Hello, I am new to these forums and I was wondering if I could have some help designing an excellent video gaming desktop for 2000 - 3000 dollars. I don't want to have to build one by myself because I am not that experienced. I was thinking about the xps 720, but I have heard mixed reviews about it and the hc2 is out of my reach, starts at around 6000 dollars. I would hope to have dx10, hopefully a quad core so that it won't be outdated for a couple years. If anyone could point me to a good computer or even customize one for me that would be great. Thanks!

I am using an alienware now and it has had so many problems in the past. I also think that they are a bit overpriced
