Topic: ordered Marauder lvl 3 Posted: 03 Jul 2012 at 2:50pm |
|
I was looking for a new gaming desktop coming from an alienware m11x.. I was considering the alienware x51 but after reading mixed reviews on the x51 I decided to go somewhere else not to mention Dell's horrible customer support.. the marauder level 3 looks like exactly what I was looking for and for a good price.. will post review once I receive it.. if anyone else has the Marauder could you tell me what u think of it so far.. thanks :)

You made the right choice. In addition to an xm15, I also own an x51, and while it is a decent computer, it is overpriced for the specs, and the customer support is terrible.

Hi xZealotx11,
Welcome to the forum.
I am a little confused about your Vanguard model. I am not familiar with it. Is that a DS computer?

Wow totally my bad I was thinking of something else.. it's called the Marauder level 3.. under special ops desktops.. fixed post.. from what I can tell DS has an amazing reputation especially compared to Dell.. also I ordered it yesterday and went all the way to Stage 5 on the same day.. so hopefully I get it by next week

Not too far off. The Marauder is the Corsair Vengeance C70. Congrats on your new DS computer.

I'd say no more than 170-175 days. POS could be right too.

xZealotx11, no problem. At first I thought you had bought an AW computer and wanted to tell us about it.

I doubt that it will be much more than two weeks until you get it. Shipping to PA only took four or five business days, and you can probably assume the same to Tennessee.
