Alienware earned its name by creating fancy cases that made gamers weak in the knees, they offered bleeding edge tech to stuff into those cases.  The cases finally got a remodel and they look great.  Unfortunately under the hood they are just Dell computers that are wired neatly.  If you want your dream machine to have 3 video cards, 6 hard drives, a sound card and a gamer LAN card you can Asus and several other companies have been making mother boards that can do all that for a few years now.  Alienware computers use motherboards that only have 2 PCIe slots and can only handle 4 hard drives, so you can have a video card and sound card or a video card and a Gamer LAN card or 2 video cards. I needed to upgrade my Alienware SLI system (it was 3 years old) I looked at buying another Alienware computer, but they just weren't offering anything that could do what I wanted.  I had to go down to my local computer store, buy a 2 year old motherboard that fit perfectly in my alienware case, but is far more upgradeable & powerful then anything Alienware is offering.  PLEASE DELL GIVE ALIENWARE IT'S SOUL BACK.  oh and what is with the mice and keyboards offered with "top of the line" gamer machines, why the alienware branded items and no high end industry leading stuff?  I want to recommend Alienware to my friends who want to replace there aging systems, please look into building high end machines with things that are useful Microsoft does not make a PC operating system that can use 12 gigs of RAM
