds due to the SSD and game play is so enjoyable due to the GTX 1080 graphics card. Its a bit pricy but well worth it! Anyone would love this PC!!

Wow, I've waited to upgrade and I'm glad I did. This rig went on sale and I grabbed it. The 1080GTX in it runs every game I have no problem and the fans don't even rev up. Inside the case, there is room to add more memory and hard drives if you want to but it has plenty of room as is. The WI FI works great and hooking audio to my amp was a snap. I have nothing bad to say about this computer. You can even change the lights on the sides and power switch.

I purchased this computer to help in re-building websites for my wife who manages 3 counties for the US Gen-web Project. She was using a older version for Dreamweaver on an XP Computer, switching to Website X5. (She now has a newer system, too!) The saving and re-compile took 2 hours. This computer cut that in HALF. I can't wait to try my video Programs on it. I do miss, not having a Blu-Ray Burner inside. Also, with a machine of the class, a cordless keyboard and mouse. This will be rectified soon. I plan on adding additional Hard Drives. There are plenty of USB ports and room for more memory. I have been enjoying the quick boot times. It is a lot faster than my previous Windows 7 system with a 6 core AMD processor. Which now resides hooked to 60" TV. I am happy with my purchase!
