ReviewsToshiba Satellite A305-S6858
Reviewed on August 7, 2008 The Toshiba Satellite A305-S6858 is a very good mainstream machine, but we prefer one of its competitors. -
ReviewsDell Inspiron 530-115B
Reviewed on October 22, 2008 This Best Buy-version of the Dell Inspiron may look unremarkable, but thanks to its fast Intel CPU it's also the best performing desktop PC in its sub-$600 price class. Other budget PCs might have fancier bells and whistles, but we like this desktop for its cheap speed. -
ReviewsAcer Aspire X1200-U1520A
Reviewed on September 2, 2008 The Acer Aspire X1200-U1520A is a speedy, compact, low-end desktop that's powerful enough to serve as a light-duty home theater PC. Expansion is limited by an especially cramped interior (even for a small PC), but the total package is worthwhile for PC shoppers on a budget. -
ReviewsAlienware M17
Reviewed on November 6, 2008 Alienware is trying to have it both ways with the new M17, combining a relatively low starting price with some very pricey upgrades, including quad-core CPUs and ATI CrossFireX video cards. Our configuration wasn't very exciting, but turned in capable gaming scores. -
ReviewsVelocity Micro Edge Z-55 (Intel Core i7-920)
Reviewed on November 11, 2008 Velocity Micro's Edge Z55 provides a powerful example of the leap ahead in performance afforded by Intel's new Core i7 CPUs. Velocity Micro's own overclocking efforts don't hurt either. Any PC gamer would love to make this upper midrange desktop their own. -
ReviewsDell Studio Hybrid
Reviewed on July 28, 2008 If you're considering all of the computers in the $700 to $1,000 price range, the Dell Studio Hybrid is not very compelling. However, if you limit yourself to the very specific niche of small PCs, you'll appreciate this system's clever design and its relatively powerful hardware. -
ReviewsDell Studio Desktop
Reviewed on September 24, 2008 Dell's new Studio Desktop introduces 64-bit Windows Vista to the Dell desktop line-up, but that's about the only thing this system does well. Its biggest, and deal-killing, fault is the overpriced and less than aggressive selection of configuration options. -
ReviewsDell Studio MT
Reviewed on October 24, 2008 This off-the-shelf version of the Dell Studio Desktop reminds us of a classic Dell computer. This system is faster and better equipped than its competition, and at a better price. You can certainly get away with a cheaper everyday PC, but this one is a bargain among lower midrange desktops. -
ReviewsAsus Essentio
Reviewed on October 28, 2008 The Asus Essentio is perhaps the best conceived of the recent round of living-room-friendly slim tower desktops. It's just powerful enough, and it comes with the right mix of features to allow it to do what living room PCs do best, without overreaching. -
ReviewsHP Pavilion A6620f
Reviewed on October 31, 2008 The HP Pavilion a6620f makes a decent case for its budget price. We like the design and the built-in digital-audio ports, and if you're on an unbreakable budget, the a6620f will get you through a variety of processes, but we recommend saving up for a system that will give you a more powerful set of components for a negligible price difference. -
ReviewsHP Pavilion dv5-1015nr
Reviewed on August 20, 2008 A Blu-ray drive highlights the feature-packed HP Pavilion dv5-1015nr, while subpar battery life prevents a higher rating for this 15-inch mainstream laptop. -
ReviewsGateway 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. -
ReviewsFalcon Northwest FragBox 2 (Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650)
Reviewed on October 14, 2008 Falcon Northwest's high-end, preconfigured FragBox 2 leans on a pair of top-of-the-line ATI 3D cards to achieve some of the fastest 3D scores we've seen. You might rightly wait for Intel's new CPUs to ship before making a pricey PC purchase, but if you buy this system now, you'll be treated to a superfast little desktop. -
ReviewsVelocity Micro Vector Campus Edition
Reviewed on July 10, 2008 As much as we like the look and feel of Velocity Micro's Vector Campus Edition desktop, we can't recommend it. It suffers from poor bang-for-the-buck, a lack of configurable options, and a narrow upgrade path. -
ReviewsDell Inspiron I530S-114B
Reviewed on October 16, 2008 On certain tests, Dell's off-the-shelf Inspiron 530s comes out ahead of its slim-tower competition, but its situational performance edge isn't dramatic enough to overcome its underwhelming features. You can find cheaper systems that might be a tick slower on certain tasks, but on balance they'll let you do more. -
ReviewsAlienware 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. -
ReviewsAVADirect Core 2 SLI DDR3 Gaming System
Reviewed on July 2, 2008 AVADirect has a very strong value proposition in its Core 2 SLI DDR3 Gaming System. Assuming you can navigate the daunting shopping Web site, we recommend this system to tech-savvy shoppers who know exactly the components they want. -
ReviewsDell Dimension 5100 (Pentium 4 3.4GHz, 256MB RAM, 80GB HDD, XP Home)
Reviewed on August 29, 2005 Dell's mainstream Dimension 5100 looks good from the outside, but surprisingly limited configuration options dampen our enthusiasm. -
ReviewsVelocity Micro Edge E2250
Reviewed on May 1, 2008 The Velocity Micro Edge E2250 is a very fast midrange PC, and it's one of the best PCs in its class for digital media editors. Gamers will find a strong foundation with some upgrade potential, but they can get better performance for the dollar elsewhere. -
