hey bro
listen
the rig that jaskanwar mentioned is a good one
go for that if u are more on intel side

otherwise go for the AMD one that rahul mentioned(if u can then plz change the mobo to 790gx)

and regarding ur ALIENWARE FEVER
i know they looks super cool
but they cost a lot more than what they deserve
believe me!!!


rest of all depends upon you
