    I had one of those Chieftec Dragon cases for a long time.

    It was HEAVY.

    Long before they were Alienware they were Saikai PCs. I still have one in storage.

    I remember when my biggest wish for a Christmas gift was getting an Alienware PC just cause the alien logo looked badass

    Ew imagine buying a ready built dell machine for personal use. Barbarians

    A whopping 256 megs of RAM! Beastly

    But 25 years from now, 64 gigs of RAM will look like 😬😬😬 too probably

    Falcon NW was the leader in my mind back then, with Alienware being a close second.

    Windows Mistake Edition! I almost forgot about that one. Love that 60GB was just massive back then. The good old days…

    This was my childhood. And learning how to overlock the cpus

    It was the dream to get one but then Dell took them over and it went downhill

    Those were some respectable sound systems. Thought I will lament that the $2899 should at least give you the SB Audigy, not Live! for the Klipsch 5.1

    Still are imo. Love them. There’s nothing I can’t max out

    Nothing like a 22inch monitor for the price of a computer nowadays hahaha

    Had this same case but green and wasn’t alienware

    i remember browsing the alienware site on my trusty Pentium 3 PC that could barely play CS 1.6 doing custom builds that I could never afford

    I love alienware in their emo phase, where their stuff looks the part of the brand “alien-ware” they now just look like npc gamer product, if I ever come across one of those old area 51 towers I’m buying one

    Those computers and those prices were as good as the windows millenium installed

    I love mine…. got it for a great price recently. First desktop I have not build myself going back to the 90’s. This time I wanted a warranty and no worries. It auto updates everything and just works.

    The case is subtle and not super RGB like most “gaming” PC’s. I also use it for work.

    Rock solid for five months now. I don’t know if it is the best anymore like it was at one time, but it’s competitive on sale.

    I also don’t care so much anymore , I’m not obsessing over it. Amazing what marriage, work, and kids will change 😉

  18. That pc is 4 years older than me but this post surely smell like good old days
