256MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon™ X800 XT

Dell has apparantly updated their new Home computer line ups, and I must say they look pretty slick.

ok can i just buy the x800xt or do i have to pay for the rest of that load too? hahaha

^^^ liekly the whole system - this is how intel and other companies get things into the main market - give it to OEM's in their systems and of course every joe blow who knows nothing will go buy one for an incredibly over priced amount

i sure hope Dell has better cooling in their new systems!!!

When will these boards be released to the general public?

Looks to me like you can order them now. Was looking on Pricewatch. I don't know how many are in stock. I've heard some people talk about having to have them back-ordered. But they are available.

^^ yes i would think very very soon as the pcie mobo's have been out for a while and i doubt people who are buying pcie boards want the x300 or x600 cards :)

I orederd an Asus board but I dont want a X600 I am waiting for a X800 PCI express.

I really hope ATI and NVidia get their acts together with their high-end PCIe video cards because not too many people are going to be building systems based on 925/915 chipsets without high-end X800 or 6800 graphics cards available. Intel will not be happy.

Dell claims their new XPS Gen. 3 series has much improved cooling.......
