Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum and like it very much! I purchased a new Dell computer a few months ago, its my 2nd Dell computer. I read a lot of complaints about Dell on this forum. I'm truly sorry for all of you that have had bad and negative times with Dell. The truth of the matter is that there are good things about Dell.

The secret to buying from Dell is to customize your computer very well and research as many components simply buy going to their websites. For example I checked out the graphics card ATI Radeon 4870 1 gig and I saw that it was one of their top of the line graphics card. I play Crysis, Street Fighter 4 and all my other games very well. The games run very smoothly with excellent graphic detail. I also knew that most computer games now need at least 512MG graphic memory to run, and also knew that significant system memory may be allocated to support graphics, depending on system memory size and other factors. So what that means is that your windows OS will take a certain portion of memory from your graphics card.

Dell has changed the name of Studio XPS 435 to Studio XPS 9000. Now you can add the ATI Radeon HD 5870 1 GB GDDR graghics card instead of the OEM nVidia GTS 240 1024MB or the ATI Radeon HD 4350 512MB graphics cards.


I have to have a very good computer because I'm an internet psychic at www.keen.com/clairvoyant+christopher I make money with my computer. I also use Cacheman 7 which speeds and optimizes windows OS very well. http://cacheman.outertech.com to download the latest version of Cacheman. You can try it before you buy it.

I predict that this computer will last me at least 4 years and then I will consider buying the Alienware line of computers or I will build my own. I think that I got a good price and a good value from Dell.
 


That's very interesting!
 
Clair - what are you doing? Coming back here once a week to bump the thread by copying what someone wrote in an old post and typing an innocuous comment? Trying to keep the thread active for advertising purposes?

I am suprised you bother to come back after the other thread you started 2 weeks after this one to if you should buy alienware or build -and that after stating at the start of this one that the Dell should last you for four years. But I guess any charade to help your business right? Just keep fooling people into coming to your thread in hopes they become customers. Sad.
 




Geez Rocky, sounds like i got a fan... The only fan I want is the one that cools a n-force southbridge chip - never understood why that ran so hot compared to intels chipsets. I mean its not like the n-force 4 had to overclock is processor and you still couldnt touch it with out 3rd degree burns ( ok im exagerating )
 
If he was really clairvoyant, wouldn't he have known the discussion was going to turn into a feud, and not made his original post?

I'm just saying


 


RockyJohn you need to get a life and maybe get laid. You're still trying to give me a hard time. I feel sorry for you. Something is wrong with you mentally.
 


I can't be clairvoyant when I'm typing on a internet site! People, places & things have to be present in order for my clairvoyance to work.
 

You did not dispute or respond to the concerns I raised about your bumping this thread which contains your free advertising, therefore it must be true. An let's see - your two new posts today occurred exactly one week after the last prior post - gee you bumped it again, 3 weeks in a row, again validating my concern that you are simply trying to get free advertising.

Instead you chose to make a very viscious and childish personal attack. It is easy to see who is the one with the issues.

And in your next post you state "I can't be clairvoyant when I'm typing on a internet site! People, places & things have to be present in order for my clairvoyance to work. " If this is true, how do you provide your "clairvoance services" over the internet to people who are not present? Now I am really confused. Uh oh, I left you an opening there for snappy comeback about my being confused - but my confusion is only about how your statement directly conflicts with the services you purport to offer.

I know this is not a forum for discussing charlatan practices but since you turned it into an free advertising source to profer your questionable services I think some counterpoint is appropriate.

Moderator - can we please get this thread closed please to avoid the continued use of this thread to advertise questionable services and prevent the OP from making more viscious and childish personal attacks?
 


I can tell that your jealous of my psychic gifts. And you can't believe how well my post has had a very high response rate. You're jealous of this as well.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY POST, THEN WHY RESPOND TO IT AT ALL! I'M NOT RESPONDING TO YOUR COMMENTS BECAUSE IT'S A WASTE OF MY TIME. YOU MAKE A CAREER OF HARRASING ME, MAKING UP LIES & SAYING THINGS THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE. And last but least I do phone consultations, not email psychic readings because they are not accurate at all. The company that I work with is a psychic internet company, which means that they do all advertising via the internet.


 
Guys..

Come on, if you lot want to fight go to Afghanistan and let of some steam there..

If not go and buy the new call of duty game and play it..

Really, you guys need to take a look at what you two are doing and take a chill.

You agree to disagree.

Clairyvoyant... I said about the personal attacks and you do another one...

Does it matter if he gets laid or not.. Thats not something i would expect to get from a Clairvoyant at all..

clairvoyants are supposed to be sympathetic, understanding and professional which in your comments you seem to have neither.. youve ranted wether some one is gay and now wether he has sex or not.. Why do you have such a hang up on this and bring this into the issue..

I side with rockyjohn on this one and your out of order if you dont mind me saying.

This is a computer forum for people with genuine issues and wanting genuine answers. Do this and get your answers - not to wind people up.

It is not here for personal attacks.

 

Wrong. You have no gifts so I have nothing to be jealous of. To even assume I might be jealous proves you have no gifts. Just another petty attack.


Just proves the two points I have been making all along - you are only using this forum to advertise yourself and your repeated bumps are for this same purpose.



I choose not to sit by and watch this forum be misused for advertising - especially of charlatan practices. You are taking up the time of good people looking for help or trying to provide it. Further, I choose not to be a silent victim of your vicious personal abuse.


Lie. You have been responding to my comments. Why state such an obvious lie?


And more bogus and viscious attacks. First, a few forum responses do not a career make. Second I have not been harrassing you but only pointing out to everyone your motives - confirmed by yourself in previous posts and the statement above - and defending myself from your abuse. Instead of making viscious and generalized personal attacks, I challenge you to identify one specific lie I made or one thing that does not make sense. Please back up your general attacks with a single specific case. It is easy to see who is the one telling lies here and it is not me.

It is also easy to see who is doing the harrassing here. Did I ever say anything to you like the abuse you threw at me with:
RockyJohn you need to get a life and maybe get laid. You're still trying to give me a hard time. I feel sorry for you. Something is wrong with you mentally.

And others in earlier posts have stated how your comments don't make sense and you don't even understand what you are talking about on video cards. You were just misleading people about that as well and I tried not to let your misleading comments lead others astray. The purpose of this forum is to provide accurate helpful information not to mislead with bogus attacks on the products of good companies.


The quote we were addressing was your statement "People, places & things have to be present in order for my clairvoyance to work." First off, clairvoyance does not ever work. Second, people on the phone are not "present".

Moderator, can we please get this thread closed to stop these continued bogus and viscious attacks.
 



Er......

No it doesnt actually work everywhere in the world.

I dont know what we got here in the UK but that dont work either.. And I cant call it capitalism. more like a complete f@~K up.


At least you got rid of Bush, we still got poxy Gordon Brown who just wont leave 🙁
 

I am surprised you once again admit that you are using this forum for personal gain even though it means abusing the time of the good people coming here seeking help or to give it.


Wow another personal attack. This I am not surprised about.

When you last said that I was making up lies and saying things that don't make sense, I asked you to point out one specific example where I had done that. Of course you could not and so would not respond directly to the issue. Again instead of providing the least bit of support for your attack you choose to make another personal attack. This has been the case all along. I point out your errors and you repond not about the substance, you cannot because you are wrong, so you try to hide behind making bogus personal attacks.

Just like you have been doing from the start. Near the top of the thread, you made bogus statements about certain new video cards based on the nVidia reference design and you identified several articles that you claimed supported those statements. I read those articles and found no support. I asked simply asked, several times, that you specifically identify where the articles supported your claim. You could not and so would not respond to the request, instead you starting making personal attacks on me to hide you had no answer, just like you are doing now.

I hope readers can see that I have tried to address the bogus attacks made by Clair - first against certain nVidia cards and then to defend myself. Despite his personal attacks on me I have tried to stay focused on the issue and only ask Clair to prove his claims - first against nVidia and then against myself - but he refuses to address the issue because he has no support for his claims - instead he just responds with another personal attack to hide behind.
 



I think he secretly likes you rocky :)
 


Why would say that HellBoy. I'm not even or ever going to respond to RokyJohn's comments again. I don't like him at all. So my post will soon go away, because in the past I would respond over & over to his comments. But now I realize that RockyJohn feeds off me by responding to his ridiculous comments. If you're implying that I'm gay I'm not.
 



No , and we have been there before clairvoyant.. All because you like some one of the same sex doesnt mean you are gay does it.
 


Thank you. Then I trust we will not ever see any more comments from you here again and and I can stop defending myself from your abusive attacks.




No, the problem. Clair, is that you never did respond to the legitimate questions I asked and instead made abusive attacks that I chose to defend myself against. It is just utter foolishness of you say to I feed off you. If you go back in look you will see that each time I was either asking you to provide specifc information to try to support your claims - all proved bogus by your inability and refusal to respond in substance rather than with the abusive personal attack - or responding to defend myself from your attack. The threads are clear - you were the abusive attacker keeping this going - with your attacks and returning once a weak to bump the thread and keep it active for commercial reasons. And you did not respond to the substantive issues - about the nVidia cards or your viscious attacks.

Just like this commment where all I am doing is responding to your attack. Or just like the last one, and ones before that where I was either responding to your attacks or repeated misuse of the forum.

And I did not once make the kind of derogatory personal comments like you made about me. So your attempt to play innocent does not wash. I am the victim here and you have been the abuser. And all the people who spent time reading and responding to your commercial thread are also your victims.

But I do thank you for your word not rto espond again which I take to mean the abuse will stop.
 
Dell is ramping up performance with the Studio XPS 435.

Over the last several years, Dell has diversified its computer offerings in an attempt to better meet the needs of its customers. What started with Inspiron and XPS desktops is now Inspiron, Vostro, Studio, XPS, Studio XPS, and Alienware. Confusing? Maybe, but the increased number of brands has allowed for some powerful desktops whose looks are beyond the classic Dell cases.

The newest offering in the desktop market from Dell is the Studio XPS 435. The Core i7-based system does have some impressive options, although it is not yet for sale. Users can customize the 435 with Core i7 and Core i7 Extreme processors, which come on an X58 motherboard. What really separates this new offering from existing Studio XPS desktops are looks, memory, graphics, and storage. The 435 can take up to 24 GB of triple channel DDR3 memory as well as up to 4.5 terabytes of hard drive space. Compared to the 12 GB of RAM and 1.28 TB (640 x 2) of storage in existing offerings, this newest Studio XPS is a cut above other Dell desktops in its product line, offering more than enough storage and RAM for any Photoshop or Avid buff.

Whats impressive is that it actually turns on for 5 minutes..... Shame about the badge though.
 


You are so right, because my Dell Studio 435 has such great performance. I have 6GB of memory. And the computer runs fast!
 


Gordon Brown doe not sound like a good person.
