Dell.ca: Vostro 400 Desktop w/ Quad Core Q6600, 512MB 8800GT, 2GB RAM, 320GB HD, XP H

[购物指南]

It's been a particularly deal-laden month from Dell.ca, and they show little signs of slowing down. Forum poster Hunt has spotted another good system offer, this time in the form of a Vostro 400 Desktop system with an Intel Q6600 processor and a NVIDIA 8800 GT video card for $729. You will need to manually select the 8800GT video card as an upgrade. Here is breakdown of what you're getting:

• Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.40GHz, 8MB L2Cache, 1066FSB)
• Genuine Windows® XP Home
• 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM 800MHz - 2DIMMs
• 320GB Serial ATA Hard Drive (7200RPM)
• Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio
• 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
• Single Drive: 16X (DVD+/-RW) Burner Drive
• 1 Year Next Business Day Onsite/In Home Service and Tech Support

A similar system (with an extra gigabyte of RAM and XP Professional instead of Home) sold for $829 just a few weeks ago. For many run of the mill users, the differences between XP Home and XP Professional will go all but unnoticed, and an extra gigabyte of RAM can be added separately for probably less than $20. This is quite a system for the money. Also, since it is a Vostro computer, it comes with a 30 day no hassle return policy - if you're unsatisfied, you can return it to Dell without paying shipping costs or restock fees.

If you're looking for less of a gaming oriented system, but perhaps a system that includes a monitor, there is an existing smoking hot deal (good until March 27 only) for a Vostro 200 system with an E2180 processor, 2GB RAM, 160GB HD, XP Home, and a 22" LCD for $499. You can also configure that system with a 19" LCD for $449.
