Dell's XPS 625 and 630, Now Available with Liquid Cooling

Round Rock, Texas-based Dell is known for its wide range of computer systems, providing users with a choice for a mainstream, gaming or entry-level PC. As far as gaming is concerned, the company's XPS-line of PCs is designed to deliver a high level of performance, but in a package that isn't necessarily all that expensive. This is the case of Dell's XPS 625 and 630 desktop gaming rigs, designed to provide gaming enthusiasts with a high level of performance at a price tag that starts at about $1000. On that note, the PC vendor has recently decided to give its customers a new configuration option, especially to those who like toying with the performance of the system.

Dell released, earlier this year, the XPS 625 and 630 desktop rigs, mainly designed to meet the performance requirements of computer gaming enthusiasts. The lower-priced XPS 625 is based on an AMD platform, offering support for the latest 45nm Phenom II X4 processors, 8GB of DDR memory and ATI Radeon graphics. The higher priced XPS 630 is built using Intel technology, offering support for Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad CPUs, up to 8GB of DDR2 and NVIDIA or ATI graphics.

According to the product page on Dell's website, both the XPS 625 and the higher-performance XPS 630 can be featured with a liquid cooling system, designed by Asetek. The option should be easily embraced by overclocking enthusiasts, but also by those who just like owning a very cool computer. That's because the liquid cooling solution allows users to take advantage of a more silent computing experience.

However, as with most optional additions to a Dell system, the Asetek cooling solution isn't exactly cheap. If you are ready to add another $120 on top of the base price of $899 and $1099, the XPS 625 and XPS 630 with liquid cooling can certainly be yours.
