How much is a machine of this spec worth, brand new, Dell branded?

* Intel Core-2 Duo E6400
* 2GB RAM
* 2 x 160GB (320GB) Hard Disk Drive
* DVD & DVDRW
* NVidia GeForce 7900GS 256MB
* Windows Vista Home Premium
* 12-months Warranty

Thanks

EDIt: Just specced this up on the Dell site and you cant select the exact HW spec but the closest one seems to be about £780inc but its not identical. Seem about right?

Yeah, that sounds about right based on what I paid recently through work.

Dr. Z · 10-08-2007, 19:07

Well if anyone wants them I have a "limitless" supply of these for ~£470.

110% legitimate stock from cancelled orders etc.

If a few people want one I might be able to get a volume discount too

Mark · 10-08-2007, 19:13

Nice...Tempting...I already have too many PCs.

Not bad price at all, I may get my sister to have a look. FYI there is a comparable system for about £600, but its quad core (albeit with a lesser x1300 card)

Even more tempting - not bothered about the x1300. Details please (for comparison purposes).

My cousin Dave called me just now asking about costs of a new PC, he'd been quoted some silly price from his local shop so I mentioned this - He seemed quite keen and will let me know over the weekend.

Thats peanuts for a quad core!!! With the raid 0 that'll absolutely fly, only slight upgrade would be the 2gb ram

Mark · 10-08-2007, 21:30

2GB is more than enough for me, even with Vista.

Hope that's not a time-limited offer, as I might have to ponder. I'd sell my Dual Xeon box to make room.

Thats exactly the units I am talking about

Run by two schoolfriends of mine and I used to be very heavily involved with it too

Obviously, go direct with them if you wish but if a couple of you are interested talk to me first and I might well be able to get it at a touch of "mates rates"...
