Pentium 4 3.2ghz, 160gb hd, 512mb DDR2 ram.
Basically, the processor is better then the one in my PC by a fair amount, and the DDR2 ram is pretty cheap. I have a 600w PS from my old PC i'll toss in it, and i'll put it in my old PC case to give it more room.
I'll be using it for gaming (Not a hardcore gamer, im "Ok" at online FPS games) and mostly for Sound Engineering (Running Pro-Tools)
I planned on picking up the Samsung 226BW monitor, 1-2gigs of ram and an XFX GeForce 8600 GT XXX. I have external hard drives, for school so im not worried about running out of room.
SO is there anything I should know about the Dell ? All i've heard is that Dell are ok because they can be upgraded... The parts im getting will be inside the dell, but eventually the dell will be replaced with a much better PC.
Thanks very much, I really need the help with this, i've heard a lot of different things about Dell's not being upgradeable and, that this would be fine...
