I would have got the xps 400, it will do the exact same thing and is much $$$

oh dells lcd's are ghost city they use panels from lg and samsung and most of them are like 12 - 8ms When I got my system I got the 19" crt flat screen it was really nice. I was affraid to get an lcd because of the ghosting in games. So I took the chance one day and ordered a dell 19" lcd and after 5 mins of seeing 3 of the same thing I sent it back and got me a viewsonic 2ms and I must say it blew me away :)

price: maybe a little bit too much, about 1700
 well, i did upgrade from a 400 mhz p2 comp with 512mb memory and 12 gb hard drive. it is like 7 years old. my folks are probably not going to get me another pc for maybe ten more years so, well...... oh, by the way, all the option i chose were the standard things, no big upgrades.
ßlåkjáx, what is a "pos screen"

Damn I really hope for you it also has a videocard ;)  lol, what is the videocard?

Your pc is just a bit better then mine, your ram is 667Mhz, and mine is 533Mhz, and thats the only big difference I guess. Oh yeah, and the videocard will be better too since I have a 6700 XL
btw 3.0Ghz dualcore runs fucking great, I love it.

Who needs a new pc, my Commodore 64 runs BF2 just fine.

Post by: *MAFIA* Bonehead on July 01, 2006, 05:25:21 AM
3.0 ht in the eyes of aps is the same damn thing as dualcore. Until aps and games start taking advantage of dual cores they are useless unless you run a server then you will use it.

The video card is the standard option, no upgrade to dual. It's a geforce 256mb 7900gs. I don't know the complete specs of it. If anyone has it, does it run the new games pretty well? Going from a 400mhz pc to 3.0 ghz dual core is going to be freakin awesome.

I got a Geforce 7800 Gt and it runs the game fine. very little lag on bf2, but everyone lags on that game. No lag ever on any other game. Well yeah...
