Well I spoke with Dell people several times on the exact components of their build. Then I compared it to what I can build with the same money. It's a pretty big gap.

The card will be the 8800 gts 320 mb. The chip will be an e6750. Motherboard will probably take a lot of consideration. Rest looks pretty straight forward. Exception being the case. How do you pick a good case? I don't care about flashy neon lights or cool looks. Good ventilation and room for components is what I want.

Will I need an extra fan in this thing or is the cpu cooler and psu fan adequate? No overclocking on this.
