@benfal pc spec
the processor is THE best out, incredible overclocker, can get to 4.4GHz on air alone!
cpu info here-
http://www.anandtech.com/show/40…Ram is 1333mhz, 16000mhz is preferred, but when you have 12 gig of the stuff i dont think it matters! never heard of the ram manufacturer though, but you'll have the dell warranty.
The graphics card isnt great, so if you're doing any gaming be warned. You'll just about be able to run old first person shooter like left for dead -
http://www.tomshardware.com/revi…another great GPU source -
http://www.anandtech.com/bench/G…Hard drives are good, raid is very fast but if one drive fails you lose data on both drives (as they act as one drive), for the money you're spending id get a solid state drive and a normal drive, one to work on (SSD) and one to store stuff on (normal drive). The ssd drive is mega fast, boots v quickly too.
Overall it looks good, but with the changes ive added, which will cost more.
which brings me to this...i say...BUILD IT YOURSELF.
its so easy, its like lego and will save you quite a bit of cash and best of all you can customize it as you like (SSd etc).hope that helps!!
(be aware the more ram sticks you have in your machine the harder it is to overclock, as the north bridge on the motherboard has to work harder to perform the overclocks, so you may struggle with all that ram, but tbh, you wont need to overclock)
- Graphic's cards are cheap to upgrade. You can probably get at GTX 460 for under $200 these days.canuck
- well said canuck, a gtx 460 would be an excellent choice.
its the best bang for buck card there is, or an ati 5850.Hombre_Lobo - just gotta make sure the motherboard is decent enough for it, pci-express slots etc, 16x or 8x etc.Hombre_Lobo
- dont think you can overclock a dell moboepigraph
