Dell's XPS family is a step up from the more basic Inspiron line, and is geared more towards multimedia and gaming. Inside the XPS 8700 you'll find a 4th generation Core i7-4770 processor, 8GB RAM and a 1TB 7200RPM HDD, so it will zip right through your basic tasks and HD videos with power to spare. Combined with the 1GB Nvidia GeForce GT 635 graphics card it's equipped to handle some real gaming use too, though for the latest games you may have to stick to the minimum settings.
