Hey guys, I'm looking into a couple Dell computers that I will probably get.
Check out this site first:

Out of all of them, which one is the best and most money efficient, that can run fast, has good graphics, and can run at a fast speed? I'm trying to stick to a low price, but which one can get the most for the buck?

Not bad. That's a lot of bang for a little buck. You are better off buying a used monitor anyways, like a used LCD. Much cheaper.
Well good luck with whatever computer setup you choose. I myself am runnin a 7 year old Dell, where back then, the monitor that came with the setup was about 12 inches diagonal, which is the screen I'm still lookin at now to this day :-5:
However, my computer runs so fast with NO lag at all, on loading programs, startup, shut down, whatever, and it's all thanks to this website.

Go to the memory upgrade section, just go step by step, put in your make, model, etc, and it chooses for you the best possible upgrade for your make and model. For me, going from 512 Ram to 2 Gigahertz of Ram, which is the most my computer has slots for, was only a little over $60. When it arrives, simply open the casing to your computer, insert and it's a simple plug and play.
Just something to consider if you want a faster computer but can't exactly afford it, or if you just want a faster computer, period. Good luck. :-2:
