That age old clique of "You get what you pay for" comes to mind!
I custom build. Using my resources, I priced an identical custom build, minus the Alienware case, to last Falls top dog. You can spend over 3K and get the huge support they give. Or you can spend $2500 and custom build the exact system by part identification.
Alienware would be my choice if I was to actually buy a PC. Their support, and personal assitance with CS is unmatched. Plus they do a complete custom OS and driver install, then due to fine tweaking, making it a true custom order. It's their final stage that allows them to outperform the others.
The new Nvidia chips matched to AMD MB, with newer AMD CPUs can run with P4s. However, in about 90 some odd days, AMD will release their new chip, and will take the throne back for a while. Then evolution goes back. Intel will resurface.
