yes, it'll run all the games (except crysis - it'll run it on high but not on very high, i think). why do you have 2 dvd writers? if you're going to get 2, you should get one writer and one regular (some like to get one dvd writer, one cd reader). but honestly, you just need the one (dvd writer) - at least as far as i know.New Alienware PC Specs-wat you think

its kinda expensive, but i understand if you don't want to build a PC. Anyway, that is a great PC, it should handle any game great and as for crysis, you can max it, but good luck with the frames. Just tink around with the settings and find a sweet spot.
Great, so long as you're okay with paying twice as much as you would if you built it yourself.
it will play prob every game on high but crysis i doubt it will run to good on that 22'' with high settings Alienware sucks they overprice everything i just built a computer for 2000$ with a 24'' monitor and watercooling quad core at 3.6ghz my rigWindows Vista Ultimate x64bitDVD-ROM AsusDVD-RW/CD-RW combo Litedrive1000w Coolermaster PSUQ6600 2.4Stock at 3.6ghzSwitftech WatercoolingCoolermaster Stacker 830 case2 500gb Seagate hardrives Raid 04Gigs of Cruical Ram running at 4-4-4-12 @ 900mhz 2.1v7800GTX KO OC ACS3 its going to be a 9800Ultra bringing my nextgen rig around 2600$24'' Samsung Syncmaster 2MS LCD monitorrazor death adder mouse Saitek keyboard12 Fans in my computer i had to buyall that for 2000$And its a next gen gaming computer when i get a 9800ULTRA whenever it may come out it will smoke everything that comes in its way right now 7800GTX is plenty to run crysis on medium with 1680x1050 native res on my 24''anyways i could build that same rig for about 1500$
Great specs, but if you want to build a computer you could probably get the parts for less than half that price.
The main thing that makes crysis laggy on very high is the post proccessing, I think if you tuned it down to medium and maybe turned down particles you could get it to run on very high, but c'mon, game looks good on just medium - high settings, and even if you didn't build that computer yourself, that thing is going to last you a LONG time. Jealous is me.

yeah but it's not like it'll be rendered totally obsolete. I am looking forward to new CPU's though.
