i went on to dell.com and customized an XPS 410 and an XPS 710, and i gave them the same processor, os, ram, graphics card, monitor, ect.
When I looked at the prices for the 2 pcs, the xps 710 cost almost $1000 more than the xps 410, and i am wondering why does one cost more than the other, and by $1000. can anyone help with this.

Does the 710 come with crap they usually give you like a tee shirt and mousepads?


EDIT: And if it even mentions GAMING add at leat $200

on the 710 you chose the 8600GTS as your card that may have a difference, on the 410 you chose the 7300 LE

but the difference should not be $1000

that is just what the pcs start with, if you change it so that the pcs match, then the prices will be alot different

The case can add up to $200 at most, but tbh, Dell does overprice some of their products to make profit, instead of equal to what they got it for.

Just got to newegg.com and build you a system there and see how much cheaper (at least half) of what the Dell's cost. I put together a really nice system for less that $600.

RAM
CPU
vista
320GB HDD
19" monitor viewsonic built in speakers
7300 LE

you can keep keyboard/mouse and the HDD unless it's small, and the CD/DVD ROM drive you can probably keep

I totalled all of those parts, and it's $790.45, without tax and shipping/handling.

You save $500, then you get some mail-in rebates with some of those

btw that's from the 410

crap I forgot the MOBO, let me look it up too

mobo

$930.44
here's a better mobo, the price would drop by $20 or $30

Yeah, if you still don't want to build your own computer, Dell is running a good deal on this right now.
