probaly around 2000-3000 dollars because the processor is almost a thousand dollars http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819115011 and the graphics cards are about 600 each and theres 2 of them http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814146001 and the rams about a hundred dollars per GB and you have 4 so thats about another 400 dollars so expect about 2 to 3 thousand for that computer

your welcome if i were you i would keep it unless your low on money to pay rent or something like that because that computer blows away the ps3 and 360 in power and it will still be a nice computer to have untill like 2010 but if you reallly don't like computer gaming then sell it but at least try a few games because it it really fun

My question is, if you're not into PC gaming why did you ask if that computer would be good for PC gaming?  What's the point.  You're just bragging and/or wasting our time with stupid questions.

The sad thing is, every day there is a thread nearly identical to this one in which someone asks if their computer is good, only to name off like the best parts in the most ridiculous computer available.  I don't know if these are lonely people looking for attention or if they just like to annoy others online.  I haven't figured out just why people do this...

Please don't believe any of the newbs posting here. That PC is old and wont run any games. Those links they gave you are photoshopped. Just send it to me and I will upgrade it with new parts and you will be able to enjoy gaming!

People need to not be so uptight. This topic is hilarious.

And to the OP, you need to add some more RAM to the computer your uncle "won". Everyone knows you need at least 10 gigs of RAM to game properly...:lol:

If you hadn't figured it out already, that is probably within the 99.1 percentile of gaming specs. But even total computer noobs would know that something with a menacing and awe-inspiring name like Quad, and GTX. Anyway, if you do get this for free, then props for you. but if your posting just to annoy people or to brag, then leave...and go bother the consolers...

Brilliant for gamin - fantastic rig. Although what do you mean when you say "up to 4GB RAM" ? How much RAM do you have ?

I would like to quote Dell XPS's website:
Intel® Core™2 Extreme QX6700 (2.66GHz/8MB L2 Cache,1066 FSB)
Up to 4GB Dual Channel (DDR2 SDRAM (667MHz))
Dual 768MB NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX

Your syntax is identical to that on DELL's website.. and since when do you win a desktop with up to 4GB  of RAM. You cut and pasted from DELL's website... why did you make this topic? Are you that desperate for friends?
