You guys could at LEAST be helpful to the guy, god. I only see 1 or 2 helpful posts.
killervenom47, Although I don't recommend prebuilt, it seems like you'd rather own a working computer than risking having a bunch of expensive plastic laying around, and that's OK.
The Dell system you are looking at, the XPS 200, is a good system, and is Vista ready and can run almost every game on the market today. The graphics card is something to worry about though.
Which one should I get?
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950
128MB PCI Express x16 ATI Radeon™ X600 SE
Intel Graphics are integrated, meaning they use system memory (RAM) and most likely will slow your games down dramatically. The ATI x600se is a much better buy, no matter what. It shouldn't be more than $75 to upgrade it. Id take it.
And you guys, he clearly wants to play current-gen games, which this computer is perfectly capable of doing. If he doesnt want to play FEAR with Anti-Analyzing at full at a resolution of 1600x1200, then why does he need a computer that can or that can upgrade to it?
With the current GPU setup, the ATI PCIe x600se, he can upgrade any time he feels to a better GPU. Its PCIe, after all.
The computer you want to buy is good, and will probably even play H2Vista. Please Ignore all these people who don't even have proper grammar.
If you need any more advice, gimme a buzz on xfire. My user name is "hellblazer970"
Ill check this thread if you don't have xfire :)No I don't have xfire, but thank you for being so incredibly helpful.
