Default Re: Confused Inspiron 530, 531 and 530s

Hi kdee,

I think the Inspiron 530 Evalue system D025010 (3rd one down in the list) will suit your needs perfectly and also offer you the ability to upgrade the graphics card in the future if the need arises, i.e if you decide you would want to play cutting edge 3d games.

The Inspiron 530s is a slimline machine and would therefore limit future graphics card upgrades while the AMD processors used in the Inspiron 531 do not offer the performance of the Intel Core 2 Duo processors used in the Inspiron 530.

When you are configuring the system on the Dell website there is an option for a wireless networking card and also options for speakers, although these options would take you slightly over your budget of £400.

If you need any more advice please ask.
