its a laptop so the build it your self isnt an option, but other than the processor its a good solid pc. it should be able to play anything you throw at it on at least medium settings.

lol i guess thats what you get for skim reading (and assuming)... sorry but then you should overclock the hell out the the processor if you get it but otherwise go for it

looks good but i would buy an aftermarket cpu cooler to put an overclock of like 3.5 or higher on it, and is the thumb drive really needed cause that in it self could save you like 10 bucks

it sounds like your dad could help you to make a pc... pick out a bare bones kit and have your dad pick out the components from there... and i would try to find out what went wrong with the last two so you can prevent it this time

if you go to the Alienware home page they have link on a tool they made to make your own wallpaper with game characters, and cool back grounds and its free.

if you have 3000 dollars, then build your own you could make a godly gaming pc for that.

Death adder definatly, cheaper more comfortable, and 4000 DPI is waaayyy too sensitive. i have one and i absolutly love it

no it definatly dosent, the pc can play almost every game that has been made for pc's since like 1998, the 360 can only play games made since it was made like 2005ish..... and there are many games that only came out for pc.
