ReviewsDell XPS 730 H2C
Reviewed on May 1, 2008 Dell's updated flagship gaming desktop incorporates the latest hardware from Intel, Nvidia, and AMD into a system that delivers some very impressive gaming scores. We'd give it a higher recommendation if it wasn't so expensive compared with systems from the competition. -
ReviewsMaingear Ephex (Intel and ATI)
Reviewed on February 21, 2008 Maingear's Ephex combines aggressive overclocking and a refined sense of what gamers want in a high-end PC. Crysis remains a challenge for even a top-of-the-line PC like this one, but if you can get past that hitch (and the multi-thousand-dollar price tag), we'd recommend this system in a second. -
ReviewsHP Pavilion m8120n Media Center TV
Reviewed on July 11, 2007 The HP Pavilion Media Center m8120n boasts a quad-core Intel processor and outstanding overall performance, particularly for the price. Media consumers and creators alike will love its speed and AV connections but may rue the lack of a next-gen optical drive. -
ReviewsHP Pavilion Media Center A1640n (Core 2 Duo 1.86 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD)
Reviewed on October 26, 2006 We have a few nitpicks about this midrange desktop from HP, but its strong core configuration overrides most of them. All this PC really needs is an inexpensive 3D graphics card, and it'll be ready for Windows Vista bliss. -
ReviewsVelocity Raptor Signature Edition Gaming PC
Reviewed on January 5, 2007 We have one major issue with the Velocity Micro Raptor Signature Edition (the price), and two minor ones (it's loud, for one), but those aside, this is one of the most feature-complete high-end desktops we've reviewed. Its performance is media-creation- and game-minded, and anyone buying it for those or almost any other purposes won't be disappointed. -
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. -
ReviewseMachines T5230
Reviewed on July 2, 2007 We like this new eMachines T5230 quite a bit for its fast processor. Our main reservation is that other vendors have become more aggressive in adding features to their low-end PCs, and eMachines has opted for power over a well-rounded PC. Still, if all you need is a basic, able desktop, this is a great deal. -
ReviewsSony VAIO XL3
Reviewed on May 1, 2007 If you're inclined to spend a lot for silence and slim design, Sony's new XL3 Digital Living System delivers better than any other full-size home theater PC we've seen. If you're looking for customizability and the most bang for your buck, other vendors have this system beat. -
ReviewsNiveusMedia Media Center Denali Edition - Pentium D 820 2.8 GHz
Reviewed on September 15, 2005 The Denali is for a select audience that's willing to pay a premium for design and DVR muscle and also willing to sacrifice some performance. -
ReviewsSony VAIO RA820G - P4 540 3.2 GHz
Reviewed on November 19, 2004 Sony figured out a way to keep an Intel Pentium 4 processor cool without using an army of cooling fans, giving the nearly silent VAIO VGC-RA820G living-room appeal. -
ReviewsHP Pavilion a1740n
Reviewed on March 14, 2007 HP's lower midrange (or is it upper budget?) Pavilion a1740n desktop will run Windows Vista well enough, but too many other PCs have stronger core hardware for the money. Between that issue and the overall feeling that this system is trying to sell you something prevent us from recommending it. -
ReviewsVelocity ProMagix E2230
Reviewed on May 25, 2007 Its competition's prices range in all directions, but Velocity Micro's E2230 strikes the right balance of performance, expandability and features. We wonder if the power supply is strong enough to withstand many aftermarket upgrades, but even as is, you'll be happy with this strong midrange desktop. -
ReviewsSony VAIO RA810G - P4 550 3.4 GHz
Reviewed on August 3, 2004 Sony figured out a way to keep an Intel Pentium 4 processor cool without using an army of cooling fans, giving the nearly silent VAIO VGC-RA810G living-room appeal. -
ReviewsGateway DX430X
Reviewed on May 18, 2007 Gateway's recently revamped mainstream desktop has plenty of configurability and a fair price. This particular config sacrifices overall performance for 3D gaming power, which some of you will appreciate. We'd rather it was more well-rounded. -
ReviewsAlienware Aurora 7500 - Athlon 64 3000+ 1.8 GHz
Reviewed on August 10, 2005 The Aurora 7500 is an excellent choice if multitasking while using productivity apps is as important as stellar gaming performance. -
ReviewsAVADirect Core 2 Duo SLI
Reviewed on April 12, 2007 This is AVA Direct's debut PC with CNET, and we like what we see so far. A few minor design and config issues aside, the overclocked parts squeeze as much performance as possible, while helping to keep the price somewhat reasonable. We're eager to see more from this small vendor. -
ReviewsGateway FX530XT - Core 2 Extreme QX6700 2.66 GHz - 24" TFT
Reviewed on November 1, 2006 It's rare that you see a performance-leading PC come in below $4,000, but Gateway's FX530XT has pulled it off. Complete with an Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 quad-core CPU and a pair of ATI's highest-end 3D cards, this cutting-edge desktop won't make gamers and digital designers dig quite as deep to get their hands on it. -
ReviewsSilverStone SG01-E (silver)
Reviewed on May 3, 2006 The SilverStone SG01-E is a solidly built aluminum small-form-factor case that can house a powerful PC--just be prepared for some space issues with longer video cards. -
ReviewsOverdrive PC Torque SLI
Reviewed on August 10, 2005 It's more expensive and less flashy than other systems, but you simply can't beat the Overdrive PC Torque SLI's gaming performance. -
ReviewsShuttle XPC P2 3700G - Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86 GHz
Reviewed on November 20, 2006 The Shuttle P2 3700g is a relative steal among pricey, high-performance, small-form-factor PCs, but we don't see why Shuttle locks its customers out of getting inside the case.
