I installed my first game which was a very graphically demanding game and viala worked a breeze. Turned graphics right up and everythign was great! NO laggy graphics whatsoever. I would have to say it is a great computer if you are the type of person that loves to game and does not know much about computers. If you know quite a bit about computers and can build you own, then by all means get out there and build you own pc!! Buying a prebuilt computer will always be more expensive. If you have the money this computer is well worth the cash.
The computer itself looks impressive. The lights on it are cool to show off. Also, if you are one who does not liek noise then this is for you. Very quite computer.
I have had no reliability problems with it. If i did Dell's waranty would cover it. Luckily i have not had to claim anything.

Advantages: Buckets of Power Disadvantages: Expensive, Big
Wow, what a powerful mechine. I have owned my XPS 600 for almost a year now, and straight from the box I was amazed how powerful it was. And nothing has changed. The graphics are amazing especially if you run it in SLI. The nVidia motherboard s great; plenty of space for all of my cards. With room for 3 hard drives it has plenty of room to expand. The toolles access is a nice touch too. And once you open this thing up you realise just how over-engineered ...
