Dell PC for the Patzer

Posted by GilaChess
September 23, 2007

I used Dell’s online “customise” tool to see how much would a Dell PC cost with the configuration I had in mind.

I chose the Dell 530s as it looks good so I chose that as the basic system to customise.

In the end, the total cost is still a little bit high at RM 3,329.00.

Anyway, I can wait a little longer as I can’t afford it yet. Perhaps by December’s PC Fair the price for the same configuration will drop below RM 3000.

Here’s the full configuration I chose:-
