> 3 dayLove this computer. Upgraded from a home built I put together over 5 years ago. Video from 1060GTX to a 3080RTX so...woohoo! Play Black Desert Online in remastered mode and it looks like a picture. Fan makes some noise as others have said, but I consider it minimal, its really not bad. Looks awesome, performs even better! Got a good deal on Prime Days, so Ive had it for around a month, (saved close to $600). Runs fine, temps midrange so liquid cooling doing its job. Again, its not all that loud. I use headphones for the game and I cant even hear it even though Im sitting right next to it. Would definitely recommend. (Ryzen 5900x, 32mb ddr4, 1tb ssd plus a 2tb hdd) I think this should last me awhile.

> 3 dayLove this pc. Only real problem I had was when I plugged pc in, it sounded like a jet engine! I thought I had a bad fan or power supply. Long story short, I had to open it up and discovered a cord was touching graphics card fan. Once I moved it, it was quiet as a church mouse. One other issue is the alienware command center. It was supposed to update all drivers. I Prichard pc in May updated, and noticed the video card driver was from March. How tho?? Otherwise great pc. These issues werent enough to deduct star. Highly recommend

> 3 dayReceived computer, set it up and ran it for 24 hours, over night I am guessing it performed windows updates or something but it was stuck at black screen. Contacted dell who, trouble shoot issue and said mobo was bad. They refused to replace entire thing they wanted to send out a 3rd party tech who may or may not be competent enough to basically replace the heart of the computer, then put everything back properly including CPU and liquid cooling.... No thanks. I called Amazon and they had replacement sent out immediately. Otherwise great system for the price.

> 3 dayThis thing rocks. Plays all the heavy hitters on ultra settings with zero problems. Cyberpunk? Easy. Total War: Warhammer 3? Beautiful. Fast, quite and lovely. You wont regret it. Also note that I have not had any problems with blue screens or glitches and shut downs like some others have had. Also have not had to contact support so I cant comment on that either.

> 3 dayIf this has a monthly plan for you I say go for it. If its on a partial sale go for it. If you can spare the money go for it. I say this because I stream with this beast and play on it as well. Never had an issue not even when I got it. Runs great however. I will say this now. The fans suck. Theyre cheap and my tower gets really hot. Ive had to replace them with stronger fans to avoid overheating. But other then that Ive fallen in love with this pre-built. Genuine review. No paid actor. I use this thing alot. Sometimes for hours in a day and runs perfectly fine. Would of put a 5 star but those fans for this expensive of hardware is a tad slacking for my liking but other then that worth the money.

> 3 dayIve had issues with this machine in terms of performance ever since I got it. Not only was the memory severely underclocked by default, I constantly get performance lag when I alt+tab between a game and a window. What is worse is that it will randomly crash my computer. I will click into a game window and everything freezes then shows red, blue, and green pixels leading to a blue screen crash. After contacting Dell Support the last time, the issue has only gotten worse. Maybe I just got bad parts but I cannot recommend buying this PC.

> 3 dayI purchased a used version from Amazon as Acceptable. It runs fine, but came with some nice Chinese Malware on it. Always run updated Defender in safe mode and wouldnt hurt to run Malwarebytes, but most importantly, always reinstall Windows yourself after getting pre-built systems.

06-06-2025This is my second Alienware product; my previous was a gaming laptop back in 2010ish. That laptop performed well but has some glaring flaws, such as the video cutting out from a bad hinge. I was hoping maybe Alienware had gotten better over a decade, but unfortunately its the same story all over again, and I am returning it. In general, this PC is good and runs well. While I really dislike branding, I will say the case design is rad. I love the toolless design, tho you do need a screw driver to open the case so thats a bit of a fib, but the interior is clean and easy to access. I didnt really stress test this much. I did play a heavy Skyrim VR modpack, and it performed like hot garbage, but that modpack is notoriously poorly optimized, so I dont know if I can blame the PC for that. That being said, even while playing relatively simple games like WoW or just watching YouTube, I got multiple BSODs, which is just bizarre. However the real reason Im returning it is because the wired network adapter is faulty. Online gaming while streaming will lead to constant disconnects which can only be fixed by resetting the adapter, and sometimes just gaming or YouTube by itself will crash the adapter. I spent multiple weeks trying to fix it, troubleshooting with my roommate, who is not having this problem, tried to contact Dell who refused to help, etc. I finally hit my breaking point when it happened during a progression night, and I had to miss half the gaming session, which probably set us back a week. This PC is overpriced. I was okay with that because I have little free time or patience, I just wanted something that worked, and was willing to pay for it. But somehow even something as simple as a wired connection was too much to ask of Alienware. Im very frustrated that I wasted weeks on trying to get this overpriced brick to do what my 7 year old Studio XPS did flawlessly. Thats twice Ive been burned, I will never purchase an Alienware again. 1 star overall, 2 star for the neat case design.

> 3 dayBought this in July of 2022 ... and now its October and Ive reformatted this computer 2 times and even installed Windows 10 on it ... Why you ask? Because - about a month ago, there just seems to be one glitch after another. Whether its a game freezing up mid-frame for a few seconds, or a YouTube clip stuttering while streaming or simply doing remedial tasks and the processor just maxes out for no reason causing a resource freeze up for the system ... just seems to be one thing after another. Im starting to think that AMD is nothing like an Intel processor. This is my first and quite possibly my last purchase of anything AMD related because its just not performing like I had hoped. Be WARNED - this is probably not the computer you should buy, no matter how good the deal seems.
