Don't worry. It's cool to hate Dell wherever you go.

The quad SLI does not give any performance increase for single display applications. If you dual displays, two of the video cards will render all of the graphics on the first display, the other two cards for the other display.

So unless you are running two games simultaneously, one on each display, the Renegade will run the same as if you were only running with two video cards.]]>Apr 11th 2006 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 11th 2006 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 11th 2006 3:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 11th 2006 3:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 11th 2006 3:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/I believe you are forgetting one aspect:

What in the world are u going to run on it that you couldn't run on the $1,699 dell.

Dude your getting a dell and you just over paid for by $8,301 dollars.... OWNED!!! It's an overclocked heatwave.

It's not even water-cooled... LoL..

you could have used that money on THREE HDTV's with 1080p with one for your not overpriced computer (the $1,699 one)and two for your PS3... since it can handle dual 1080p output.

or put the thrid one on the X360 for those long nights of Halo 3... ]]>Apr 11th 2006 4:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/
It's no more absurd than many of the limited edition swarovski crystal incrusted, celeb signed, artiste created nonsense gadgets out there. Actually now that I think of those examples this one seems less absurd.

Besides the joy of overclocking is doing it yourself. I only glanced at the specs but it doesn't say if it's liquid cooled?]]>Apr 11th 2006 5:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 11th 2006 5:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 11th 2006 6:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/

the other five were gifted to the race of men, who above else desired POWER.. But they were all of them deceived, for deep in the land of Dell, Michael Dell, in secret forged the ultimate XPS, one to control all others..

So, it's not so much who buys it. Even if they sold NONE, what they'd gain here is many headlines in tech news sites all over the world for just being one of the most priciest pieces of gear out (if nothing else). You can't buy that type of publicity.

So, in the end, despite the pros/cons of the brand involved, despite all discussion of value for money, exclusivity, whatever, THEY WIN because of all the discussion and buzz they caused on fanboy/hateboy sites.

Like this one. And you all help build it for them. Mission accomplished for Dell. That is their intent.]]>Apr 15th 2006 9:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/11/dells-10k-xps-600-renegade-sold-out/Apr 21st 2006 4:58PM
