The dell XPS machines are reasonable, but you won't be able to play EVERYTHING you throw at it without some overhaul in some very key places.
My recommendation:
Build your own:
Intel Quad Core 2.5
Asus P5Q Mainboard (supports upgrade to the Extreme Quad proc when the time comes )
2gb OCZ PC1200 DDR2 ram (4 if you decide to run 64bit)
GeForce 9 series video with at least 512, preferably 1gb
pick a case, add 800watt PSU, and Vista (for media and DX10 support)
and pay around $1100 US
guaranteed to play Conan with no issues, and anything else you want to put with it.
Good list, just avoid low end GeForce 8x00 and ALL 9x00 cards as they are defective. Pretty much only the original 8800GTS and 8800GTX are not affected by a manufacturing flaw that are causing NVidia cards to drop like flies. Glad I got my 8800GTS back in the day
