  1. Thanks for the Alienware recommendation. I just purchased a new X51 system through the alienware website and wanted to let you know they have a good deal on at the moment. It's $200 off then another $100 coupon code discount making my purchase $1538 before taxes. I upgraded the one they show for $1299 and it has an i7 processor with hyper-threading. I upgraded the hard drive, and then got the pro version of windows 10 and the premium support. I'm looking forward to seeing how it performs compared to the 12 year old dell running XPS that I am currently using. Oh, and now I will be able to actually run the latest version of Chief Architect. I just got an Alienware X51 with: Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-6700 (8MB Cache, up to 4.0GHz with Turbo Boost Technology) Includes Hyper-Threading, Memory: 16GB Dual Channel DDR4 at 2133MHz, Video Card: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 960 with 2GB GDDR5, Hard Drive: 256GB PCIe SSD (Boot) + 2TB (64MB Cache) 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s, Operating system: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit English, Optical Drive: Slot-Loading Dual Layer DVD Burner (9.5mm), Wireless: Intel® 3165 1x1 802.11ac Wi-Fi Wireless LAN and Bluetooth, Support: 1 Year Premium Support This i7 processor has hyper-threading which was explained like this: Hyper-Threading Technology is a form of simultaneous multi-threading technology introduced by Intel. Architecturally, a processor with Hyper-Threading Technology consists of two logical processors per core, each of which has its own processor architectural state."
