Great product., 07/11/2009

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT REGISTERING FOR WINDOWS 7 UPGRADE. IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE AND BOUGHT YOURS FROM WAL-MART READ BOTTOM:
I did alot of shopping around and was going to build my own custom pc till I found this one. I couldnt have built a computer and got everything this one has for the price.
The 24' monitor is $300 to $350 alone and the picture quality is amazing. The triple core processor runs at 2.1 GHz and is back by the maxed supported 8 GBs of ram so you dont to worry about it running slow.
The ATI RadeonÂ® HD 3200 integrated graphics is only 256MB but was able to hold up to my most demanding game Fallout 3 set on the highest graphic settings.
The 640GB hard drive is big enough for most, but if not there is another bay for upgrading it.
The slim case is nice. Its not very wide but just as tall as most mid towers. If you are looking at upgrading alot down the road you may want a bigger tower as well.
There are 4 usb slots in the back and two in the front. The mouse, keyboard and speakers take up 3 of them. All in all i would recommend to anyone.

IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT WINDOW 7: If you are haveing trouble registering your qualifing Dell pc you bought from Wal-Mart it may be the same problem i had. When Wal-Mart buys computers from Dell the date of purchase show up at Dell as the day Wal-Mart bought it, not the customer this may make it show up as not eligible for upgrade, so all you have to do is call Dell's tech support ask them to change the invoice date on your pc to the day you bought it which should be after June 26th. you will have to have proof that you bought it on a qualifing date. I hope my 5 days of phone calls helps someone!!

Not the best, maybe a good deal, 07/27/2009

Computers are difficult to buy. Substitutions of lower quality parts can be made can be made in many areas of a system. Almost no one has the expertise to tell you where this really makes a difference.

Ok to begin with the computer has an AMD X3 central processing core with three central processing units. This is unusual. It turns out these chips are essentially defective X4 quad core units, where one of the processors didn't work and is disconnected. Some people claim (I'm sure AMD does) that the fourth core in a quad core is almost never used anyway and that a tri-core ought to outperform an Intel dual core or an AMD X2. Maybe this is true but who knows.

I went to the Dell site and tried to reproduce the system to see what Dell would charge me directly. It turns out the X3 distributed with this unit (the 8450) isn't used by Dell. They use a slightly faster 8650. I don't think this is a big deal especially. The difference in price between the units (from AMD) is only $20.

Everything else I could get (memory, monitor, speakers, etc.) from Dell. So buying this unit from Walmart, minus the cost of the better processor, saves you about $160. Dell does throw in a few extras (online storage) but the Walmart price is still a deal.

Unfortunately, in the past week I have been having problems with the system I have. Dell includes VGA and DVI cables to connect the monitor to the system. However the PC has only VGA and HDMI connectors. I bought an HDMI cable to connect the monitor (the monitor has an HDMI slot). However the display shrinks to about 80% of the size of the monitor when the HDMI cable is used. Further the HDMI hookup sometimes produces nothing but a black screen. The VGA connection works all right but the display quality is not as good as with the HDMI cable.

Also the sound system only works occasionally. Sometimes the speakers work and sometimes they don't. Sometimes the headphones can be used and sometimes they don't work. I am waiting now for a Dell technician to arrive (in the next 10 min) to replace the "mother board" for the the third time in five days.

Great Product, 06/29/2009

This computer is great. The large display is great for watching videos and playing games. It also looks good. The CPU itself is sleek and does not stick out like a sore thumb. It has everything I could ever need in a computer and a lot more. Setup was the easiest. I was playing games in 15 minutes. I researched lots of other computers and this one had the most features and at a great price. Highly recommend!

Its OK. Having problems with Windows. Keeps saying I don't have a genuine copy of Windows. But that's not Walmarts fault. Is it? All and all it's good.
