So i pre-ordered Q4 and when it comes ill have the nice wait to see whether or not it runs like powerpoint on my pc (im thinking it will right now)

so i remembered i saw a DELL advert the other day.. saying nothing to pay for a year... WEWT?!!??!?!?!!

so now i scoot on over to dell.co.uk and they even got an area for gaming setups...

btw is hyper-threading worth getting or such? coz it bumps the price up no end..

anyway the gaming setup they got there im thinking i can just as well get one of there demension machines.. cheaper and will do the job...

dimensions

hardcore gaming pro

dunne know what to do ;\

chances are that hyperthreading wont make barely any differrence in games, as games are primarily single threaded... all it does is allow your cpu to address two threads simultaniously (kinda fools windows in to thinking you have 2x cpu's and does make it quicker in some task's but not a huge difference).

XPS's are good, but rediculously over priced, especially when you can build your own..

When the same / a better computer can be built for less money, XPS isnt that good. :P But ofcourse Dell isnt targeted at intelligent people.
