Why did you get a ty GPU?
Just opened the box on my new dell ispiron 6400... its pretty... but heavy as ! heres the specs
Twin Core Duo Processor @ 1.83 (BOTH)
512 RAM, 60G HD 15 INCH WIDESCREEN LCD
SOME CRAP INTEL INTERGRATED GRAPHICS GARBAGE THAT WONT PLAY ANY GAMES.
DVD-RW (never had one of these before...)
anyone have a dell? how do u like it?
Why did you get a ty GPU?
i dont know... i didnt think it was worth the extra money.
But you're mad it won't play any games?
Two words: User error.
Oh, and to keep with the mcornelio theme...
Blah blah, your girlfriend, blah blah, bukkake.
I have a Dell i9300 ... thought I've posted about it before.
Pentium M 1.6Ghz (Gonna upgrade this at some point ...)
2GB DDR2
60gig 7200rpm
GeForce 7800GTX Go (Yah, did the install myself)
17" UXGA+ ... 1920x1200, load of desktop space.
You might want to check out www.notebookforums.com as it's a good resource for dell information.
Get it right ... PEBKAC or ID-10-T error.
The new office computers are Dells (don't have the specs on me), and I've been quite happy with them so far.
If for any reason I felt like moving away from Gateway, which is what I've got at home and have been quite happy with, I'd probably go for a Dell.
lol... i already checked out notebookforums, they helped me make my decision on what laptop to get. how did you put your GPU in? i might upgrade it in a few weeks if its possible
New video card, battery and power strip ... $478.
But I made sure when I bought my laptop that it was the modular PCIE slot. If you ask around and find out if you can fight a 6800 non-ultra from a i9300, I'd be happy to sell you mine.
Inspiron E1505
Intel® Core™ Duo processor 1.66ghz
1GB DDR2
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950(This thing is a beast.)
80GB 5400rpm
15.4" widescreen
WTF.. I THINK Ill JUST KEEP MY GPU THANK YOU, almost 500 bucks!! WTF! oh and Marklar MM its the same exact system that we have, its just that yours was bough from dells home division and mine is from the small business, its the same system, except my processor ownz joo, oh and we have the same graphics card... since when is it a beast, i havent ed with it yet but im guessing intergrated means crappy
Question... does anyone use any of this bundled software that came with it.... im erasing it all, just want to know if its all useless.
need more memory
i know, already ordered it... its just too expensive off dell, question... this wireless wlan program that it comes with is 100mb... can i erase the ?
Dell is the bomb. I would never get anything else ever again.
my dell is annoying me.
first i have 2 lines on the screen ( i think i know the cause, at least i hope)
two, my power cords keep dying, i think i have finally figured out that the power outlet is loose for soem reason as i have to keep it jerryrigged far to the right, putting pressure on it for it to work.
two is annoying me far greater than one, enough to where i nearly snapped today, especially when my old power cord snapped, literally.
What wireless network card did you get? If it's the Intel A/B/G, I'll give you a link to get a new one so that you remove that piece of crap from your computer.
dell wireless 1390 wlan mini-card i removed it anyone, if i need it ill get it after but im not keeping any of this .... it makes the pc run like its a celeron at 300 mhz... so everything is gone until further notice, exept the mcafee antivirus.
I have a Dell XPS
P4 3.4 Ghz HT
2 Gigs DDR RAM
120 Gig HD
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro
The things a gaming beast...I will probably get a new vid card for it though..but the 9800 Pro does the trick for now.
I have been very pleased with it & plan on buying a new XPS when I start my new job.
wow.. big p your probably weights like a ton.
Its not as bad as you would think...I'm not saying its as light as a lap top, but it stays in one spot, so the weight doesn't really bother me..I do like the fact that it has 4 cooling fans & easy access to the inside, when I want to give it a cleaning.
Damn, I'm ready to buy a system and no one has released an nForce 590 board for Intel Core2 duo CPUs.
Here's what I'm planning so far
CPU:
Intel Core 2 Duo 6700 or Core 2 Extreme 6800 (leaning more to the 6700, but the 6800 is enticing)
GPUS:
2 Geforce 7950x2 (quad SLI setup, as soon as Asus releases their freaking nForce590 board)
MEM:
4 x mushkin eXtreme Performance 1GB DDR2 800
POWER:
PC Power and Cooling 1000 W RMS
HDS:
2 Western Digital Raptor X 150GB 10,000 RPM HDs (1 for Linux, 1 for Windows)
2 Maxtor 500 GB 7200 RPM HD (for data)
CASE:
I'm thinking of going with this case:
I'm tempted to buy one of these physics processors too, but I wonder how many developers are going to support it:

Not sure on audio or what water cooling I'll use yet.
