Thanks for all the opinions by the way. I had a prolonged battle with best buy trying to cancel my original order because the computer I was trying to buy got put on backorder. etc etc etc, long story short I got stuck with the Dell I was originally trying to buy a month and a half ago despite changing my mind and trying to back out of it. Oh well, serves me right dealing with those people (never using best buy for anything ever again). Definitely building my own next time. Wanted to this time but don't have a lot of time at the moment and needed one set up and ready to go as quickly as possible. And being that most of my computer experience is from tearing apart and fiddling with old computers that aren't worth anything I was scared to try this time since I was on a time table. Didn't want to spend $800 building a new one and f*** something up and be screwed for months while I try to resolve it lol.


Still pretty nice, thing freaking flies lol. Spent most of my first evening with it uninstalling almost everything on it and "fixing" it. But is a i7 second gen intel 3.4, 8 gb ram expand to 16, with a ati 6770, and 2 TB hard drive which I needed to store a lot of stuff on. I'll live with it for the next 4 or 5 years.
