Can't tell if troll or not. Obviously you are lying, as I have no idea how you can buy 3 CPU's and monitors for $153. Unless you have a server motherboard or something, you aren't going to be getting 3 CPU's in there. Plus a motherboard like that would cost more than $100. I'm pretty sure you must be a troll.

I have 137. To _tay, it's really not all that difficult to get such a high score, I doubt this is edited.

Pretty sure the built in recorder is just nVidia ShadowPlay. Correct me if I am wrong.

It's still well below his budget, does it matter?

You do not run BF3 on Medium with good FPS on an Intel HD 4000 iGPU.

BF4 really doesn't need 3GB's of VRAM, it runs perfect on my 2GB 760. You will be able to play all the games you stated. I would recommend a z87 chipset Mobo, just for future upgrades. If you get a good Mobo you don't need to worry about upgrades as much. I also would recommend more PSU wattage, I have a 760 which is pretty much the same as r9 270x, and I use a 600w PSU. I doubt your PSU will explode but its a good idea, once again for upgrades. Just wondering, is that RAM just one stick? If it is I would recommend 2x4GB not 1x8GB.

Why are you asking about RAM...

Are you one of those people who think RAM is the only thing that matters?

Anyway I have a custom built:

i5 4670k @ stock speeds.
Gigabyte GTX 760
600w PSU CoolerMaster (Bad PSU brand, I know, but it hasn't blown up yet)
8 GB of RAM
Windows 8.1
Enermax Ostrog GT

Needless to say it maxes Minecraft easily. I can also get constant 60 on Extreme Render Distance. Should get more but Extreme lags like hell a lot. I've gotten like 7000 FPS before but that was with all on low and standing still in single player flatland

Graphics on CoD Ghosts are absolutely horrible. Nobody can even argue with that, textures are ugly, everything looks so bland and flat. I've only seen reviews from TotalBiscuit and Frankie1080p but gunplay and weapons are pretty much the same. Never understood why they have such stupid weapon names like the HoneyBadger, Striker, etc.

The new maps at least took out that 3 lane system they've been using for years. Every single map used this, and it made it boring as hell to play.

Destruction is bad (obviously) even though that guy who looks like a hamster (forgot the name) said they wanted cinematic destruction.

Campaign is probably good, they usually are with Ghosts.

Not gonna buy the game until huge Steam Sale (which will probably be Christmas).

TC- Get more cores, that GPU sucks (no offense) and I doubt that you will be playing well at all with that PC.

@ whoever said PC's can only run 60 FPS on screen, it depends on your monitor if you have a 120 hz monitor it will show up to 120 FPS

No. CPU is not very good, and neither is GPU. CPU is only dual core, which is never recommended nowadays. Also, what GPU is it exactly?

If you want nVidia good price/performance card is 760. I have it and it runs BF4 on High great. Haven't tried on ultra, don't know what it would be like on that. AMD option probably R9 280x. Look to above post for good builds.

Edit: Above builds are good except for PSU on last two. For second to last I think 600 for last 800.

Prebuilt laptop. Yikes. Do you really need a laptop? Are you really a very mobile gamer? I recommend building yourself a desktop.

If this was actually a desktop build, your GPU is a mobile one, so that won't work

You can get cheaper RAM if you look around. As others said, bumping up HDD size and PSU wattage is a good idea also.

Try to find out the rest of your PC specs first. It should be easy to find the processor, and you need to also find out your Power Supply so we know if you should upgrade that as well. If everything else is fine I would go with the processor RedFinder mentioned.

GPU is bottlenecking a little. Why don't you spend less money on the CPU and more on GPU, it would overall help a lot.

I got 500+ FPS in Minecraft, before a few weeks ago when it suddenly began stuttering and I was only getting 150 at Average settings. At first I thought I was running off of iGPU or something, but my BF3 performance was the same as always. Don't tell me to "Turn off V-Sync" because obviously I have turned it off. Just a thought that Minecraft might be causing performance issues for people at random.

sk8er92749I really hate how so many people hate Alienware i wonder when they will figure out gaming laptops are always more then desktops -_-

Maybe they hate on Alienware because you can get better laptops for the same price or cheaper that won't heat up enough to cook an omelette.

My Alienware does not get hot at all even when playing games like BattleField 3 -_-

Fine, your laptop doesn't overheat. Countless other peoples do.

OP: As others have said this is a stupid computer to buy for gaming. Sure it'll run the games, but you can easily get a MUCH better PC for the same price. I have a 4670k/GTX760 build that costs less and will run much better.
