Hello miners

I'm bringing this tradition from other forums, where my friends started this where you people show off your real desktop. All you need to do, is to bring up a photo of your real life desktop, upload it to Imageshack (Or whatever you like) and post it here!

Ill start with mine then, eh?

Because laptops should never be used for gaming, that's why.

Why not for gaming? Because the 'i7 processor' that they put into a top-of-the-line 'gaming' laptop is leagues behind a desktop i7 processor. And my graphics cards take up more space than most laptops do. You have more (and better) expansion and cooling options, and less wear on a desktop.

If you can't build your own, the Alienware may very well be your best bet. I don't know a ton about specific prebuilt PCs...I've built all mine for the past...almost 8 years now.

My system:
Intel i7-2600k overclocked at 4.8ghz
16gb RAM
Dual 64gb SSD in a RAID0 configuration (980 mb/s transfer rate)
Geforce GT 550ti 1gb overclocked graphics card
Cooler Master Storm Sniper case.

ZemorI need opinions..<snip>..found the alienware X51 for $700 <snip> Is it worth it, or are there any better PC's out there for around the same price?

Advice, part 1: If you can, build your own. My system cost me approximately $800, and that's WITH all the extra fun bits, like a shiny+glowy case and a liquid cooling system.
Advice, part 2: Get something that has an i5 processor, more RAM, a better graphics card, and possibly even a solid state drive. Your processor isn't going to be your bottleneck.

Alright guys... I need opinions. I have around $300 saved up, and I've been looking for a better PC to buy. I found the alienware X51 for $700, and I think I might be able to get my parents to dish in the rest. Is it worth it, or are there any better PC's out there for around the same price?

Because we're showing off here, meet my new baby. I built her in Feb.

CPU: Intel i7 2700 series (OC@4.6Ghz) [approx 89° F ]
RAM: 24GB Corsair DDR3 dual-channel 1833hz
GPU: GeForce GTX 570 (Galaxy 4xDVI/1xHDMI)
PSU: Corsair 850w Pro

HDD1: 120GB Corsair Force 3 6GB/s SSD [boot drive]
HDD2: 500GB Seagate 6GB/s [documents drive]
HDD3: Recycled Hitachi 320Gb [apps drive]
HDD4: Recycled Hitachi 320Gb [virtual machine drive]
HDD5: (portable) 500Gb WD backup drive

2x Asus 24" Monitor
Razer Tarantula & Copperhead
Wacom bamboo tablet

Some not-terrible speakers, cheap mic, cheap gamepad, HDD hotswap case mod, & various other accessories & bling

I dualboot into Ubuntu and run an Osx Lion virtual machine when I need to, but that isn't often. My machine generally runs as a fileserver for myself and my roomates, streaming music/movies/etc to everyone else. Also been know to boot up a private game server from time to time on it when we're having LAN parties, but we haven't had one in a while.
