I also recommend you to get an AMD processor, its better than Intel. I have an AMD Phenom II 1055T x6 2.97 GHZ. And its already very quick! Alienware pc's are cool but remember you can also buy you're pc in parts and buy a look a like alienware case. like a Recom Backdraf or a Aerocool Sycloon II (link: http://www.google.nl/search?tbm=isch&hl=nl&source=hp&biw=1920&bih=971&q=aerocool+syclone+ii&gbv=2&oq=aerocool+s&aq=0&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=2644l9712l0l10673l19l17l0l2l2l0l190l1919l4.11l15l0 ) (Link Recom Backdraft http://www.google.nl/search?tbm=isch&hl=nl&source=hp&biw=1920&bih=971&q=aerocool+syclone+ii&gbv=2&oq=aerocool+s&aq=0&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=2644l9712l0l10673l19l17l0l2l2l0l190l1919l4.11l15l0#hl=nl&gbv=2&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=recom+backdraft&pbx=1&oq=recom+back&aq=1S&aqi=g-S2&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=44080l45594l0l46443l10l7l0l2l2l0l234l767l1.3.1l5l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&fp=17b3e16aae483850&biw=1920&bih=971) Also a possibility is an Asus vento 3600 (link http://www.google.nl/search?tbm=isch&hl=nl&source=hp&biw=1920&bih=971&q=aerocool+syclone+ii&gbv=2&oq=aerocool+s&aq=0&aqi=g10&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=2644l9712l0l10673l19l17l0l2l2l0l190l1919l4.11l15l0#hl=nl&gbv=2&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=asus+vento+3600&pbx=1&oq=Asus+vento&aq=2S&aqi=g2g-S8&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=44378l45777l0l47735l10l8l0l1l1l0l271l1193l2.2.3l7l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&fp=17b3e16aae483850&biw=1920&bih=971 ) I hope you can do something with this.
