I would recommend this to a friend Never Trusting Alienware/Dell Again
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has been non-stop problems since I purchased this PC with most issues - even wide reaching and publicly acknowledged ones - leaving me without a working desktop while I had to wait for parts to become available or while they decided if the issue was their fault. In the end they always deemed it their issue and refurbished parts were used for repairs. Now in under a year since the repair their refurbished parts have failed and they are not helping since the entire PC is not under warranty now. Avoid Dell/Alienware if you can.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve owned many Alienware computers and this is the best hands down. They finally made one that is straightforward in design. I added another module (NVme) and it was simple. The rgb lighting is minimal but looks great.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendThink Twice abouth the Price. Bad NIC
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.of all things to go south, the NIC card. After cable change and network trouble shooting, it is the on board NIC itself. I check the internet and it turns out to be a known problem with killer E3100 2.5 gp ethernet. Sort of dissapointed with that considering the cost. I bypassed the Killer E3100 and just hooked up the usb 3.0 and got my gigabit speed back. the onboard NIC will sometimes work and sometimes just drops to 100 Mbp. Trust me I tried about everything from Disable-Enable, uninstall the drivers and reinstall, updates ect. This problem comes and goes hence the difficutlty of troubleshooting.

very bad
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't waste your time and money buying this type of PC. I started having problems after six months of use. I have taken it to Best Buy for repair 4 times and still have the same problem. Blue screens, crashes in games. To me this PC is overrated.

Disappointed and Inconvenienced
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved it for the first 3 month and then the graphic card went out. It was a month past the return date. It has been shipped out for repair. I use the computer for work, so this is very inconvenient, and I am very disappointed.

- Pros mentioned:Graphics, Performance
Top Tier Gaming PC
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently got the Alienware R16 with i9 and RTX 4080 and it's a game-changer. The performance is out of this world - handles all my games flawlessly. The graphics are crystal, and the i9 keeps everything running like a dream. Love the new design because it looks sleek, and definitely has that Alienware vibe. Yeah, it was pricey, but for this level of gaming power, I'd say it's worth every penny. Totally in love with this machine!
