The bottom line: The retail version of Dell's Studio XPS 8000 desktop might lack some of the charm of its direct-from-Dell counterpart, but its strong price-performance offering makes it easy to overlook the minor cosmetic deficiencies. That and its admirable power consumption make this system an impressive all-purpose midrange desktop.

It should be fine for most mainstream PC titles, at least those that are currently available."

For the very price-performance conscious, both Velocity Micro and Asus offer more competitive PCs in this price range, but we still find the Dell appealing because of its good looks."
