good media pc?

Looking at buying the following to use as a media pc and a few games such as pro evo 6.

Spotted the one below on dell outlet


Dimension 9150 Viiv Pentium D 945 Dual Core Processor (3.40GHz, 800MHz, 2x2MBcache)

Operating System:Genuine Windows® XP Media Center Edition 2005 Memory:2048MB DDR2 533 [2*1024] Hard Disk Drive:320GB 7200rpm SATA Hard Drive Video:256MB nVidia GeForce 7900GS graphics card

Is this a good buy for £560 delivered.

Also does anyone know if dell machines come with a media remote and tv card preinstalled.

Comments

  • That is a very good deal although for shear processor power the Intel Core 2 Duo is better and even the AMD Athlon X2 processors.

    However for that price it is excellent value for money!! As far as I know unless it is stated that a tv card and media remote are included they do not come with these. You should be able to pick a decent one up for 40-50 quid though!!
