What's the best desktop computer money can buy? - GoFuckYourself.com

Is the Alianware Aurora ALX at about $17,000 the best PC on the market or is there another one that can beat it?

Liquid Houdini · 05-06-2006, 07:24 AM

The question is - why?

Will investing $17k in a computer net you more profits than one for $2k?

What do you do - carry it around on your shoulders whenever you visit potential clients? Take snapshots of it in your wallet to flash? Mount it on the hood of your ___________ (insert ego car model here)?

I perceive them as idiots with small penises. Also people surfing for porn are going to know what type of computer you have?

qwe · 05-06-2006, 11:56 AM

i builded pc not too long ago for like 2.5k and this thing goes through anything... any games, any apps I run, that 4400 dual core x2 cpu is always at 40-50% usage nometter what I run, IT JUST DOESNT MAX OUT lol... so my point is, anything over 5k is a waste...

SilentKnight · 05-06-2006, 12:17 PM

Cyrano · 05-06-2006, 12:21 PM

You'd have to be a complete and utter moron to spend $17,000 on a PC.

Fucksakes · 05-06-2006, 12:22 PM

did i not make enough posts about alienware being crap?

do some research about them before reading all the bullshit they post on their site to grab your interest.

And I warn you they got the worst support I've ever came across.

Fucksakes · 05-06-2006, 12:24 PM

so far this laptop spent half its life in this box, shipping to alienware and back over and over. no lie.

Buy a decent system ($3,000 - $5,000) instead. Upgrade certain components every year or two, you'll save a lot of money.

It has to be. Really.

Otherwise, someone's a fucking retard, in the literal sense; they have downs syndrome and are very handicapped and should be kept away from a computer in the first place.

What are they doing with that "desktop" ?

A "desktop" computer is a general purpose machine, used to perform basic everyday functions.

A $17,000 "desktop" is not a "desktop" but a machine built, bought and used for a highly specific purpose.

Unless I'm missing something here, which I could be. I could buy a $17,000 machine built to render video, but if I only used it to check email and surf the net without having shelled out the money for video rendering software specifically designed for that machine, I'd consider myself retarded.

What are we discussing again?
