I've had no experience with alienware myself so take my comment with a pinch of salt but I doubt you'd be getting value for money if you bought from them (someone please correct me if I'm wrong).
If you do want to build a computer yourself just put a little research into the parts you're planning on buying, if you're unsure of anything tomshardware forum is a really good place for advice on anything computer related.
Do remember though that it's not just the graphics card that you need to think about when building a gaming pc (or any pc for that matter). What I mean by this is you don't want to buy a high end graphics card and then power it with a cheap PSU, because that's just a recipe for disaster.
One thing I'd definitely recommend is an SSD (this will help significantly with loading times). I'm currently using the Samsung 840 EVO and I couldn't recommend it enough!
Hope this helps :)

cdtman3 reacted toDeactivated Memberin Someone please help me with customizing a gaming computerThose will work at minimal, but cheap, the only thing i wouldn't recommend is Windows Vista. If i could i'd recommend Windows 8 (not 8.1), or Windows 7, i say Windows 8 because it is actually a good OS for gaming, but 7 or 8 will do fine.

Here is a very nice build around 1250. Any budget limit?

cdtman3 reacted toDeactivated Memberin Someone please help me with customizing a gaming computerThat seems like it should be able to run GTA IV just fine on quite decent settings. If you wanted to, though, you can build your own PC and that will be a little bit more bang for your buck.

That will run the game on High with no issues, but I recommend building your own. You can get way better performance for your money if you build your own and you get the satisfaction of knowing that you built it and not somebody else. Look at it like it's expensive legos, it's not difficult at all. There are plenty of great videos out there that teach you step-by-step what to do.
