ET deals: Save $250 on a Dell XPS 8900 quad-core desktop PC
For a limited time, Dell is offering up a 26% discount on the new XPS 8900 desktop PC. With a brand new Skylake CPU, incredibly fast DDR4 memory, and plenty of room for expansion, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better PC with an asking price this low.
- (List price: $949.99 — Coupon code: 50OFF699)
In terms of specs, the XPS 8900 is rocking a sixth generation quad-core 3.4GHz Intel Core i7-6700 processor, 8GB of DDR4 RAM (2133MHz), a discrete Nvidia GeForce GT 730 graphics card (with 2GB of memory), a 1TB 7200RPM hard drive, a DVD burner, Bluetooth 4.0, and 802.11b/g/n WiFi support.
By default, this configuration comes with Windows 10 Home (64-bit) installed, so you’ll benefit from the new features in the latest operating system out of Redmond. The Cortana personal assistant and a dedicated Xbox app are definitely nice additions, but this OS really shines if you’re focused on gaming.
The GeForce GT 730 that comes with this machine will work fine with plenty of games, but you’ll probably want to invest in a newer card if you’re interested in getting high end performance on relatively recent releases. The CPU and RAM in this model are already pretty phenomenal, so a new GPU is probably the only upgrade worth making any time soon. And regardless of which card you end up with, the availability of DirectX 12 and game DVR in Windows 10 will substantially improve your gaming experience.
Ordinarily, this machine sells for upwards of $950, but Dell is currently selling it directly for just $749.99. Apply coupon code “50OFF699” during checkout, and the price will drop down to $699.99 (plus any applicable taxes). And since the shipping is free, you’ll be saving even more.
