    Hello,
    Looking for a new mid-rang pc and was thinking about one of these.
    Are they worth it?

    If you are into upgrading and would like to put a new motherboard, new cpu, overclocking etc, then yes the xps630 is well worth it...

    As far as I know they are the first dell pc to use atx case/ standard size motherboard, the others use btx case/ dell only motherboards which cant be upgraded, while the xps630 is fully upgradeable...

    If I was to buy a pre built gaming pc tomorrow, it would be the xps630...

    They have a lovely bios for overclocking, are good value and xps support unlike other dell support, is actually quite decent...

    Pretty good deal below..

    Alternative to Dell...

    Many here have got pre built pc's off this crowd...

    Better value than Dell, but they are in germany and if something goes wrong it can be a pain..

    Use the following coupon to get the dell down to €1034 inc. VAT & Delivery:

    PJ0K?6FDFXHS1W

    If there was no delivery charge, I don't think I could resist.

    :eek:

    Some deal that...

    From checking out dell community forums, you can get a Q6600 to 3.4ghz and the Dual 8800gt are enough for every game ( even Crysis) you can always overclock them too...

    Think they are scoring 17k on 3d Mark when the cpu and graphics are overclocked...

    Not bad for a grand :p
