Why 3 optical drives? You can burn CDR/W with the Sony.

And are those 'Serial-ATA interface' hard disks?

Chunk that POS Proccesor and get a AMD.... AMD and ATI work well together... Dont jus buy stuff kause its top of the line or has big numbers in it "3ghz"... My computer smokes those with the Pent4's and ATI/nvidia, specially nVidia cards... If i was you id go with some kinda Athlon XP, and jump off the Trendwagon for a change, AMD Athlon XP 2800+ or 3000+ with ATI 9800, try to bump ram to 1024DDR, and you will have a tight ass computer, But thas jus my opinion cause i own a AMD/ATI combo, and I wouldnt trade it for ANYTHING.But im mainly a gamer, and some multitasking so, it really depends on what you want it for but my PC gets up into around 15,000 on 3dmark and its all stock nothing is overclocked..

Sty, please know what you are talking about first, before you put something down.

The 4x agp, is by no means an "alienware" standard. In fact, its merely the card and and motherboard that is your alienware. In almost all alienware machines right now, they all run at 8x agp...

So alienware isnt bad, because yours runs at 4x, and not 8x, in fact, prolly 90% of the pcs out there, run at 4x or less, cuz 8x is fairly new, but now its the standard...

The predator case is the new cases Alienware is shipping their pcs in... and soon you will be able to buy the case seperately if you want, and piece in your own hardware.

See the alienware website to check out those cases...
