I just went to Dell and configured a XPS710n (black) system. I added no software at all, no monitor, and no printer.
It includes the following hardware:
- *nVidia 590i chip set on the motherboard
- *720 watt power supply (my memory is a bit hazy on this)
- Intel E6600
- *2gb DDR2 667 RAM (the fastest RAM their system supports)
- *250gb SATA2 primary drive
- *300gb SATA2 secondary drive
- *DVD-RW
- Soundblaster X-Fi sound card
- *nVidia 8800GTX
- Logitech Z5500 speaker system
- Dell USB Keyboard
- Razer Copperhead Gaming Mouse
- *3.5 floppy with 13-in-one card reader
- 1 Year Warranty as long as you don't open the box yourself.
* The actual manufacturer of these components is not specified on the Dell site.
Without an OS, the total price is $3288.00, and I'd have to wait until *June* before it shipped.
In my next post, I'll try to duplicate the same general system specs in a home built machine with all parts being selected at NewEgg.
