Good deal, then. I'm thinking about it. What I have now is a 2.4GHz Pentium with a 533MHz bus. 2.0G of RAM (Socket 478, 533MHz) and an FX5500 card (eVGA). So I'm looking at the CoreDuo processors and wondering if I can afford a new system. I like the idea, I just wonder how much is "enough." Don't need the 2.93 processor but not sure what I'd have to get to see an appreciable difference from what I have now. If I can afford it, I think I'd like the 2.4 CoreDuo, but am not sure which of Dell's video card options would be best. I definitely do NOT need quad SLI. But dual cards or GPUs might be nice.
