ReviewsAMD Phenom 9500 (2.2GHz, OEM)
Reviewed on December 10, 2007 AMD's new Phenom quad-core CPU has little to recommend it over competing chips from Intel. The Phenom is marginally less expensive, but not enough to make up for its subpar performance. Unless AMD drops prices more aggressively, it looks like Intel will maintain its grasp on the CPU market for the foreseeable future. -
ReviewsIntel Core 2 Duo E6700
Reviewed on July 13, 2006 Intel's Core 2 Duo E6700 offers the best price-to-performance ratio we've seen in a desktop chip. For half the cost of AMD's top-of-the-line chip, you get identical if not superior performance and better power efficiency. AMD surprised us last year with its completely dominant dual-core chips, but Intel regains the crown with Core 2 Duo. -
ReviewsAMD Phenom X4 9850 (2.5GHz)
Reviewed on March 26, 2008 AMD's new Phenom X4 9850 is overpriced and outclassed compared with its Intel-based quad-core competition. If PC vendors can use this chip to make cheap systems (as they did with older Phenoms), we might have nicer things to say, but as a DIY part at this price, we can't recommend AMD's latest quad-core CPU. -
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. -

ReviewsAMD Phenom 9600 (2.3GHz)
Reviewed on December 10, 2007 AMD's new Phenom quad-core CPU has little to recommend it over competing chips from Intel. The Phenom is marginally less-expensive, but not enough to make up for its subpar performance. Unless AMD drops prices more aggressively, it looks like Intel will maintain its grasp on the CPU market for the foreseeable future. -
ReviewsDell Inspiron 1520
Reviewed on June 26, 2007 With a bevy of component options and color choices--plus a low starting price--the Dell Inspiron 1520 series looks poised to be a favorite among home users. -
ReviewsIntel Core 2 Duo E6400
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.

ReviewsToshiba Satellite A305D-S6835
Reviewed on May 12, 2008 Toshiba rolls out its new Satellite look to the basic 15-inch AMD-powered Satellite A305D, but others offer more for the same $999. -
ReviewsGateway FX7020
Reviewed on January 29, 2008 Gateway's FX7020 matches an AMD quad-core CPU and a fast Nvidia graphics card to make a compelling gaming PC, with some basic multimedia features to boot. Upgraders looking for a deal might wish Gateway had added a beefier power supply, but as is, this is a fine PC for its price. -
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. -
ReviewsIntel Core 2 Extreme X6800
Reviewed on July 13, 2006 AMD's Athlon 64 FX line has worn the desktop CPU performance crown for over a year. The king is dead. Intel's new flagship Core 2 Extreme X6800 not only hands AMD a defeat on all of our benchmarks, but it's also a more efficient, better designed chip overall. -
ReviewsIntel Core 2 Extreme QX6700
Reviewed on November 1, 2006 If you thought dual cores were over the top, get ready. Intel presents the Core 2 Extreme QX6700, a single CPU with four distinct processing cores. At $999, the first quad-core CPU will remain an enthusiast part for a while, but as a glimpse of the future, it's clear that clock speed is out and core counts are in. -
ReviewsAMD Athlon 64 FX-62
Reviewed on May 22, 2006 AMD's Athlon 64 FX-62 helps usher in the new Socket AM2 chipset, but incremental performance gains make AMD look vulnerable to Intel's next-gen chips, due later this year. -
ReviewsGateway M-1618
Reviewed on November 16, 2007 Even as we acknowledge its mediocre benchmark performance, we're in love with the design of the highly affordable Gateway M-1618. -
ReviewsIntel Core 2 Extreme QX6850
Reviewed on July 17, 2007 The quad-core Core 2 Extreme QX6850 keeps the desktop CPU performance belt tied firmly around Intel's waist at a price that helps offset the lack of sizable performance gains. New products at the end of the year may outclass this new chip when they arrive, but for now, the QX6850 reigns supreme. -
ReviewsDell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer (Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 500 GB/1.00 MB)
Reviewed on June 26, 2007 Dell's first desktops to carry the Inspiron name look good, inside and out. With a huge range of available components and two equally attractive cases, mainstream consumers ought to be able to find a config that meets their budget, tastes, and computing needs. -
ReviewsAcer Aspire 9300-5005 (Turion 64 X2 Mobile 1.6GHz, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, Vista Home Premium)
Reviewed on March 28, 2007 Acer's desktop replacement, the Aspire 9300-5005, breaks the $1,000 mark and includes some unexpected extras, but don't expect the performance to match more expensive systems. -
