If you get a new high end graphics card, don't buy the type that vents heat internally, like my GTX 580 Twin Frozer II. The XPS can only take a 80mm fan on the back which may not be enough. My GPU hits 98° C (with the case closed) and case temperature puts the CPU as risk.
far out im from new zealand and i have the same computer from dell. mine is 3Gb ram and a 500Gb hard drive but its alot different inside than urs. the motherboard is black with Nvidia on it, very nice and fast tho
You can upgrade it BUT only with a DELL compatible PSU. So if you have the 375w PSU you can only upgrade to the 425w psu dell offers. There is also a site pcpower(dot)com which sell dell compatible PSU's right now. They only have a 500w PSU that is compatible with the XPS 420/430. Hopefully they will come out with high rated ones in the future.
i just bought a xps 420 my final bill was 2400 bucks but i got alot of diffrent shit in mine i got a blue ray player and a 27 inch screen and bose speakers but i would deff buy one for all u guys looking for a new computer
Great video. I'm playing on getting this system for xmas. I'm glad you showed the layout of the computer. I was wondering a few things and you answered some questions for me.

Is it true that you can't upgrade the power supply in this computer?
