Reviews

AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition

While the higher power consumption is a slight concern, the X4 955 proves that AMD is back in the performance game and ready to play hard ball. Bring on the next generation.
Apple Mac Mini (2009)

Apple's newest Mac Mini is set to be a hit, being both small and powerful. We suspect that if Apple had managed to squeeze Blu-ray support in there, it would take a large chunk of the home theatre PC market.
Intel Core i7-965 Extreme Edition

While Core i7 presents a new performance paradigm, the heinously gluttonous Australian prices will need to come down before it's accepted by the mainstream.
Dell XPS 630

With its newest full-fledged gaming PC, Dell shows that it understands the mainstream gaming desktop as well as the high-end.
Asus GeForce EN8800GT (512MB)

Asus and Nvidia have teamed up for a compelling midrange 3D graphics card with this EN8800 GT. If you can find this card for a good price, we recommend it, especially if you intend to use two of them.
Acer Ferrari 1100

Acer's Ferrari is nice to use, but the exclusivity and inflated price feels manufactured, not earned.
Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)

With its super-elegant new design and a strong configuration, Apple's new iMac competes with the PC desktop market better than perhaps any previous Mac to date.
AMD Athlon 64 FX-60

It's as fast as we imagined, but we wish AMD's new dual-core chip played better with other computer parts out of the gate.
