**Dell Studio 17** Any good setup?

Yes, that system will play those games just fine.....just one thing though!!!...........Windows 7 has not been released yet, will be released October 22. SOME people are running a beta test version of W7, but that's all it is, a test version, if something is not compatible or something goes wrong, you're screwed, Microsoft even tells you up front not to install it on your primary computer. On top of that, once W7 is finally released, all the beta testers will have to reformat their drives and install a licensed copy. Stick with Vista 64 for now and upgrade to W7 later on. I have been running Vista 64 on my Intel Quad Core for over a year now with not a single problem and the system is lightning fast.
