It was the CPU I think, but because it was out of warranty I did't actually get it checked out. I was getting emailed constantly from some guy in India offering to extend the warranty, it sounded like you could negotiate on that even after the computer was out of warranty, but I was worried it would look suspicious if I renewed the warranty after it expired, and then had the machine serviced.

Since I"m recalling random things about the dell experience, I bought the computer using the dell credit line that they offered me. To authorize the purchase, they called me three times on a different phone line to confirm my identity. It was really weird.

Sorry about the confusion I had there- I'm on some meds that make me a bit woozy.

Oh, one other random knock on alienware: I got an LED hoody for free as part of some promo, but the LEDs died within two weeks. Minor bummer, but probably not their fault lol.
