The Delta 460W power supply

I am pleasantly surprised! I thought most of us were recommending the VX550 and above for a system using this card and here's one that uses a 460W power supply. In all probability, this system motherboard won't let the user overclock the processor which may have been the reason for the lower rated power supply. (Most Dell workstations and desktops ship with a Delta power supply onboard. Their workstations generally use a 80+ silver rated 850W power supply.)

And all that cramped into a puny enclosure like the Antec NSK4400. :P

Anyways, seems to be a decent enough system for the price. Add to it the unmatched Dell customer service. :)

Seriously good stuff.. looks like they are finally getting their act together for the desktops at least. I'd have bought this immediately if I had the moolah. Maybe I'll hold off on my component upgrades for a year and be able to get this. :ashamed:
