Maybe return it for one of EVGA's ITX 960's or a Sapphire ITX 380?

EVGA I can't find it at local here. Sapphire ITX 380 seem look like R7 370 nitro doesn't fit.

ITX 380's a bit smaller than a Nitro 370, though.

O.o No WAY!  I thought from the pictures this was some random crappy prebuilt with a 200W fire hazard psu and an obsolete cpu... I mean, that is what it looks like.

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

50% of the price for an alienware computer is still overpriced, but whats done is done

For those that are willing to pay for them they are excellent. Not even that much more than an Eurocom/Clevo equivalent and you get RGB lighting.

I guess "excellent" to you means having a ton of quality control issues and computers that break after a year...

 

RGB lighting is a gimmick which kids buy into because "it looks cool"

thats pretty much how alienware markets all their overpriced crap to the children

same strategy that razer uses

Not a big fan of RGB Lighting myself, some people like it though and it can be considered a positive. Would you say Corsair "markets overpriced crap"?
