    Isn't that like tossing a Chrysler just to buy a Dodge? Since Dell is Alienware's Mothership.

    pretty much. But when you are looking for a high end video card for cad software, you are really limited. There are differences between the systems and I think it had to do more with the motherboard and bios that was in the alienware. There's a lot of funky stuff they have settings for that are pure cosmetic.

    Petes exist for those who can't afford a KW.

    You might get better results if you judge them on how they ride. :biggrin_25525:


    We've all had a truck, and a woman, that isn't a looker, but that rides real nice.

    And we've all had a head-turner that was nice to look at, but, uh, disappointing on the inside.
     
    DrtyDiesel and DirtyBob Thank this.
