Is This A Good Computer?

Look i just bought a DELL XPS 410. IT has the DUAL CORE PROCESSOR with 4 gigs of ram and a 2.66GHZ processor with 320 gig dual hard drive and i paid 1800 for it, but i have the upgraded video card i think its a NVIDIA or something like that and i was just wondering if i got jipped or not...Need some good feedback. Thanks to you all!

You didn't know if it was good before you bought it? That's more fucking stupid than the time I bought a Thai bride and it turned out to be a dude.

Still, five years on and I'm happier than ever.

Good idea upping the RAM especially if you do a lot of intensive work. I need to upgrade my macbook to 2gb, pain.

It was cute but I'm an evil motherfucker and years of domestic violence mean that "it" now looks like a potato and has a woefully distended anus.

There's nothing wrong with being retarded... For starters, you get to grope women and just when they turn to slap you, chew your hand and say "Nnnng" and all is well. You don't have to work either, you get Social Security or similar and if you play your cards right - a hot nurse to sponge bath you \o/

4 GB of ram, .......it better run a 64bit operating system, cause 32bit doesnt recognise over 3GB ram - thats for both win XP and vista.

what the fuck do i know...Ive got to pedal like shit to generate enough electricity to get my computer to run. I still use word perfect..........yeh baby

Posted by john107 on 10-26-2007 08:48 PM:

at todays prices it's worth about half of the 1800 u paid 4 it dude.

ok, so the fact that the 32 bit OS will only support 3 gigs of RAM is a serious one, especially since that particular PC came with Media Center as a default OS. vista x64 can see all 4 gbs, but you'll never use all 64 bits. the motherboard that ships with the DELL XPS 410 utilizes a 40 bit external data bus (congrats on using those extra 8 bits!); not to mention that 64 bit apps are practically non-existent. (AMD is currently making a 64 bit quad core hyperthreaded processor that will be able to utilize two 64 bit external data buses at the same time. intel's quad core is simply 2 dual cores side by side using the same old EDB design.) in short, install a 64 bit OS (if you didn't already), upgrade the RAM (not quantity, but speed) and overclock the living hell outta it. that'll ensure you get to use it properly for a while without worrying about whether or not you got ripped off.

On the subject of value for money...

"Wal-Mart to carry $199 computer
Wed Oct 31, 2007 8:16 pm
Story : http://www.chicagotribune.com/busin...,0,5023511.stor
Scattered among the $500 to $1,000 desktop computers available at Walmart.com, one machine stands out. It doesn't have a unique design, but its price tag looks like a typo: $199.

Prices for consumer electronics goods, ranging from HDTVs to mobile phones, drop consistently, but few products have more potential to impact a person's ability to learn or find work than a computer.

The cheap computers -- sold beginning this week at 20 Illinois Wal-Mart locations -- are offered at a time when charitable efforts such as the "One laptop per child" program intended to provide portable computers for $100 to children in developing countries, have struggled to achieve results. That laptop will now cost $200, but the program has yet to deliver a product.

The computer for sale at Wal-Mart, on the other hand, can immediately put an affordable machine into the hands of anyone from students in low-income households to senior citizens on strict budgets, thus addressing the critical social issue of a so-called "digital divide" in the U.S. between those with access to computers and the Internet and those without."

Damn URL no good. This one is: http://www.chicagotribune.com/busin...ll=chi-news-hed
