What's the point really, R9 270X is exactly same power class as GTX 660 and GTX 760 is only small upgrade compared to GTX 660.

yes but can you fit them into the pc

Should fit yeah, the case is designed to take a full size, full length GPU. These guys managed to get a GTX 680 into one...

I agree with Rumplecrutchskin though - why bother?

EDIT: remember as well that you are severely limited by the power supply - 330W is not much at all and it's an external unit, so you couldn't even swap in a relatively tiny SFX form factor power supply (like the one used in the Valve Steam Machine)

well is this pc good for starting pc gaming

senseidongen 2014 年 1 月 21 日上午 5:20

Yeah with the GTX 660 it's certainly a very capable gaming machine at 1080p resolution, plus it is in a very small, console sized form factor, which I personally love and wish there were empty cases available for purchase of the same size that can fit a proper GPU in. However, if you're willing to tolerate a normal sized PC case, you could build the same for significantly cheaper, or spec out a custom pre-built one online for slightly cheaper

EDIT: I wouldn't buy the ebay one - you can get one brand new from Dell themselves for $1,050. Also consider something like the ibuypower revolt if you want a similarly sized, small form factor gaming PC, though it only works out slightly cheaper than the alienware from my cursory glance at the customise page
EDIT EDIT: My bad, I see the one you linked to has an i7, not an i5... not that you really need an i7, so I'd still save the $50 and sacrifice the i7 to get a brand new machine

well how bout this costom one http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/view/Fusion-650-gaming-pc/?gclid=CLKO15zPj7wCFQsCwwod1HYALw would this be better than the ailienware and run dayz standalone on ultra or high

senseidongen 2014 年 1 月 21 日上午 7:57

It would have a worse CPU (but perfectly fine for gaming, which is much more GPU intensive), but can be specced with an equal/better GPU. PC specialist are pretty good so have a play with all their configurators - you'll definitely be able to configurate something for cheaper than the Alienware (though you do miss out of the sweet small form case).

Out of curiosity, are you in the UK or USA?

RealVoids 2014 年 1 月 21 日上午 7:58

yeah

i mean uk

so what gpu should i use

I'd say (assuming you're gaming on a single monitor at 1920 x 1080 resolution, which most people do) go for an R9 270X - it slightly out performs the GTX 660 in most games and costs £9 more. Quick tip on the PC specialist configurator, go for Hyper-X memory - the 8GB is 2x4GB which is preferable to 1x8GB (unless you plan to upgrade to 16GB immediately) as it can work in dual channel mode and give you double the bandwidth. Plus it's £2 cheaper than the 1 x 8GB standard RAM.
