    Alienware is super expensive. $1,000 and up. I hope you're prepared to spend that much money on a new PC. If you think you're getting an alienware PC for anything under $500 not likely.

    With that right there, you'll be fine as long as you get as much memory as you can. Otherwise, the buffering to your hard drive will become a weak link concerning speed. Just be sure to not get more memory than the motherboard can hold (easy to do if it's not confirmed). Sounds like you're on your way to a nice setup!
