The path to the Dell XPS PC that?s on the desk in front of me has been long. Riyad first sighted it out at E3 back in May and came back to the office raving about the new case that Dell had chosen for its latest XPS machine. Dell did start shipping the system in July in the US, powered by an Intel Pentium D based Extreme Edition CPU. Now Core 2 Duo is here and the XPS 700 we have been sent is powered by an E6700 Core 2 Duo running at 2.66Ghz.

After waiting a lifetime-and-a-half for Dell?s latest desktop rig to arrive (apparently there were cooling problems with the motherboards), gamers in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) can now run the most intensive games and 3D applications with the availability of the Intel Core 2 Duo (up to 2.66GHz E6700) and Extreme (2.93GHz X6800) processors on Dell?s XPS 700 (from £1199) desktop PC.

Dell has done what many thought would be beyond it - created a decent gaming system that hardcore enthusiasts would be happy to have on their desk. The engineers have nailed the industrial design and the core internal design, but the guys haven't quite managed to get the components and the pricing right. But for all our ragging on the component specifications, Dell has really got the core of this system spot on, and for that it earns our Recommended award. However, we hope Dell takes our comments on board and sorts future machines out with the kind of components that will really make the Core 2 Duo processor shine - and at the right price.
