Oh yes, they're DEFINITELY overclocked. They push the stock P4s to 4GHz and the memory/core clocks to insane levels.

Yeah, real pity the company closed down because of low business.

I have no personal experience with Alienware, but I used to hear a lot of complaints against them about unreliable hardware and poor after-sales service. Maybe it's no wonder that they had to close down.
They might have started out with their sights set high, intending to produce the Ferraris of gaming computers, and ended up making Matiz'es.

LOL, no, Alienware hasn't closed down and they probably never will. Its Liebermann Inc., the makers of the MachL that had to close down. But they're slowly trying to make a comeback. The last time I checked they were begging for sponsors literally, and they got one in RedRuth Ventures. Hope they make it at least this time around. But you can never say Alienware systems are unstable, they're pretty much the best around, and they were the ones that actually pushed Nvidia and ATi to SLI and AMR in the first place. They still make the best gaming systems in the world, and they're also the most stable systems, with everything being a custom-job, from the cooling kit to the performance tweaks.

Oops ! Ok, OK, I didn't check whether Alienware had actually closed down  . But if you spend some time in newsgroups, you will hear plenty of people ranting and raving against Alienware. People who say that buying an Alienware product was the biggest mistake of their life. People who say that their AW computer died in a few months and they could not get proper service after trying a dozen times. AW techs could not solve their problem. They sent the wrong hardware. And so on and on.
These are not just a few exceptions - every manufacturer has some dissatisfied customers. But there are too many to ignore.

Alienware is a killer PC company which sells high perfomance machines especially for gaming purposes.They uses liquid or wapour cooling techniques for cooling.They have multiCPU models of PC with dual Intel Xeon CPU nd 2 6800 Ultra GPU SLI for mindblowing perfomance. BUt there products are beyond our budgets ie starts somewhere b/w 200000 nd 1000000 RS/ (actually in $)
