Hey Guys,
I am buying the Dell Studio within a few days. I have customized it. I have some questions. I wud really appreciate if u can answer them:
1. I have a friend in Dell and I am buying through him. Since he will b buying 4 me, will I have any problems in claiming the warranty and all later.

2. Shud I go for 320 GB 7200 rpm hdd or 320 GB 5400 rpm is sufficient?

3. Will getting a 512 MB ATI HD 4570 graphics card will increase performance in games or 256 MB ATI card is sufficient?

4. What is this Creative Sound Blaster Audio solution? Does it increase the audio quality from speakers?

Please give ur opinions. I really need em'. I am buying soon.

Ok.. Here Are Your Answers...
1. I dont think so.. IMO it will be good.. since he will get all your stuff done.
2. Ofcourse go in for 7200 rpm drive.. faster the drive better the performance.
3. Buying 512 MB card will be good choice as it will be helpful in the future if not now..
4. Its just an audio solution.. the audio chip in your system..
