Obviously you're not comparing apples to apples.
NO REALLY??? I thought they said there wasnt ANY system that came close, and I thought this was supposed to be a budget gaming pc.
So you can copy and paste specs and see that 2 is greater than 1. Gateway 400watt PS as to 750watt from dell.
So? I can get a 750 watt power supply that I wouldnt install in an emachine.. Numbers (750 watts) are not the end all with power suppllies if you haven't heard. What is the brand? Effeciency at 40 degrees C? Stuff like that matters, now Im not saying the gateway one is better but maybe it is more accurate, you never know.
Dell has 650i SLI chipset as to the Intel G33 Viiv.
650i ohhh ahhhh sorry dont care, if i am in the market for a "budget" pc Im not really all that concerned with "sli" nor the issues associated (actual performance in my games and resolution, drivers)... budget gaming pc needs to be cheap, stable and a "decent" performer. Also keep in mind most who are looking for a cheap gaming pc arent gaming on a 30 inc lcd at ultra high res. They are more likely gaming at lower res which to a large extent negates SLI anyway.
Gateway has to up the anty- Now here we agree I think they have decided to try to compete on a higher level...
in other areas so numb minded people like you- Wow arent you nice, troglodyte...
will be like oooooooo 1 more gig of ram, -for Vista and especially gaming in Vista most "IT" pros would agree. Not that you would...
overclocked gimmicks. -Guess you have never EVER seen any reviews of the Overclocked or Superclocked 8800GT's (I have an EVGA Superclocked myself). FYI they do pretty good, and factory OC means you KEEP the Warranty! You know i thought dinosaurs like yourself were extinct, I remember years ago when the vast majority made all sorts of claims about overclocking, man how things have changed. Well maybe not in your opinion. Which you are free to have of course
You will have stability issues with Gateway if you add anymore hardware. WOW really? I would like to know how you can say that as fact when it SOUNDS so much like ones opinion???
I personally have a Superclocked 8800GT, Giagbyte P965-DS3 rev 2.0, Core 2 E6600 @ 3.2 GHZ, 3 SATA HARD Drives (400gig), 3 Dual Layer DVD Burners, usb mouse and keyboard all with a 430 Watt power supply, now of course its a GOOD brand not generic. Guess thats why it NEVER has ANY issues (runs 24/7). So I dont really believe your point is 100% accurate you could say the same about the "750" watt Oh and before you start screaming about its SLI approved or certified that doesnt mean all that much to the trained eye. More of a, how you say, marketing gimmick. Yeah thats it... lol
I am sure you disagree with all of this and Dell is uber I suppose. Please feel free to live in that bubble you are currently in. I just thought I would give 1 and only one shot at giving you something you havent seen I think... A different perspective. I tried to not be negative and tried to be mature. So unless you are 12 keep the "numb minded" remards to yourself. I just stated my opinion that there was another system that could easily have compared to that one for less money. Giving people options is a good thing, its what makes our economy grow. Have a great day!
You know what...forget it. You get what you pay for. GG go back to your MMO-- Sad dont be so CLOSED MINDED....
