The Alienware is better when you compare the Specifications and Alienware's quality of build will be better eventhough Dell took over Alienware.



You will be overpaying for the Alienware though, by around 300-500$ the HP is better value but the Alienware is better quality and has Gaming Reputation



Both computers can play most games you throw at it, if you want value get the HP and if you want quality and the fact that you own an alienware then get the Alienware

The Alienware - Aurora Desktop has more memory, better CPU, and better graphics card (by far). Both have Windows 7 64 bit which is good. Therefore the Ailenware is the best PC of the two.



Note that building a PC from scatch might be harder for some, but you can save A LOT of money.

some say they can, yet I were utilising mac considering the fact that 1988 and performance no longer yet had an endemic. i think all pcs can get viruses, that's in undemanding words very not likely on a mac for numerous motives. a million. Unix permissions 2. lack of folk writing mac viruses. 3. extra powerful Kernel Isolation 4. complicated propagation: you would possibly want to actual deploy an contaminated software to get previous the safe practices platforms already in position. All mac viruses or rumors of mac viruses to date have in undemanding words gotten into the device with information from the person setting up an contaminated software and allowing it get admission to to the kernel with information from entering into your safe practices key. (under no circumstances provide a software this style of get admission to until eventually that's from an guaranteed dealer)

Alienware and HP are best but depending on what your going to do with your computer Alineware is by Dell and is made mainly for gaming ... HP is more for all around use ...
