what's the difference between the GeForce 6800 GT and the GTO model?

The GTO is somewhere between 6800 and 6800GT.

Anyone ever phone ordered from Dell Outlet?

You are seeing the error msg because your session times out after an hour or two. I always open a new browser session every hour to avoid the error. I think you can also click on your cart button then go back and try to add to your cart.

Dell outlet has a special phone number from what I understand but I don't have the number and think they may be closed on the weekend.

Nope, others got the same error. I got home around 5am (CST), and within a couple of minutes tried to order, and got the same error. Others on FW reported the same.

I got hit with the checkout error also. Grabbed a nice 6000 for $553 this morning and went all the way through the checkout process but when I hit submit order I received the error page. I tried going back and forth, refreshing screen, etc. but still got the error. I tried a bunch of times. I hope Dell doesn't charge me for each submit click.

OK, sombody with an open 8400 help me out here. On the back of the case there is a trim strip that runs around silver metal. Does it go all the way around or not ?. This is the second system I got where the part that would be on the lock side is missing. There are small holes like it would snap on and complete the trim but it's not there. On my 4300 it goes all the way around.

I know, it's a minor point but now I'm wondering.

Saw it, looked at it. Ignored

Stickin with my 4700's!

You grab any 4700's? I snagged one just now. 3.2Ghz/dual DVD/80GB/512MB, paid 375, but it should fetch a 100 profit.

 

[sigpop]

gshock, the 8400's with similar equipment sell for much less. why would that xp3 be worth it?

 

[gshock888]

the xps are just beauties. i have both a 8400 and XPS, the XPS has a high powered workstation 450w PSU , better airflow, basically a very very nice case with a LOT more room to expand (one extra PCI, 3 5.25", 3 3.5" drive bays) basically it is a precision workstation made as a gaming desktop

then again sigpop you might be right the XPS arent selling as hot as I expected them to be...

 

[bamacre]

These guys at FW are snagging up 4700's for less than 100

WTF??????

Look at this stuff

 

[gshock888]

holy hell!

It WAS 50 off that 124, for whoever bought it. No coupon, just on sale.

I just picked up SIX 4700's, all fairly nice, average 300 each after tax, couple had a gig of ram. That was after missing 10 that were cheaper, starting at $64.

Edit: Make it 8, and I'm going back to bed

Whewwww, gonna have a hell of a lot of 4700's on Ebay next week.

[Lyman42]

just picked up an Inspiron 9300 for $878 shipped & tax included

1.6ghz
XP pro
512 533mhz 2 dimms
80 gb 5400 rpm
128 meg ATI x300 pci xpress
WXGA+ 17"
Pro Wireless 2200 b/g
cdrw/dvd combo
53whr (6 cell) battery
Total: $858

With tax and Ship: $878

I'd say this is as good as the 750 off 1499 deal, as I got a bigger HDD, XP Pro, better video card, and cdrw/dvd. But then again, it is refurbished, but still...I'm happy

I thought I was too. I checked my Subscriptions, and I am signed up for emails. But no 18% off for me.

Haha, I love that username.

I'm a little apprehensive about buying from the Outlet during this month; this is the one month during their quarter where new systems are typically less expensive than refurbs. Although if you grab a sub-$100 4700, I would buy that in a heartbeat.

I am willing to sell the coupon. PM me with offers. I'm not looking to rip anyone off and will accept reasonable offers.
