Just Got My New Computer Hooked Up!!!

This thing is sick. I got a...
2.53 GHz P4
256 MB of Ram (will prob upgrade to 512 soon)
64 MB nvidia Ti 4200
DVD and a CD-R/RW
80 GB hd
Soundblaster Live Sound Card

and my prized possession, a 15" Digital FPD

I will never go back to CRT again. This screen is absolutely amazing.

Oh yeah. Dude, it's a Dell

thats sweet, the only thing i would have suggested was to have paid the extra $40 for the Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card, bc it makes a hella difference, but still a sweet computer nonetheless, enjoy!

just went to the store and picked up another 256 mb of ram. that should be plenty. also, I didn't get the turtle beach sound card because the website said it was only recommended for 4 or more speakers and I'm only running 2. oh well. Hopefully when I hook the computer up to my stereo it will sound alright. I think the 128 mb video card was another $100 and I was already waaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy over budget. Initially, I wanted to stay under a grand. (read below)

the grand total was $1800 with tax and shipping but I got $200 off of that for being a student. oh yeah, I also got the 3 year in home warranty because I don't wanna have to worry about it breaking down on me and getting screwed. (I'm on the quarter system so classes are gonna move fast)

Dell sure skimped out on the RAM and video card for a computer with such a fast CPU...
congrats on the new computer though.. safe

I almost got the 19" flat tube but that b!tch is huge and very heavy. my desk at the dorm is only like 18" deep so I needed something thin so I would still have room to do my homework on it. It sounds like you got a nice system.
