Reviewed on February 25, 2008Not every PC has to be a decent gaming box, but regardless, we expect them to be priced appropriately. Velocity Micro's ProMagix E2055 looks great and does well on some tests, but its gaming scores and its overall bang-for-the-buck fall short.TAGS:Velocity Micro, Intel Core 2 Duo, Dell XPS, quad-core, Nvidia GeForce, Gateway Inc., Intel, CPU, games, PC
Reviewed on December 20, 2006Gateway's midrange DX420X is a strong midrange desktop that's primed for smooth Windows Vista performance. You can configure this system with some uncommonly high-end parts, but the one feature it's missing is an option for HD DVD or Blu-ray. If you can live without an HD disk player, we recommend this Gateway, especially if you're looking for some extra performance.TAGS:Gateway Inc., Media Center PC, HP, HD-DVD, Intel Core 2 Duo, HP Pavilion, Nvidia GeForce, memory, Adobe PhotoShop, CPU, entertainment, DVD, Apple iTunes, PC
