Sorry, I've seem way too many Dell laptop commercials where they show the XPS.


Then you want a machine that has a Core 2 Duo processor. Intel holds the consumer crown right now. (You can get better gaming performance right now from a high end AMD, but Intel is back in the driver's seat)

Intell C2D E6400 or E6600 is right around the sweet spot for desktop processors. Although looking at their website it doesn't appear Dell offers the NVidia Geforce 8800 which holds the gaming videocard benchmark right now.
