Dell launched a new gaming PC that’s all about having AMD inside. The Dell XPS 625 desktop PC supports the so called AMD Dragon platform.

That means the PC has the newly released AMD Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition processor alongside two ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics cards in CrossFire mode. AMD’s own OverDrive program also allows for overcloking the processor as well. Pricing for the new XPS 625 PC starts at $999 and it’s available now on Dell’s web site.
