Heyyo,
Yeah, if you get a dell, you'd be better off trying to just get a 9600 Pro or a 9800 pro.
Seriously, dell is only good if you wanna use it to study for school. Don't expect it to be the gaming machine of your dreams. So yeah, I doupt the stock PSU that dell's have would support the x900 pro.. maybe not even the x850 series. They probably lack the wattage. Same goes for the 6800 series, they're wattage hogs too.
Custom built is the smartest way to get it done. If you can't? then go to a bud who knows it all n' just pay him like $50-$100 to help you put together a system and built it for ya. Hey, better to give a bud your money then a big money-craving corporation I say.
They do come with good warranty and tech-support.. but then again, you have these forums, which have smarter people than dell tech support I bet.
If you do go for dell on these forums, and notice your comp's only half-decent for demanding gaming? oh you can expect the forums to say "I told you so." You have to tell your parents you want custom built. It's like buying a stock engine onna car, it's ok, it'll work fine, but a big block custom engine will haul some serious ass eh? Oh, here's one your parents will probably understand better (or at least your mom will). Why buy furniture at sears where it costs a lot, and only looks "ok" when you can go to ikea, buy high-class furniture cheaper and build it yourself? it's the same things for computers, custom is better.
haha, I bet if you used that, you'd get your parents attention. You gotta fight for your computer man, or dwell onnit until you get the chance to upgrade again.
