That is a big rez for that card, it will run it good enough. I think you will be fine with it. Though if you aren't you can upgrade the videocard. The 3rd rig is the best, but really too much for pictures, web-surfing, and light gaming.millerlight89

How hard would it be if I went with the simple dell with the basic card that came with it for $749.99 then install a 5870 my self how hard would that be and can it be done?

[QUOTE="vIGAMEIv"]Somebody tell me with the parts alienware is giving me how much would it be?MaoTheChimp

Probably sub-$1000, considering that you can get an i7 920 paired with a 5870 for around $1100-$1200.

[QUOTE="vIGAMEIv"]Im glad everyone suggest ibuypower and building my own .O dont want to come off as a jerk because I do appreciate the advice but ipower have some pretty bad reviews along with customer service.Also I have a $1500.00 credit with dell that has no financing for 12 months that really helps.I can see if those cards are a option on the alienware.Do I need dual cards or is one fine enough?neatfeatguy
