| superbuddha's Full Review: Dell Dimension L500c |
This PC is a celeron with an Intel motherboard using the 810 chipset. It usually costs under $1000 w/o the monitor. This is the economy Dell PC, and if you screw up and don't configure it, you'll end up with a 4.3 gig HD, 64 megs of RAM, and an integrated sound card. Although it may have a decent 433 mhz system chip in it, the video subsystem typically leaves much to be desired, because the 810 chipset uses system RAM to complement the 4 meg integrated video card. So gamers beware (you can't over-clock dells too!!). If you start adding the nice accessories, you start to pay way more. So might as well go with a better system.
