Should i get an aienware or lenovo?

The alienware is priced at 1799 and includes a r9m290x 500gb 16 ram but the lenovo y70 70 is priced at 1199 which includes a gtx 860m 1tb and 16 ram so is the better gpu and memory and the alienware logo worth the extra 600.Games il be playing are mostly stragety like civ 5 beyond earth command and conquer etc and some rpg games dragon age skyrim etc

The specs on the r9m 290x are *slightly* better than the 860m, but I don't know if it's $600 better. Probably not.

I'm an Alienware owner, a very satisfied one, but I almost never recommend the "entry level" Alienware models.

hope that helps.
