If you're going to be gaming on that machine, don't get a 6200SE......if your budget is small-ish, go for either the 6600 or 6800 (GT, if you can stretch to it). | |

Much cheaper to buy a system off the likes of Dell than have one custom built. quote: Hey, i get paid for doing that stuff :o :mad: :lol: :lol: | |

dells are good for work, but i havent been that impressed with them for home from what iv seen, upgrading them is near impossible as most of the components are designed for dell meaning you cant replace them as they are different. | |
