I will say their laptops are quite good for their prices where as their desktops are pretty terrible. At MSRP, their laptops are pretty terrible but you never buy Dell/Alienware at MSRP. They have weekly sales and on top, you can typically stack coupons. Like the Alienware laptop I got for my sister where I was able to get a big enough discount where she got a 3070 laptop for the price of 3060 laptops from Asus as such. While technically it doesn't perform as well as normal 3070s, it performs a lot better than 3060s. And their XPS laptops are class leading in the ultrabook segment with their XPS 17 having very slim bezels and even coming with a Nvidia xx60 GPU which has been unheard of for a long time in that category.

But their desktops are kinda where things become jank. Like they are filled with so much nonsense and while the prices of their desktops can sometimes be had for cheaper than a lot of competitors at the low-mid ranged, it does feel like you are making a deal with the devil. And at the top end, they are absolute trash.

When i said they made "this kind of BS", I was talking mostly about their propietary designs that, usually, don't perform better and force you to remain with them for any upgrade or repair.

The last example of that was the RAM module for their laptops that you posted some days ago.

Yea that's true. It's especially annoying cause their sales are quite good but man, their proprietary nonsense is crazy.
