I have just bought a new Dell Dimension 5150.
It has a P4 640 3.2GHZ HT, 1Gig of DDR2 533MHZ (2X 512DIMMS), 256MB ATI X600SE HYPERMEM PCI-E 16X, AND A 250GIG SATA HD. I do more web development then design, but I would like something to be able to handle my hobby in 3D. I can see that more RAM is always a good idea, but I'm more curious about this ATI card. I cannot find any reviews on it, so I'm concerned that it might be a lemon. The new system isn't here yet, so I can't say for sure what it's like. I'm also curious how Eovia products will operate on Windows Media Edition. thanks for you opinions,

Shaun McKinnon
