Here’s the thing about product launch timing. When a company only gives a vague date like “H1” or “H2,” it almost always means the product will launch towards the rear of the relevant window. AMD repeatedly stated it would launch Polaris in H1 2016 a

8900-300x219.jpg

In terms of specs, the XPS 8900 is rocking a sixth generation quad-core 3.4GHz Intel Core i7-6700 processor, 16GB of DDR4 RAM (2133MHz), a discrete Nvidia GeForce GTX 745 graphics card (with 4GB of memory), a 1TB 7200RPM hard drive, a DVD drive, Bluetooth 4.0, and 802.11b/g/n/ac WiFi support.
A wired keyboard and mouse are included at no extra cost, so you’ll just need an HDTV or PC monitor to get going. This model uses both HDMI and DisplayPort, so it’ll work with many modern displays right out of the box. But if you need support for other connectors, you’ll be able to find adaptors on Amazon for only ten or fifteen bucks.
Windows 10 Pro (64-bit) comes installed on this machine by default, so you’ll benefit from the Cortana personal assistant, local Xbox One game streaming, the new Edge browser, and countless apps in the Windows Store. And thanks to the recent anniversary update, the overall experience of Windows 10 is even smoother.
The built-in graphics card will work fine with some games, but you’ll definitely want to invest in a better card if you’re interested in playing recent releases. The CPU and RAM in this model are superb, so a new graphics card (with a beefier power supply to support it) is the next logical upgrade. Nvidia and AMD both have some superb mid-range cards on the market now, but regardless of what you end up with, the availability of DirectX 12 and game DVR in Windows 10 can substantially improve your gaming experience.
If you want to expand more down the road, it’s dead simple with this model. Inside, it has three hard drive bays and four DIMM slots (with support for up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM). Even if you’d prefer not to open the case, the six USB 3.0 ports and four USB 2.0 ports allow for plenty of additional storage. Whether you’re looking to set up a media server or a handful of virtual machines, this PC is flexible enough to handle nearly anything you throw at it.
While this machine lists for $1249.99, Dell is currently selling it online for just $1099. And when you use coupon code “XPSDT779” during your checkout, you’ll only be paying $779 (plus any applicable taxes). And since the shipping is free, you’ll be saving even more when you order directly from Dell.
