Dell XPS 420

By Stu_Web314

Great PC for everything and is dead quiet, the only noise is hard drive unless i put my head next to unit.

Everything except for the con below!

Locked BIOS --> The only reason this got an 8 and not a 10. Also had Dell replace a previous model and there Indian call centres are terrible to deal with.

I think this computer is great, £800 for great PC with 750GB memory and a 20" 1600X1280 screen!

Am running Cod4 on full graphics with no lag ; Nice looking case and I find it easy to carry ; The sidescreen IS usefull for changing songs mid game without having to minimize the game or use "skip a track" on the keyboard

A little bit loud ; Sometimes freezes for 4 seconds when I start up Windows Media Player for the first time

By lcwolfman

I have had this system for a little while now.. Working working PC with plenty of power.. Had to reformat the day I received it due to constant crashing but after that everything worked fine..

Plenty of power.. Nice case design.. Easy access to and while inside case.. Plenty of port options.. Attractive manual case..

Case design invites dust easily.. Once formatted you lose the only good apps for the sideshow feature Dell does not offer them for download or on CD..

By Beejay

Had mine for four months now and it is fantastic. Couldnt fault anything and its WEI rating is higher than machines $3000 more!

Fast, nice design, not overly noisy like some say (they must be very picky)

nothing I have found yet, most small problems that occur are from Vista, not the actual computer.
