Very smooth graphics, windows boots almost instantly. The tower isn't overly big.

i bought it for my kid and she loves it . everything is instant , no problems setting it up and the games look great . she was happy i talked her out of another laptop for some real computing power . i was so impressed i had to order an area 51 for myself but 4 of these would still be cheaper than the 51 . For the price this is a very nice and stable system . this was my first dell in 12 years and they have me back as a loyal customer .

I read some reviews about alienware and how they are over priced and they are a little higher. I have been impressed so far with this pc, it plays all the games i have plus a couple i have purchased. Ihavent had it get warm on me and the fans are really quiet. I got it on sale for 300 off i believe and so i figured that would be easier then trying to build a pc and learn that much. I did put an extra hd in it and i was surprised how there werent any power plugs that would plug in so i hade to get an adapter to get all three hds plugged in and working.

Start up was easy and quick. Just had to get used to the Dell format. Did have a problem, specs stated two hard drives a SSD and HDD but the SSD only showed up and since it was a new machine I didn't want to open it up to check. Took it back to Best Buy and noticed it back on the shelf as an open box buy.

I went in looking at desktops and I was looking at this desktop and one other the Asus RoG Strix (GD30CIDS72GTX10). I really wasn't thinking of getting an Alienware due to Dell buying them out. I had some older models when Dell wasn't a part of them and enjoyed them.
Anyways, this computer runs everything I need and more! I also teamed it up with the Alienware Monitor with G-Sync and I can tell you this... I wont need to upgrade for a very long time. My frame rates are off the chart and I can run everything ultra. I mostly play Overwatch, Wow, and Playeruknowns Battlegrounds. After getting this computer and the Monitor (AW2518H) I could see a dramatic difference.

This is by far the most responsive computer I have ever used. The SSD is really quick and makes using this PC a joy. The graphics are amazing too. The difference between the old PC and this one in video quality has become quickly apparent. I look forward to using this PC for a long time.

The Alienware has a great graphics card which allows me to do work I previously could only do in the office. My new tower and external hard drive allowed me to simply plug in my old computers hard drive and access all my old computers information without taking up space on my new computer. Awesome combination! Super happy with it!

I bought this rig as a replacement for a dated Dell tower unit. I like to tinker with my rigs, so I quickly popped the case and was swapping drives, etc. The layout of the Aurora's components is 1st class and access is better than I expected. Startup and shutdown are FAST with the SSD and the system seems to be taking everything I am throwing at it in stride (so far).
I have not taken a crack at anything VR-related yet, however the specs indicate it should be able to handle requirements for existing VR Apps.

Alienware never seems to disappoint. Purchased as more of a graphics system than gaming and it far exceeds any expectations I had!
