Ultra-uber Quad-GPU Dell

[Choupolo]

I nearly laughed my ass off at this:

Dell XPS 600 Renegade

Dell partnered with nVidia to construct this quad-gpu 4.26GHz ultra-uber gaming PC, that was being demonstrated at CES this week. The machine has 4, yes 4 7800 gpus, a factory overclocked Intel Extreme cpu, and 2 150Gig 10k Western Digital HDs in Raid0. Apparently the demo was running CoD2 at 2560x1600 resolution on Dell's new 30" ultra res HD-LCD TV.

My first thoughts were...."BAAHAHAHAHA!" And then..."it's a Dell.. with flames on it!" Seriously though, the only thing you can do with it is play CoD2 at an unnecessarily high resolution on Dell's own TV cos that's likely the only compatible one. Plus how much is this thing going to cost?? Billionaire Michael Dell himself says its going to be a lot. And to make things worse it's probably going to have Dell's crap intrusive and restrictive software on it, making it as good as a 486.

So hands up, who wants one?

[mendel]

pick me, pick me
i want one :P



they just won't talk about the price :bucky!:
what's that thing going to cost?
4*7800= 4*450 = 1800
1 PD@4.26 = 999
2*150WD= 250
1 30" monitor = 999
unkown amount of ram
let's guess: 5000€?

Dell's crap intrusive and restrictive software

Just un-install it FFS! I use Dell where I work and they use excellent lead-free components and nice Intel components. I wipe their software off and put my own OS on via LanDesk PXE. Brilliant cost-effective computers.... I also use a Dell XPS notebook and it is fookin sweet let me tell you!

This PC and the screen will set you back about £4200.00 +VAT inc support options. But it is overclocked to the hilt and also covered by warranty on stock cooling!! LOL

[Choupolo]

Ur right...that needs to be some pretty good stock cooling! But if ur vouching for them GM then I'll give them a break. I guess the days of Dell's ecomomy (ie skimp on something somewhere) gaming PCs are over.

And good guess mendel! :P

Well I say stock cooling, but I really meant air-cooling, but it does look spookily similar to the cooling solution in my work PC.

Well if GH is giving one away.....I will HAVE IT! Otherwises fornicate no
