ReviewsGateway GT5674
Reviewed on June 13, 2008 The Gateway GT5674 is a low-cost quad-core desktop that delivers excellent bang for the buck. The problem is, most mainstream users don't need four processing cores and can get away with a dual-core PC for even less. -
ReviewsMaingear 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. -
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. -
ReviewsXFX GeForce 8800 GTS (320MB, GDDR3)
Reviewed on February 12, 2007 No other 3D graphics card comes close to this bang for the buck, making the 320MB XFX GeForce 8800 GTS mostly an easy decision if you need a midrange upgrade. Nvidia still has to polish off its Vista software, and the sooner-or-later arrival of competing cards muddies the waters a bit, but if you need a midprice graphics card today, this should be your pick. -
ReviewsVelocity Micro
Reviewed on December 7, 2005 With crisp performance and expert construction, the Velocity Micro Gamer's Edge DualX is a near-perfect gaming system that won't break the bank. -
ReviewsFalcon Northwest FragBox II
Reviewed on August 29, 2005 Featuring the latest bleeding-edge components in a luggable form factor, the Falcon Northwest FragBox 2 aims for the well-heeled LAN-party gamer who doesn't want to compromise performance for portability. -
ReviewsVelocity ProMagix E2035
Reviewed on May 4, 2007 Velocity Micro's PCs are always easy on the eyes, and that trend continues with this midrange gaming model. We have some reservations about its performance for the cost, but if you're inclined toward upgrading you might be willing to forgive that it's a little slow today. -
ReviewsVelocity Micro Vector GX Campus Edition (Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86GHz)
Reviewed on July 18, 2006 The budget desktop scene is due for a shake-up with Intel's new chips and AMD's impending price cuts, but the Velocity Micro Vector GX Campus Edition is a strong opening volley. There's not much we'd change about this back-to-school package; it's as capable as it is attractive. -
NewsPC Gaming Alliance debuts
February 20, 2008 Activision, AMD, Dell, Intel, Microsoft, and Nvidia co-found nonprofit dedicated to "advancing the PC as a worldwide gaming platform." -
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. -
ReviewsMaingear 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. -
ReviewsFalcon Northwest Mach V (Intel Core 2 Duo)
Reviewed on July 13, 2006 If you want a gaming-oriented Intel Core 2 Duo system and you have to have it right away, the Falcon Northwest Mach V pumps out plenty of frames per second but falls behind the faster Dell XPS 700 in other computing tasks. -
ReviewsATI Radeon HD 3870 X2
Reviewed on January 30, 2008 The 3D graphics card market changes too rapidly for us to get bullish about a card with premature driver software. The ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 shows promise, even outscoring Nvidia on many PC games, but we would still wait until AMD works out the kinks before handing over your $450. -

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. -
ReviewsUberclok Ion
Reviewed on February 8, 2008 Thanks to its overclocked CPU and 3D card, the Uberclok Ion delivers excellent performance for its price. It also offers a reliable upgrade path due to its SLI motherboard. We also like its Web site. We'd like to see more from Uberclok before we make too strong a recommendation, but this system makes a great first impression. -
ReviewsFalcon Northwest Talon
Reviewed on May 16, 2005 Stressing function over form, the unassuming Falcon Northwest Talon is an SLI gaming PC that provides the power needed for today's games, just not at levels worth bragging about. -
