Iam planing to buy a new computer in the near future and a few questions crossed my mind and maybe you guys can help me. I have a good computer right now which is 1.3 gigs and 320 RAM and 16 MB of video RAM. Well I though I could go better and I have looked around and done my research. I will get the best Alienware on the market. Well, my friend wants to buy my computer for $750.00. My question is Is it worth it to sell it or no sell it at all? Should I get the Alienware? Iam stumped on this one.

What are the congregation of the Alienware system? Then you should decide if it is a better deal. If it is still keep your old one.
It will come in handy. :beer: ^_^

:) Hya Russian_Life! Wow an AlienWare:love: Man I always drooled over those rigs,but never had the $ca-ching$ to buy one.My new PC,well new in Jan. is similar to yours,1.6 gig,256RD RAM,64Meg GF3 200Ti It runs PU and all my other older games really well.The question I have to ask you is,is PU your main game right now,or are you into other newer games,that require a fast PC to run well,such as a flight sim?If PU is your main game,and it runs well,you might as well keep your rig.You may want to upgrade your video to a 64 Meg,like a new GF4,or how about a bigger monitor?Most ppl use 17" monitors,as far as I know(That might make an interesting poll,no?)I have a 19" and use the full screen,so PU looks pretty damn sweet.:love: You could get a GF3 or 4 with TV out and a 32" TV.:D How about a new controller?You could buy a MOMO wheel,and install it in one of those racing sled thingys,and park it in front of that big screen TV,and...^_^ Sorry,I'm having fun spending your money for ya!^_^
