my dell xps 710 cost £1700 on ebay brand new bloke selling says it was worth £3k, motherboard failed after 3 years and dell also replaced power supply, then 300gb harddrive needed replacing, then cheap plastic dvdrom flaps broke and dell refused to replace, a month before my 4yr warranty ended speakers/subwoofer needed replacing due to cracking sounds, now 4.5 yrs since i bought it the 2nd motherboard has failed again ! dell cant supply this motherboard so ill never ever buy dell again !
i bought one just like this, but really wanted a black tower so I bought one on ebay and swapped the guts. i know use the silver tower for my keyboard lol
lol this is a real nice pc but to many problems over the few years i had almost everything in it had to be replaced at some point motherboard, graphics card twice im getting a new comp but if i find another graphics card cheap ill fix it up but sadly this thing seems to break down every couple of months for me :(
My cousin and i both bought the same computer last year, and my pc's mb burned out a month after and luckily it was under warranty but i have had to change it for serveral time for the last 2 years!! my cousin;s just burned out yesterday and he doesnt have warranty any more.... This seems to happen to all the 710 series!! IT COST TOO MUCH TO BUY AND TOO MUCH TOO FIX.. its crap!! lost respect for dell
Does this machine still run, I bought mine about a month before you posted this and my motherboard died. Been reading about mobo failures on this system and want to know how prevalent it is.
Thanks, I appreciate the response. My specs are pretty basic compared to yours-- 750 kw PSU, 1.86 GHZ core 2 duo, single 7900gs, 2gigs Ram, Windows XP/ Vista home edition/ dual boot configuration. Thanks again for responding, got a new mobo and I'm up and running again.
rated #5 in gaming comps. i prefer custom built like i have. with my quad core processor, and my grforce 295 GTX graphics card. same price as ur comp for those two items, but also worth every penny XD. No lag and ultimate graphics.
MAN,i really like the comp but PLZ dont put it on the floor it is to AWESOME for that! and the carpet have alot of static that can burn it out! i did that before with 2 compter and the same thing happened to both of them! good thing they was old !!!!ROFL
argh!my mum bought this to go in her house and i said id be around for the day to collect it and set it up, when te guy came he helped me bring the boxes in, the 7 fairly large boxes and 1 massive box clogged the hall way i managed to get them open and the contents took over the living room. 4 hours later when my mum got home, i still handt finishd setting it up, then the CPU fan didnt work and we had to get a brand new one and start again!
well a very powerfull monster and there was no monitor included right??(well i just like the dell 720 better but the dell xps 720 h2c is way overpirced
I have a question can someone please awnser me! Ok i'm goin to get a Dell XPS 710 now on their mother boards say if i get one with 2 gigs of ram, are Dells motherboards capable of allowing me to add another 2 gigs so I have 4 gigs?
I've had mine a few months now & I love it. Very fast with 4gig 800mhz memory! Put a 40" 1080 tv on mine. I put vista ultimate 64bit on, but dell are to slow with software & updates. Have fun. Chantelle xx
Mine should be here soon, Im so hyped about it, I have been wanting a good pc to run bf2142 and bf2 and all those other nice games...how big is that monitor?
fasstang87 could you please post some gameplay footage (with current camera) of your new xps 710? I'm so eager to see it's performance in action and is planning to buy the new XPS 720 soon. Thanks!

Is it like extremely loud when running with all the fans. When playing games?
Is the hard drive noisy or will it run silently?
