And a window I bet

Not using UV then to show off the reactive components?

PS. the Dell looks impressive, I'd still prefer Alienware with an FX57/SLI if buying a prebuilt though.

No window. Just lights shining through the front of the case and fans. In fact, it is a Alienware SLI machine with a X2 4800+, so you already know what the case looks like

Decided to go prebuilt this time around rather than build my own, (I didn't need the aggrovation when it didn't work ).

Now thats a **** hot gaming rig! Nice one

Was considering a second 7800 512 for mine, but decided to wait for G80.
But will be going X2 as soon as AMD do the rumoured price drops.

Anyway, on the subject of Dell & Gaming - must admit the 30" gaming TFT looks damn impressive, but realistically I'm looking at their 2407 when it comes out.

Yep. I've got 2x 512 7800Gtx (sli) in it as well, and it does run stuff quite quickly

I've just bought myself a Samsub 214T (8ms 21.3" lcd). Seems to work very nicely with everything I've thrown at it so far gaming wise. I thought about getting one of the large Dell gaming screens, but just couldn't justify the cost

That Dell's got Quad SLI technology with dual 1GB 7800 SLI cards.

That's got to be expensive!

At the very least you could do away with your central heating - those P4's are darn hot!

Apparently between $5000-$7000 depending on how you configure it. No uk pricing as yet...
