ReviewsAMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
Reviewed on June 1, 2006 AMD's new high-end dual-core CPU offers plenty of bang for the buck, outpacing Intel's Pentium 965 Extreme Edition, which costs $200 more. Sounds like a good deal, but wait to see what Intel's next-gen Core 2 Duo chips have to offer when they debut later this year. -
ReviewsIntel Core 2 Duo E6300
Reviewed on July 13, 2006 Intel's Core 2 Duo line marks the end of AMD's run of dominance through the dual-core desktop-processor landscape. Not only are Intel's new chips fast, efficient, and well designed, but they're also aggressively priced and sure to send ripples though the desktop PC industry. If you are buying or building a new computer, we recommend that a Core 2 Duo chip be at its center. -
ReviewseMachines ET1161-03
Reviewed on October 22, 2008 The eMachines ET1161-03 delivers fewer features than its competition at the same price. Stretch your dollar further and you'll find a desktop with significantly better components for only $50 more. -
ReviewsHP Compaq Presario SR5610f
Reviewed on October 24, 2008 The HP Compaq Presario SR5610f stirs together a mix of mediocre parts in a cookie-cutter chassis, brewing up an altogether yawn-worthy computer. The price tag falls in line with other budget systems that feature similar components, but we recommend spending $50 more on the Acer x3200, a well designed compact PC that can carry more weight across a wider variety of applications. -

ReviewsHP Pavilion Slimline s7600e (1.6 GHz, 80 GB HDD)
Reviewed on October 12, 2006 HP's new Slimline Pavilion s7600e strikes a near-perfect balance of size, features, value, and support. Apple's Mac Mini might be more attractive, but there's almost nothing it can do that this small-form-factor Windows PC can't do better, and for less. If you're looking for a general-purpose desktop or a small, affordable PC to send media files to your TV, this should be your pick. -
ReviewsAMD Athlon 64 FX-60
Reviewed on January 9, 2006 -
ReviewsLenovo ThinkCentre A61e
Reviewed on October 8, 2007 Any business interested in cutting its power bills generated by its work-a-day desktop fleet might be interested in the ThinkCentre A61e, but home office workers or anyone interested in a smaller PC should stay far away from this system that has a major performance and features deficit compared to other small desktops. -
ReviewsHP Pavilion Media Center a6030n - Athlon 64 X2 4800+ 2.5 GHz
Reviewed on May 4, 2007 The new looks are nice, but we're more glad that HP has redesigned its new midtower Pavilion desktop with an eye on expandability. That and the robust service make this $760 desktop a solid buy for anyone in need of a straightforward day-to-day PC. -
ReviewsIntel Pentium Extreme Edition 955
Reviewed on December 27, 2005 -
ReviewsCyberpower Gamer Ultra 8500 SE (AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000 )
Reviewed on April 25, 2007 The Cyberpower Gamer Ultra 8500 SE looks like a great deal, but we question the overall Cyberpower buying experience. Four years of negative reader comments about this company led us to investigate. Cyberpower promises to improve, but you should still proceed with caution. -
ReviewsPolywell Poly 690G-5200
Reviewed on March 9, 2007 By submitting this system with 64-bit Windows Vista, Polywell opens it up to driver conflicts, application incompatibility, and underwhelming performance on memory intensive tasks. We're not sure what the benefits are, either. You can configure it with 32-bit Windows, and improve on the hardware to bring its performance up, but at that point it loses its price advantage. Pass this one by. -
NewsChip prices fall at AMD
January 23, 2006 Bargains abound for certain AMD models, but the nature of the cuts suggests that a price war is not in the offing, an analyst says. -
ReviewsiBuypower Value Ultra (Athlon 64 X2 4200)
Reviewed on July 13, 2006 The highly configurable iBuyPower Value Ultra can be set up to emphasize performance or price; this back-to-school configuration keeps a foot in both camps, but a better budget deal lurks elsewhere. -

AMD releases budget dual-core Athlon
August 1, 2005 Release of a new version of chipmaker's dual-core desktop processor comes as the back-to-school buying season heats up. -
ReviewsCyberpower Gamer Ultra 8500 SE - Athlon 64 X2 3800+ 2 GHz - 17" TFT
Reviewed on February 17, 2006 The Cyberpower Gamer Ultra 8500 SE offers passable gaming performance and plenty of power for your boring everyday apps; spring for a faster video card if you want to play the latest games with the graphics maxed out. -

June 1, 2005 Benchmarking sites find that Athlon 64 X2 chips generally edge out the Intel Pentium D and the Pentium 4 Extreme Edition. -
ReviewsEnpower Media Center Xpress Special Edition
Reviewed on June 16, 2006 If you need a small-form-factor PC that can play 3D games and record TV while also giving you the ability to tinker, don't let the PC Club Enpower Media Center Xpress Special Edition's plain exterior fool you--this is one little system that comes up big in many areas.
