Don't buy this. The XPS 8930 is plagued with a well-documented freeze-up problem, in which the computer locks up for 6 to 8 seconds several times a day while you're working on it. Neither Dell support nor the many contributors to the Dell forum can find a solution to it.
I have this computer with the i7 processor and can confirm that the freeze-ups are very annoying.
I can agree. I experience the same issue. Also have an i7. For me I also have issues with the USB. I have to unplug from different USB ports until my devices work again.

I've installed a bunch of these computers. I have only had that complaint once. I also S can those POS 1TB Seagate hard drives. Keep up to date with Dell SupportAssist. Always run NVidia cards (multiple monitors) and have had issues with previous performance issues with recent NVidia driver versions (seems fine now). One 8930 had a USB mouse / keyboard issue. Replaced the motherboard.
