Out of the box the Alienware will be better with the 1060 GPU by a significant margin. However you wont be able to upgrade the CPU in the future, so its up to you if immediate performance is more important then long term, although CPUs tend to last far longer then GPU.

One thing to remember is that external GPU setups tend to be quite expensive since the enclosures are usually a few hundred and then you need to purchase a GPU.
