    I'm starting to love your replies... They make for good comedy!

    I play plenty of good looking games, quite well.

    1920 x 1080 IS a TV resolution... 1920 x 1200 is not.

    2560 x 1600 isn't at all overrated. The majority of people just can't afford them.

    Your last line makes no sense... I state that my custom build will still be playing games after your Dell dies, and you come back with that line? :D

    So you go from disagreeing with me, to agreeing with me, with a secondary argument... Man kid, you really need to learn when you've lost an argument and give up. You ask for help, don't listen to it, then complain why you're right when you're clearly wrong. It's comical to everyone reading this thread but you.

    Really... Just quit replying, you're making yourself look like a fool.

    Enjoy your Dell.

    You will wish that you had listened to the advice in this thread when in about 1 year your motherboard fries right after the warranty runs out, and your stuck with a paperweight that dell will charge 300 dollars+ for a replacement motherboard. I built my first computer at 16, while i was 15 i was going to build a custom pc but parents ended up purchasing a dell laptop. after 1 year the motherboard fried, 3 years and 4 replacement keyboards and the thing is still a pos.

    Dells quality is very lacking, i work for a pc repair company and dell is one of THE WORST computer manu. i have ever seen. Bad capacitors, bad motherboards, junk power supplies, junk video cards. Have fun on your new dell.

    Gamergod, you've got to be doing this intentionally at this point, multiquoting isn't too hard.

    You have much to learn, young gamergod05.

    To be honest, I think you're beyond helping at this point. Come back in a few years when you have your own money to spend and a bad experience with a Dell PC behind you. You really need to learn that the quality of a system isn't measured by how expensive the graphics cards inside are, nor how many of them there are. It depends on the quality of each and every component, how well balanced and matched the components are, and the care and attention that is put into building it. That can only come from spending the time and effort to build it yourself. I hope you enjoy your Dell, but I really doubt you will.

    Oh, and if you still refuse to use the multi-quote feature, then for the love of God please edit your posts! That is what the button is there for :nono:

    This thread would probably only be 2 pages long if it was cleaned up properly.

    Cos people will buy them for multimedia PCs.

    1920x1200 is the proper PC format (arguably it should be 1920x1440 since that's 4:3)

    This is a typical child's mind set "It's a super duper GTX285 and I have 2 so i'm better than you"

    Do you know what make the motherboard is in your computer? What kind of OCing ability does it have?

    What make is your hard drive? How are the read/write speeds?

    What make is your RAM? What's it's frequency and timings?

    Performance isn't about who has the highest number on their components, or the most of something?

    But then you are just a child, so you haven't grown up enough yet to understand that. :rolleyes:

    You are starting to show your immaturity a little, trying to argue that you have an awesome pc because of the numbers. But the parts themselves are not high quality, dell is trying to get as much profit as possbile. If you had followed Kiytan's advice you would have a pc that FAR outstrips your current one.

    But good luck to you, I hope you enjoy your pc, people here are just arguing with you because they all know that you have missed out on a rewarding and educational experience. But when its your own money that you have to work for believe me you will actually stop and think about it.

    Crysis? my 260+ can run it at very high at 1080p.
    for your previous comment on 30" being overrated. Have YOU been to a design studio, they are everywhere!

    Honestly, I can say anything that hasn't been said here.
    You asked for help, but didn't listen. You tried to argue and lost horribly.
    Now you are going to be conceited and rude.

    Please, clean up your act, or reduce posting(or stop completely).

    At this point, I'm thinking OP would be better served by paying more attention to school work than gaming. Get some punctuation, grammar and construction to written communications. In addition, exercises in critical thinking might help.
