wow a fully loaded rig with a quad core,8800gtx,20" lcd for around 65k+ taxes...looks like a good deal for people who dont like buying assembled stuff
 
I would still go for an assembled system considering we can tweak each part to the max without breaking warranty of the whole system at one go.... :Comp9:

It comes to about 80k with 8800GTX and 2GB DDR800...

Interesting that it costs just about 14k additional cost to upgrade frm 2600XT to 8800GTX :cool2:
 
THe rig is decently priced, but the service tax really kills! comes around 9k for chennai! For 67k im sure we can get a better rig.

buddy,, guess ur new wit dell.. they normally always let off the tax part.. an sometimes even throw in some other freebies if u haggle smoothly.. :hap2:
 
^ Well they probably wont let off a full 9k cash discount (cause they anyways are paying service tax), but they'll surely cut-off 4-5k :)

Seems like a VERY decent option, great pricing and configs too!
 
Thats a pretty good deal imo.
you get a x38 + 8800GTX + Q6600 + 2008wfp(!) for <75k..
hdd,ram have quite rip off prices tho.
 
yeah.. the mb would most probably be a dell assembled one only.. not sure though.

an as for ram.. im sure u can upgrade it urself.. i hav an ibm desktop whose ram an hdd iv upgraded witout voiding the warranty.. expect the same from dell.

Man, if i was in need of a system, i would have surely bought that system. Sounds a pretty decent deal, get this pc, add some more ram, your own cooling, i think the mobo supports oc, if it doesnt then change it, :) , its still gonna be a awesome deal.
