These are the specs I set the system to. Use the 15 percent off coupon you get in the e-mail and voila, there's your system. Oh, also combine it with luv2save's hot deal on the Viewsonic 17 inch lcd and you got a full system for a little under 1000 dollars.



BTW, that 628 dollars includes my 6 percent Florida tax. It may differ from state to state. Good luck! :)

Wouldn't you want to get the 2.8GHZ 800Mhz version to ensure you get the latest motherboard?

So, all you pretty much get is a video card and a processor for $700. Good for some I guess. If anyone needs the 15% coupon, PM me.


GONE!!!!

Re: Radeon 9800...

I got one of these w/ a Dell 8300 deal (which was < $700 AR btw)...

I havent seen any specs on it anywhere, but it's a very good performer. Supposedly the same as the 9800 Pro w/ lower clocks. Here's what I do know...

- Dell installs Directx 9.0 (not A)
- 3dmark2001: default clock 15000 and max o/c 16650.
- 3dmark2003: just over 5000.
- Has fan on chip, but not on (samsung) memory
- Of the two i've tested, both o/c well, cpu will go to max (430mhz i think) and memory on card A went to 380mhz and card B abaout 360mhz w/o problems (386mhz is max in Powerstrip). However, speed increases werent all that, so o/c not a big deal.
- Dell does not install nor offer the ATI software (like DVD player). They included PowerDVD. Anyone know if ATI will give this to you?
