I Need A Dell For World of Warcraft. (Noob)

Ok here it is. The monitor and speakers I will buy seperately. Do you think this is worth the money? How will it perform compared to your build? The CPU I wasn't sure of, because I don't know really how all the numbers mean and whatnot.

Thanks

mine will be wayyy better, but ill put one together that is about the same price for you

Well, I'll need one with an operating system I guess. I read up on W7 and some people said it didn't work with what they had. Unless it'll be a smooth download and install.

I just want a hassle free build up. After today...I had enough troubles with the desk!

its a teensy bit better of a system, for 60 dollars less :\

well if u dont want to do windows 7, then its not really worth the time to build ur own

Hey Toxic - Concerning CPUs. What if I bought that premade Dell, but with the lowest CPU I could get.

Then I bought an Intel i7 from Newegg and put it in there? A possibility?
Maybe add a little extra ram?

Just wondering if I could get a weaker prebuilt and then upgrade it with aftermarket parts?

 

[ndatoxicity]

that probably wouldnt work...because the sockets wouldnt match up

but you sure can add extra ram

yea u can do that

So I should try to get a good CPU from the dell builder?

I'm confused on the whole CPU thing. GHz are confusing me too. I think Wow needs like 2.1 GHz but I'm not sure about counterstrike. If you can help me out here, I might be able to order tonight.

Here are the ones available with the Studio.

[ndatoxicity]

dont go quad....

stick with dual's...go with core 2 duo

 

[Adam91]

Which one?

+ Performance Processors
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E7400 (3MB L2, 2.8GHz, 1066FSB) [add $70]
Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E7500 (3MB L2, 2.93GHz, 1066FSB) [add $110 or $1/month1]

There is a $40 difference between the 2. Is there a noticeable difference between them?

And why not go quads? lol.
