    Dell Inspiron 9300

    How is this for gaming, not hardcore gaming, I knew it depends on the upgrades but I upgraded the screen, memory and video and sound cards to the best Dell offers for this. I just wanted to know, not that I play a lot of games, but it's nice to know.

    It should be fine for games... as long as you aren't trying to set the maximum resolutions and maximum anti aliasing in your games.

    However personally, I probably would have bought the "upgrades" separately and installed them myself to the core system from Dell...

    But yeah... it should play games just fine with your upgrades.

    Agreed. The Geforce Go 6800 is a fairly decent GPU. Not quite the performance of the 6800 in my XPS Gen. 2 (which otherwise is nearly identical to the 9300), but it's still good.

    Of course, if you really want the maximum performance, you can actually install the new Geforce Go 7800GTX in there, but you'd need to purchase a new 130w power supply (same as on the XPS2/M170) and upgrade the 9300's BIOS.
