I've got a spare 6800. Its less than a year old (replaced by dell) and does ~4400 3dmarks05. Not *far* from a 6800u. Hasn't been used for the past few months, but it works. Interested? If so, PM me.

450/1250 is pretty good, well done. 3367 (3dmark06) is low, you should be looking at around 3.8-4k depending on your cpu. I got artificially low scores (3.3k) when I used most 9x.xx series drivers. Installing dell official 8x.xx series...

Just so long as its more stable than the pos xbox 360 power supply Mmmm... methinks my next gaming computer will be a desktop or HTPC. More portable

Slide some lead between the magnet sensor? Than you can leave it closed and the play button will (hopefully) work.

I put a 1gb/667 in mine. Why? Well timings are the same as the stock Dell at 533mhz. And if I stick it into a newer core duo/C2D, it won't force the machine to downclock its ram. So for the future I'd get some 667 or 800 (if the...

So you can't buy the 1720 and just stick in a HDD. You also need the caddy from somewhere? Thats low dell... thats really low.

People here give the 8600M GT a pretty hard time (because dell replaced the 7900gs with it), but its not *such* a bad card. My brother has one in his Macbook Pro. Overclocked lightly it scores 4200+ 3dmarks06. The problem is the...

I used a 60w with my 9300 (m170 bios). The graphics card slows. The cpu does something pretty funny, the fsb goes wierd and starts under-clocking to anywhere from 200-407mhz. NHC reported my cpu as running at 300mhz for a while, until I...

Mmm dell parts aren't that expensive. Well.. they are expensive for what they are but all spare parts are ****ing expensive. Any closed system will rape you with repair/replacement costs. Think cars, servers, macs, laptops. Anything that...
