    ^lol but that $630 quad core doesn't have a 8800gt, blue ray/dvd rw dual drive/ XPS 420 case/ 4gb of 800mhz ram and a 4 year Dell warranty lol...still dunno if it's really actually possible to get a $1000 off deal like that cause it requires membership discounts, heard you can get that by calling the Dell Employees though, but you can configure a quad core dell without member discounts: 500gb and a ATI HD 2600XT for $750 now with a $350 off coupon. just add the additional RAM yourself and you can get like 4gb of RAM plus the comp for like 850 bucks.

    The plugs on the motherboard only reads the speed of the fans. You don't have to plug the fans in to the motherboard for them to work. ;)
     
  10. yea the xps is nice.. but no monitor.. =/

    i wanted the xps all in one.. but i wouldn't be able to upgrade the thing..

    ^too bad you can't take the blue ray option off, coulda got a monitor with that money and blue ray is bound to drop in the future and it's unnecessary in a comp now, my pretty new 22inch couldn't even support HDMI. The XPS 420 case is nice though, it even has that little screen at the top that can run these so called gadgets and stuff lol.
     
  12. yea I like the all in one monitor.. too bad they can't just make a monitor like that..

    and you can always get dvi to hdmi..

    but wouldn't the signal be better if it was hdmi compatible, anyways gonna go more into that HD/Blue Ray entertainment like next year lol cause TV would be broadcast in HD during 2009 anyways, sticking with the old school equipment now.

    Oh yea and the Dell XPS ONE all in one, too bad you can add a good graphics card too and it's only 20inch. rather get it seperate even if it's more clean.

    ^uhhh $750 is alot for a quad core and a decent graphics card computer? i think someone here spent more on upgrades alone..... -whistle
