Hey all,
First time Dell Customer

How are there PC's? We just ordered my first, a Dimension 830, I beleive it
was....

It'll have an AIW 64MB DDR Radeon 9000 PRO Card. My current machine
has a 7500 64MB AIW card bought last year. Am I going to see any difference
in performance? Any pro's and cons between the two cards?

The MB is going to be a Pentium 4 2.6 GHZ, with 512 MB DDR RAM.
And Windows XP Proffesional, with Audigy Live 5.1 as the Sound Card
from Creative Labs...


Thanks

the AIW has the TV stuff, the 9000 Pro is a generation newer. Not too much
faster though, 40-60% maybe...

I love the P4, hate the Audigy ;-)

(P4 from 2.6 to 3.25, like most users ;-) )
 
Audigy2 is a good card tho and since CL plainning to put out slightly newer
version real soon, personally not interested as only a few changes as far as
I can see, the regular A2's will most likely drop in price. To be honest tho
kind of confuse thought the Live 5.1 cards and Audigy cards were seperate
critters and a generation apart, never seen an Audigy-Live before
personally.
