yeah, he is right... it might just be a misprint... try calling them if you really want to make sure... otherwise, 7900GS is a decent card and it should be able to handle most games fine though im not sure about highest settings... but then you can always change the video card into something better later on...

FYI, I just got my receipt from Dell and the GPU reads, HMGA14. When I look that up it shows 7900GS, no Go. So I should be okay!

Like Kornowski u will be happy with that rig! Show us a display when its up and running
I will be happy with the build? I'm confused
It does looks like a great build though!

The 7900GS is a very good card, I can play all of the games out not on FULL settings, no problem

Yeah, Didn't really help dude, He's ordered it already, and anyway, it's a great computer that he's got himself, especially for the price.

Don't like Dells do you Chris

i have 2 dell pcs and there nothing but trouble ( i dident choose them ) they are a pain to change anything in the OS they come with can only be use on that rig (if you do upgrade it knows so when you reformat you have to put the original hardware back in for the os to install )
they have s**t loads of trail software on them when they come and you would be better to just build one for yourself .

again don't use DELL
