Hardware Details 

 

DELL XPS 720 H2C Desktop 

  • Comes with factory-overclocked(1) Intel®  CoreTM 2 Extreme QX6700 quad-core processor, the XPS 720 H2C offers a massive performance leap over previous generations of single-core processors. Intel quad-core technology allows you to simultaneously create, share and enjoy rich media content, such as high-definition video, without compromising performance.
  • The Dell XPS 720 H2C Edition offers an innovative, two-stage cooling system that helps keep your processor cool, even when it's overclocked. The H2C hybrid solution combines a liquid radiator, a thermoelectric cooling module and control circuitry, optimizing CPU cooling with minimal power consumption. The result is a processor that stays cool(2) when it's overclocked.  
  • With the XPS 720, we’ve significantly boosted performance over the previous generation by offering up to 4GB(3) of Corsair®  high-performance memory. If you’re serious about power, this DDR2 memory solution operates at 800MHz, taking your gaming, multimedia and everyday PC experience to speeds you never imagined. Switch to a 64-bit operating system, and add even more horsepower with a staggering 8GB4 of dual-channel memory.
  • The XPS 720 H2C is built on NVIDIA® ’s nForceTM  680i SLI chipset, giving you the flexibility to load your system with dual high-performance NIVIDIA or ATI®  graphics cards. To support the additional power draw, the XPS 720 H2C includes a 1kW power supply, giving you the juice you need for a full-throttle graphics experience. For maximum effect, your XPS 720 H2C features the world’s first DirectX®  10 GPU – the NVIDIA GeForceTM  8800 GTX

 

1. Dell warrants the full functionality of your system at factory overclocked settings. Overclocking beyond factory settings may cause system instability and reduce the operating life of your system components. Dell does not provide technical support for any hardware or software issues arising from any third party application, such as NVIDIA nTune 5.0, used to enable overclocking.

2. Based on testing using a standard maximum power utility benchmark by Dell Labs in October 2006 on a pre-production XPS 710 with Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 processor, dual channel DDR2 533MHz 4x 256 MB memory, Dual NV 7950 GX2 graphics card, 4x 40GB HDD Raid 0. Actual performance will vary based on configuration, usage and manufacturing variability.

3. The total amount of available memory will be less than 4GB. The amount less depends on the actual system configuration. To fully utilize 4GB or more of memory requires a 64-bit enabled processor and 64-bit operating system.

4. Dell does not support any third party applications not installed by Dell in the Dell Factory, including NVIDIA's nTune utility.
