Question Will this work?

So I'm looking into buying a new computer and I threw these two together online, but I want to double-check that they will run Hellgate: London (or other games of that graphic needs) before I buy it (if this is the wrong place for this post I apologize). Also, any input on which is better would be great. Thanks in advance.

Re: Will this work?

The alienware has better hardware, but you'll pay out the butt for it. Have a custom builder assemble it for you.
