Okay. Looking at the new XPS's from Dell, I noticed something that I thought was odd. One video card with two processors (GPUs) and 1 GIG of on card memory...

A lot of people do not have a gig of memory in their PCs. This is ON THE FREAKIN VIDEO CARD!

Now imagine running two of these beauties in a SLI rig.

I am going to wait until Intel releases their Conroe processors and see what AMD fires back with, but I feel that new rig itch starting to hit me :alien:

I should have enough saved up by the time I retire.


Also, if you are a Superman fan:

These are Limited Editions and will probably sell for a LOT more on Ebay.

Oh, and even more off topic. You want to try World of Warcraft for FREE? You can try it out for 10 days. You do not have to purchase the game, but you will have to download it. Hey, just leave the PC on all night.

I saw from the link in the other thread that the Dell XPS 700 will have that 2 Gig SLI setup available. I also saw that you could have up to 4 Gig of onboard RAM as well.

I got the price of one up to $5800 on the US site before I wandered away. :blackeye:

For that price, I would expect Dell to send STD free hookers to fix it in case it broke.
