KungFu Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 Only way I've found to get one in 20 or so days is to buy a whole new rig from a high end shop. Seems they get an allotment. Yes I looked at getting the cheapest rig with a 3090 and then transferring it to my current rig (3090 was a $1500 upgrade). It was cheaper than ebay for sure but methinks I'll wait lmao Win 11 Professional, I9-14700K, 64GB DDR5, 4090, 2x 980 PRO PCIe 4.0 NVMe , 2x VKB Gunfighter mk III, MCG Ultimate, SCG, Orion 2 Throttle, Thrustmaster TPR pedals, Pimax Crystal

Burt Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 I just pulled the plug on the Alienware R11 with the Rtx2090 ... well there version of it and 64gb / 3400mhz of xfury. They through in the best 4 year warranty they had $4800ish the reason behind this purchase is I’m not a pc savvy builder kinda guy. My R9 with the 2080 super is just not running my G2 is good as I need it too. I’ve had a great experience with Alienware. with all the updated stuff coming from Eagle Dynamics in the next couple of months/years why not.

Eaglewings Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 I have been looking at the R10 with the ryzen 5600x and a 6800xt for a while now. It priced at $1789ish with a few compromise in ram and ssd size. For these I can swap the ones in my present rig.I just do not have any experience with a pre built pc. Difficult for me to know if with case they use, one can upgrade gpu in future. Some of these AIB made gpus are very huge and fitting them in could be problematic should choose to upgrade in future.A tough one to either wait till things get a bit normal and get a gpu or get one of these pre-built pc on sale out there.

Burt Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) If you go with Alienware I can assure you that it’s a great rig for DCS. It’s alittle loud when running it at high performance mode but others are upgrading the fans for that issue. I have not had any heating issues what so ever with my R9 and runs DCS and probably any other game with no probs... really. With Alienware machines you definitely have to run msi afterburner for the gpu because they don’t give you that option in there command center. Im hoping this helps my G2 out... it better haha! If you do make sure to negotiate with the sales rep. They may not come down in the price for their high in machine but they will add stuff like programs, Ram and warranty. He added the best warranty and offered me 128gb of 3200mhz of Ram but I went with 64gb of 3400mhz and windows pro which I will not use the full potential of it. Anywho ! Alienware is a high price rig but it’s a great gaming machine. Also it’s the only way to get a 3090 right now. One more they manufacture they own gpu cards which are smaller then others. I think if you upgrade the gpu it will have to come from Dell... I think. take care Edited March 6, 2021 by Burt 1 ALIENWARE R11 - I9 10900KF @ 5.1 GHz - M.2 NVMe 2TB - RTX3090 - XFURY 64GB -3400 MHz RAM Monitor AW3420DW @ 120Hz - Virpil CM3 Throttle - TM TPR Rudder pedals - Virpil CM2 w/TM Hornet Stick Center - Monstertech Deck Mounts RealSimulator FSSB-R3 Lightning Base w/ F16SRGRH SideStick - VR user / Varjo Aero - Big Thx to mbucchia Start Date April 2020
