I was looking at the 7i vs Area-51 18, but in the 5090 spec. I'm lucky enough to live near a Micro Center where I could play with them both in person, and went for the Alienware.

I still have a functioning Alienware Area 51 R1, and an Alienware X15 I use as a daily driver. While I will be the first to admit that dealing with Dell if you have a problem can be a serious challenge, it has gotten a little better. If you get a good one it will last you many years, my advice if yo
