Dude, you're getting a $10k Dell

When I think of a gaming PC, I think of maybe an Athlon FX-60 processor with two top of the line graphics cards running in SLI or CrossFire mode. Never would I imagine, however, that I would plunk down $10,000 -- not far from the base price of a 2007 Toyota Yaris.

Excess is best at Dell with its new XPS 600 Renegade. This limited edition, custom-painted monster comes equipped with an Intel Pentium 965 Extreme Edition processor overclocked to 4.26GHz. In addtion, it features two 10,000RPM 160GB Raptor hard drives in a RAID-0 configuration plus an additional 7,200RPM 400GB hard drive. Also included is a Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatal1ty sound card with front-side controller and 2GB DDR2 667 memory. To top things off, the XPS 600 comes paired with four GeForce 7900 graphics cards running in Quad-SLI.

With all of that processing power, the XPS takes full advantage of AGEIA PhysX processing and can run applications at up to 2,560 x 1,600. By the way, you can enjoy all of this goodness on the included Dell 3007WFP 30-inch widescreen flat panel monitor.

If all of this sounds enticing to you, the XPS 600 will be available in limited quantities for $9,930.

Giggity giggity goo thats a good dell

very expensive

[.::nØ燎ƒµEL::.]

SLI will take us all away, CROSSFire too!!!

i would have made that monster with a quad-CrossFire with ATI Radeon X1600, nVidia has speed but poor image quality, ATI has an astonishing image quality, it has all sorts of filters and stuff, but could lack of performance spee, if compared to nVidia, so i think its better to quad an ATI to increase the speed and still having gorgeous image quality !!

Crossfire loses its Proformance by the way the link the 2 gfx cards it causes and back upp of data and stuff

Crossfire is 2 cards connected with 2 cables

ATI is a Bridge conenction which allows it to act and transfer faster.

its sounds great, but if you take all the hardware to build it your self what you end up with a monster ether way, only if you build it, bet it be a lot cheaper in price.

brand name kills it a lot of the time price is jackup.
