New Dell XPS 8300 with i7-2600

I am back with my new pc. My old 2007 PC is starting to slow me down, especially when i multitask. If i talk about the old pc peformance in editing video and 21MP pictures, i will

 

But still, I tried to live with it until the new super i7-2600 processor came out. It is faster yet cheaper in comparison with the previous intel i7-975 which cost a bomb. 

This is when i make my choice to get one, if i dont get it now, then i will have to wait for the next generation again? I also need a PC at home, so the old PC still get a home. Anyway, I need it to get my income tax rebate. 

If i buy a pc now, with so many choices, which one should i buy? Buy the most expensive one? haha...i will advise to buy one with can last u for another 5 years without slowing u down again. 

So, after some stupid analyzing on my own (with little brain activity, becoz if i use my more brain power, i will tell myself to wait for another 2 years),

I settle with the Dell XPS 8300 which comes with

Intel Core i7-2600 processor

8GB 1333MHz SDRAM

1TB 7200rpm harddisk

1GB ATI Radeon HD 5870

 If u can see from the chart above, the new intel i7-2600 with the price of $295 yet with the CPUMark of 8932 looks like a bargain right? It is the top 9 fastest consumer PC in the world..DOnt play play. Comparing with my old AMD Athlon X2 4800 with CPUMark of 1258, it is like comparing Lexus and Proton Saga.

 

This fcuking monster churns out gaming index 7.8 of the total of 7.9. What else i want?

The speed of multitasking are amazing, with the Windows Experience Index almost full, i will get all the Experience that i want, until one day i change my harddisk to SSD. Haha...
