On Amazon, the i7 4785T version cost 350$ more  and that i7 is still slower than most i7 out there
You can get i7 4790S for $330,  maximum turbo speed = 4.0GHz which is very fast . i7 4790S is low power CPU , it should work with that Alienware Alpha  
Edit : You can also buy the i3 4130T version which is slightly cheaper than the i3 4170T version

I'm ashamed to say that upgrading it later didn't even come to mind XD
I know the Video Card is non-changeable but I'm not to worried about having the biggest and best one.
Although if that base model can play all those easily then that would be perfect!

In that case , either i3 4170T or i3 6100T version is fine
i7 4785T has maximum turbo = 3.2GHz but max turbo is usually single core turbo mode (only 1 core at that speed) . I think it could run at slower speed (somewhere between 2.8->3.0GHz) unless you overclock it with Intel XTU

GTX 860M is a mobile GPU . Like any other GPUs , it will not run at full potential unless your force it . Make sure you follow the performance guide

Oh well, I think we need an option like this to prevent pointless post

Purged that user as a bot just to be on the safe side. If they're legit, they'll complain, and their accounts can be restored.
