Dell XPS 8500 Specs vs Price....Good Deal?

[ethanz117]

Hi all. I just got a Dell XPS 8500 with the following specs:

Intel i5 3450 Ivy Bridge 3.1Ghz
8GB 1600Mhz RAM
1TB 7200RPM Hard Disk
460watt, PFC Power Supply
4 USB 3.0
6 USB 2.0
GeForce GT 640

all for $826.87 including tax+shipping. It will ship by 2 day for free (Dell Advantage) and I also got 5% off instantly through MPP. It also comes with a $200 eGift Card that I'll spend on the S2330MX Ultrathin monitor and Dell stock speakers. :lol:

So in all: Intel i5 3450, 8GB 1600mhz, 1TB 7200, USB 3.0, 460watt PFC PSU, GT 640, 23" Ultrathin HD monitor, and speakers for $826.87.
