> 3 dayEasy to setup and use. Only thing from DELL that actually works as promised. (They acquired alienware and didnt design it inhouse).

> 3 dayGot it and gamed on it all day and night. Then, after doing the Dell/Alienware updates it immediately started freezing. I read online that uninstalling & disabling all the Dell/Alienware utilities worked for others. That seems to have worked for me. The only other problem Ive had is crackly audio. I tried everything to. Nothing worked. Theres a headphone jack in the front panel of the PC. I switched to that one & that immediately fixed that crackling audio. So, this means I still have the crackling audio problem if I were to use the ports in the back. I even tried an external audio device.

> 3 dayComputer runs and looks great. Purchased as my first desktop from Alienware, and have been a long time user of their laptops. This unit runs MW2 (2022) Squad and Ready or Not with zero issues. I personally upgraded the RAM but otherwise the system is setup very well. Other users have mentioned issues with crashing or general issues and I have not experienced any of these issues. I have been running the system for about 3 weeks now with zero issues.

Greater than one weekUpdate: will not update MSFS 2020 files. What I have to do is uninstall MSFS and reinstall it. This has happened three times. Dell computers are garbage. When I wrote review below I had only had the computer a couple of weeks. When it works it’s great but it doesn’t work great for long. DONT BUY THIS COMPUTER! This computer has been amazing right out of the box. I use it mainly for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and it is amazing. No glitches in the frame rates and it is quick to upload and download the files. Updates dont take 2 days to complete now so that is an added bonus! I have not had any reason to call tech support so cannot really talk about them. If you are a gamer and you enjoy simulation, I truly recommend this computer. There are plenty of USB Ports and I have some left over.

> 3 dayLove it so far but its odd shape makes it bigger than your average pc. Had to buy a new desk to fit it.

22-12-2024Product mainly used for simulation gaming in particular MSFS 2020 Premium Deluxe. The computer was easy to setup and it is super fast. Price was a little high but it was worth it. I highly recommend this product.

> 3 dayLet me start off that I really like this PC. Came ready to plug and play. Set-up was a breeze and updates were starting as soon as I plugged it in. I opted for the 3080 with the R9 5900. Its fast. The Alienware software allows for good control of your components from Thermal to Over clocking. Good Price when on sale. 3/17/2022 Contacted support for a 2 Amber, one White blink. The PC Would not turn on. Waiting for a resolve. 3/22/2022 Resolved as the HDD was not activating after sleep mode. Changed the program to never let the HDD go inactive.

19-12-2024I e been an Intel user for my entire PC life but couldn’t afford the bump from $3000 to $5000 for the Ryzan 9 box to be an Intel I9 box even with the higher end Nvidia RTx
