Geek deals: $498 off quad-core Dell desktop and 24-inch monitor


Dell XPS 8300


Your dollar will take you further with a desktop than a laptop (unpopular fact, but it’s almost always true). Nonetheless, it is still not enough to persuade many people to throw down their cash and get a large, heavy, dust-collecting tower. But what if a free 24-inch LED monitor happened to be include for a fraction of its price? That might be enough to drive the most dedicated laptop user over the edge.


This deal on the Dell XPS 8300 desktop bundle might do the trick. For $949.99, you’ll net the quad-core Intel Core i7-powered desktop with pretty generous specs. The handsome white box includes 8GB RAM, a 1TB hard drive, discrete Radeon 6450 graphics, and 15 free months of McAfee SecurityCenter. Dell also includes a laser mouse and keyboard in this bundle, but it doesn’t stop there… it includes a 24-inch display as well.


You’ll also receive the Dell U2412M 24-inch monitor in this package. Normally, this LED backlit display retails for $369 but when you purchase it as part of this bundle, it’s only $200. And even if a great deal on an LED IPS-panel monitor doesn’t appeal to you, there’s always the option to pare down your purchase and go with desktop. It’s a pretty good bargain, and an extra monitor is almost always handy somewhere down the line, but if you’re strapped for cash the option to reduce your spend is always there.


All told, this deal saves you $498 on a very nice desktop setup. And you even get free shipping… so what are you waiting for?
