Everyone I know at Alienware telling me liquid cooler is useless. I have seen my clients returning a lot of broken liquid cooler shorter after shipping pcs to them. I was pissed off to replacing it a lot. Now, I dont know if manfractors adjust it for better and improve. By the way, whats propose for having it in your pc, XBGMER?

Yes, I see your specs, but it is great specs for gaming, depend on games which require and capable with your pc. You just need upgrade mainly processor and Memory. if You feel that video card is necessary upgrade, then get the high watt power supply. thats it..

DefMatrix, Ahh really? You expect Liqiud cooler system failed like xbox 360 rodd? Whoa, I don't think Liquid cooler is useless. Believe it or not: I haven't any problem with liquid cooler so far meanwhile I play high ended tite games on PC for all day. And I love it. Plus my Corsair Hydro H50 kept CPU lowest temp from heat. I will post it with screenshot of temp, sooner.

I did resource it about Corsair Hydro H50 on internet, youtube, and even CPU magizine gave highly postive comments about Corsair Hydro H50 before bought it. I didnt see anybody complaints about their Corsair Hydro H50in their comments of post from forums or youtube. So, they were right Corsair Hydro H50 is very quality after i bought and expermient with it. I dont see any problems with it since. Guess what I didnt feeling regerts about purchased it. .

That why I refuse to buy HP, Alienware, Gateway, Compaq desktop packages. I guess Alienware's hardware, parts are so sucks. I had to read the fourms, article, and saw pictures of alienware desktop? laptop which is failure, broken, etc by owners who compliants against alienware.. alienware's liqiud cooler is very cheap and generic. then dont blame liqiud cooler as such Corsair Hydro H50, thank you...

You think alienware is better than Digital storm business? i don't think so...

take a look that:

I play hi-end games while PC running.
1) first pic was for 24 hours, 2) second was for 48 hours, 3) third pic was for three days without shutdown nor turn it off.. see the evidence that Corsair Hydro H50 keep my gaming machine coolest. I do prefer Corsair Hydro H50 over heatpipe cooler system.

Really? I do usually hook my pc gaming machine up with 42in HDTV LCD. However I had thinking about getta 24 or 25inch monitor.

One time I hooked up to 40' inches Samsung via HDMI and I noticed very slight blur while playing Team Fortress 2 but looks great and same fps rates. I did use 22 acer to my xbox360 and ps3 via hdmi and looks great and brighter than hdtv but screen resolution is little bit stretch lol!

 

[Foxrac]

I use 22" Dell monitor for 1 year and I'm very satisfied with it, no dead pixel or weird screen that what I was experience with my old HP monitor.

I tried hooked to my 32" HDTV and screen looks cut it off and not position so properly so I just fuck them.
