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.

  • MSI X-Slim X340

    Ultimately MSI's X-Slim X340 is a disappointment. It is reasonably attractive, but it's not worth the price due to the horrible keyboard and budget touchpad.

  • 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.
