Dell Studio XPS 435
08/10/2009
Pros: Dell's strongest chassis design in years ; highly capable jack-of-all-trade configuration ; strong customer support options
Cons: Not as fast or as affordable as some of its off-the-shelf competition ; a few missing features ; power hog
Verdict: The Dell Studio XPS 435 successfully overcomes our bias against desktops that claim to be experts at everything through charming case design and a strong configuration at a relatively fair price. It misses greatness because of a handful of minor ...
Dell Studio XPS 435
03/14/2009
Pros: Outfitted for a slew of multimedia and gaming needs. Design trumps unwieldy size. Gigabit ethernet connectivity is a boon to the gaming set. Home theater ready with 7.1 surround speaker outputs. Peripheral friendly with eight USB ports (4 front/4 rear ...
Cons: Anemic power supply puts a damper on future expansion. Included mouse and keyboard feels el cheap-o. Ridiculous weight puts a damper on mobility. Both fan and Blu-ray drive door are frustratingly noisy. Not bundled/paired with a monitor

Dell Studio XPS 435
02/26/2009
Pros: High-powered CPU and graphics. Forward-thinking design. Top-mounted tray and USB ports. A 15-month subscription to McAfee Internet Security.
Cons: Big and heavy. Could use another data drive. No hard switch for reset or power. Blu-ray is read-only.
Verdict: The Dell Studio XPS 435 does a great job with multimedia tasks like encoding video and editing photos, and does very well with 3D games. All that power costs you less than $1,800 (under $2,000 with monitor).
Dell seems open to trying out snazzier designs for its desktop PCs these days. The Dell Studio XPS 435 ($1,769 direct, $1,999 with 22-inch widescreen monitor) veers decidedly away from the black-and-silver boxes of the previous XPS and Inspiron models ...
