Maybe don’t buy a PC from QVC

Getting into PC gaming is often tough because whenever you ask for buying advice, everyone yells at you to build your own. Yes, you’ll save money by doing so, and it’s important to understand how to upgrade your rig later to get the most out of it, but hey — buy a PC if that’s what you want to do. But I don’t think you should buy it from QVC.

The television shopping channel has a new Dell Alienware Desktop up for sale on its website for $2,970. That’s down from the normal QVC price of $3,270. That’s a lot of money, so you can bet that the rig is one mean beast, right? No. You’d lose that bet.
