Upgrade System

[longam]

Well after 6 long years of this tired old P4, I went and took the plunge and bought me a game rig. I contemplated building my own again and shopped around at different sites for pre-built systems and decided to go with the XPS. This is the middle system but its light years ahead of what I have, and I didn't want to spend 3k on a system.



Specs:
Intel Core2 E8400 (6MB,3.0 GHz, 1333FSB)
4GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz - 4 DIMMs
nVidia GeForce 9800 GT 512MB
500GB - 7200RPM, SATA 3.0Gb/s, 16MB Cache
Genuine Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 1
Single Drive: 16X CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) w/double layer write capability
Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio
Hauppauge HVR1250 Hybrid TV Tuner with Remote

I like to have TV running on my PC so I put a new tuner card in there.
The integrated sound is cool by me, I've been using that on the current system I have and it sounds just fine.
I'm glad I already bought my monitor.

Now the waiting game begins
