A PC is the sum of all of its parts. even the fan. Alienwares have horrible fans, motherboards, airflow and a lot, more. a gpu, I agree, is not worth buying by itself. but if u spen less on a single gpu, and a lot more on everything else, then you would easily get a better pc, with less money, and only s little bit more labor. If u rlly dont want to do that, then u could easily just buy a decent one at Costco, which is cheaper, and has a better performance than alienware.
