Pricing not availableMaingear Ephex (Intel Core i7 965)
Reviewed on January 27, 2009 Maingear's Ephex is the fastest PC we've reviewed, and also the most expensive. You can find better service policies from other boutique PC vendors, but the Ephex's overall speed and build quality are enough for us to recommend it to those in the market for the best desktop they can find. -
Pricing not availableMaingear F131
Reviewed on August 22, 2003 With high-end components, a snazzy paint job, and big-time frame rates, the custom-built Maingear F131 gives Falcon and Voodoo a run for their money in the gourmet-gaming market. -
Pricing not availableShuttle XPC H7 5800
Reviewed on June 23, 2009 Shuttle's XPC H7 5800 is unique mostly for the fact that it's the smallest system we know of to offer multigraphics card support and Intel Core i7 CPUs. If its options sound gamer-friendly, its price and configuration quirks are decided turn-offs. Unless you demand this particular balance of size and power, we'd look elsewhere. -
Check prices$1,199.00Velocity Micro Edge Z15
Reviewed on September 8, 2008 Velocity Micro's Edge Z15 represents one of the best deal's we've seen this year in midrange gaming PCs. It has all the power necessary to play current games (even Crysis) at smooth frame rates, and its clean, spacious interior gives you plenty of upgrade room. We recommend this system to any PC gamer looking for a sub-$2,000 desktop. -
Pricing not availableMaingear Ephex (Intel and ATI)
Reviewed on February 21, 2008 Maingear's Ephex combines aggressive overclocking and a refined sense of what gamers want in a high-end PC. Crysis remains a challenge for even a top-of-the-line PC like this one, but if you can get past that hitch (and the multi-thousand-dollar price tag), we'd recommend this system in a second. -
Pricing not availableMaingear F131 SLI
Reviewed on June 29, 2007 Maingear's F131 SLI takes it to the high-end PC competition, earning itself an Editors' Choice in the process. Without having the full picture of DirectX 10 performance, you're potentially taking a risk buying a high-end gaming PC now. But if you need to make that purchase today, we recommend Maingear with enthusiasm. -
Pricing not availableMaingear X-Cube (AMD Phenom II X4 940)
Reviewed on February 26, 2009 Maingear's X-Cube small form factor game PC has received a cleverly redesigned case and boasts strong bang for the buck in its niche. We wouldn't necessarily pick this configuration, and you can find a better deal in a standard-size gaming desktop, but you still might be charmed by its unique looks and its decent value. -
Pricing not availableDell XPS 730 H2C Desktop Computer (Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770 1TB/2GB)
Reviewed on May 1, 2008 Dell's updated flagship gaming desktop incorporates the latest hardware from Intel, Nvidia, and AMD into a system that delivers some very impressive gaming scores. We'd give it a higher recommendation if it wasn't so expensive compared with systems from the competition. -
Pricing not availableFalcon Northwest FragBox 2 (Intel Core i7)
Reviewed on April 3, 2009 In a normal economy, we'd expect that Falcon Northwest's new Core i7 FragBox 2 would wow us with fast performance in a compact case. Instead, the price of this system as configured has been severely undercut by a competitor. An improved warranty takes the edge off somewhat, but the new market reality makes it hard to recommend this PC. -
Pricing not availableMaingear X-Cube
Reviewed on June 20, 2006 Falcon Northwest's FragBox might be the best known small-form-factor gaming PC, but Maingear's X-Cube is currently the most up-to-date. With the latest of everything, if you want a gaming desktop for on-the-road fragging, look no further. -
Pricing not availableMaingear Prelude 64
Reviewed on December 7, 2005 Maingear builds 'em right, but a few of the Prelude 64's hardware choices surprised us. Luckily, this is one highly configurable gaming PC. -
Pricing not availableMaingear Prelude (AMD Phenom X4 9850)
Reviewed on June 4, 2008 The Maingear Prelude has the best bang for the buck among midrange gaming PCs. It also has a certain stocky visual appeal. It's missing a few features, and you'll have to jump through a few hoops to make upgrades, but on balance, this system is a great deal. -
Pricing not availableMaingear X-Cube (Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800)
Reviewed on May 9, 2007 Maingear's sharp, tidy X-Cube packs a mostly powerful gaming punch. It loses a few steps due to Vista, and we wish it had a few more features. With so much in PC gaming in flux, we're also reluctant to recommend such a pricey purchase now. But if you need a fast, small gaming PC today, the X-Cube mostly delivers. -
Pricing not availableMaingear F131
Reviewed on August 25, 2005 The Maingear F131 SLI-AMD is lightning fast, and despite a noisy case and some minor design quirks, it stands tall with other top-tier PCs. -
Pricing not availableGateway FX541XT
Reviewed on June 18, 2008 Gateway's highest-end performance desktop aspires to be everything to everybody. It takes a few missteps, but mostly it succeeds, especially with its price. -
Pricing not availableGateway FX7026
Reviewed on June 25, 2008 The Gateway FX7026 offers a quad-core processor at a modest price tag with specifications that any high-end gamer will be satisfied with. You might want to replace the peripherals and the video card down the road, but this system is an excellent option for a nonconfigurable, off the shelf desktop. -
Pricing not availablePuget Deluge-i L2
Reviewed on April 8, 2008 We've seen too many speedy, sub-$2,000 gaming PCs this year to get excited by Puget's near-$5,000 desktop, as elaborate as its liquid cooling may be. Its performance doesn't separate it enough from the midrange pack, and it's outclassed by its other high-end competition. -
Pricing not availableVelocity Micro Raptor DCX (ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT)
Reviewed on May 14, 2007 This high-end gaming PC doesn't quite cross into ludicrous territory, and by staying disciplined Velocity Micro has come up with one of the best deals we've seen. You still might wait for a clearer picture of the next-generation gaming scene, but based on what we know today, this PC is a winner. -
Pricing not availableAlienware Area-51 ALX (Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770)
Reviewed on June 5, 2008 Alienware delivers most of what we expect in a high-end gaming PC, but without 64-bit Vista support, the Area-51 ALX's overall performance is limited. It's the fastest thing going for PC gaming, but at this price we expect the complete package. -
Pricing not availableShuttle XPC P2 3700G - Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86 GHz
Reviewed on November 20, 2006 The Shuttle P2 3700g is a relative steal among pricey, high-performance, small-form-factor PCs, but we don't see why Shuttle locks its customers out of getting inside the case.
