This is a more powerful computer than we normally see in deals, but if you`re
looking for a computer with some serious crunching power, this may be your
ticket. Next month (Nov 17th to be specific), Intel is dropping the price
of their P4 Xeon processors by over 20% (the 2.6Ghz one will be just $339).
Also, Dell sells the VRM that you would need to buy to make a second processor
work through their spares program for just $25! For your reference, Compaq
charges $149 for the VRM for their equivalent model (EVO W8000 workstation).
That means, you can use a standard P4 Xeon processor with this computer instead
of having to pay the ridiculous OEM pricing for the Xeon/VRM bundle. The
Precision 530 comes with one of the most intelligent clamshell case designs available for
efficient cooling. This monster comes with a stout 460 watt power supply, dual
32-bit and 64-bit (66Mhz!) PCI buses, FireWire & USB from the front panel, and
can support up to 4GB of memory! Once you go dual processor, you never want to go back.</p>
