Tech Talk / Re: New Rig...part trois

My Alienware PC is slowly giving up the ghost - I have been talking for years for replacing it but the time is really now
I have built my own and bought Alienware prebuilt for the last decade or more. So I am not debating the pros and cons of a prebuilt - that decision is made for various reasons. Now the question is which company. I was planning on going with a Maingear North prebuilt but I stumbled upon a lot of negative reviews of Maingear especially with respect to their on time shipping and support.
Does anyone here have any feedback or insights on Maingear?
Other choices are Corsair One i500
and back to Alienware Aurora R16
Rough budget is $3500-$4000 plus or minus a couple of hundred dollars between these three mostly depending on what type of memory storage options I am going with or forced to take in the case of Corsair.

Last post by devoncop - Yesterday at 11:36:48 AMHappy weekend Grogs !
For my love affair with roguelikes continues with more Tales of Maj Eyal and the newly acquired Slay the Spire in the recent sale for peanuts.
Also continuing to slog my way through Exiled Kingdoms and eagerly awaiting Gus's preview/first impressions of Field of Glory Kingdoms.

Last post by nelmsm - Yesterday at 10:06:27 AMNice choice! I had heard that bit about Carole King's involvement though. You listen to enough oldies you pick up those tidbits. This weekend will see me keeping up with my PBEM games; one Case Blue in WitE2, a full campaign in Danube '85, a delaying action in Republican Bayonets on the Rhine, and some playtesting. Will try to squeeze in some Salerno '43 on my gaming table and tomorrow my local gaming club meets where I should be playing one of the COIN games and maybe something else.
