- AVADirect Nano Cube
- AVADirect's $2,266 Nano Cube tries to take on Shuttle's XPC H7 5800 at its own small form factor game. Both systems come with smaller-than-normal SFF cases, and each requires sacrifices, even more than with a standard SFF PC, in exchange for its tiny dimensions. Therein lies our problem with this...

- AVADirect's D900F (Core i7) notebook--photos
- AVADirect will be the first reseller in the U.S. to offer a notebook using the Intel Core i7 quad-core desktop processor. by CNET News.com

- AVADirect Core 2 Duo SLI Gaming System (Intel Core 2 Duo E6700)
- AVADirect's newly updated Core 2 Duo SLI system comes with a $3,600 price tag and a lot to like for a gaming PC. This particular configuration also has a few problems with it, mainly a dual-core rather than a quad-core CPU, as well as a seizure-inducing front-panel fan controller. You...

- Dell Studio XPS 8000
- Dell's Studio XPS 8000 offers an attractive chassis and mostly up-to-date features. Its configurations start as low as $699, but our $1,329 review unit is a solid upper-midrange performance desktop that will play games and handle more demanding digital media tasks with little difficulty. For the very price-performance conscious, both...

- Falcon Northwest Talon (Intel Core i7)
- Falcon Northwest was first to ship us a PC with Intel's new mainstream Core i7 CPUs, and based on this $2,495 Talon configuration, we can say that Intel has met its goal of enabling system builders to sell fast PCs at lower prices than they could previously. Falcon Northwest has...

- Alienware M17x Gaming Laptop Computer (Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300, 500GB HDD, 8GB)
- With a brand-new look, and some of the highest-end tech available in a laptop, we're semi-surprised that Alienware has kept the M17x name for its newest 17-inch laptop (even if it loses the X-Files-esq "Area-51" moniker). While the system starts at a reasonable $1,799, you'll need to configure something closer...

- Digital Storm 950Si (Intel Core i7)
- The $3,636 950Si is the first PC we've reviewed from Digital Storm, and for the most part we've come away impressed. The system itself came with an overclocked, but more importantly stable Intel CPU, and but for a minor design flaw it seems competently built. Digital Storm could have pushed...

- Photos: Top-rated reviews of the week
- Here are a few of CNET Reviews' favorite items from the past week, including the AVADirect Clevo D900F Core i7 laptop, the Asus Eee PC 1005HA laptop, and the Iomega eGo 250GB Portable Mac Edition hard drive. by CNET News.com

- AVADirect Clevo D900F Core i7
- AVADirect isn't hiding the fact that the Clevo D900F Core i7 desktop replacement laptop isn't its design. Actually, the system builder goes out of its way to let you know it's a white-box PC by leaving Clevo--the name of the OEM/ODM company responsible for making the laptop--in the model's name....

- AVADirect Custom Gaming PC
- AVADirect Custom Gaming PCAVA Direct Is GarbageThey sell their products at high markup, don't even try to honor shipping dates, constantly get orders wrong, their wiring is crap, the processors are often mounted incorrectly resulting in overheating, their cases generally come damaged and they use cut rate power supplies and...

- AVADirect Custom Gaming PC
- A dirty secret of gaming PC reviews is that vendors frequently try to submit systems with aggressive overclocking that they won't actually sell because of poor reliability, but that will last long enough to score well on our benchmarks. Imagine our skepticism when this $2,900 AVADirect Custom Gaming PC showed...

- HP TouchSmart IQ816 - Core 2 Duo T8100 2.1 GHz - 25.5" TFT
- Above all else, we have to credit HP for taking a risk with its N-trig-powered line of TouchSmart all-in-one PCs. No other Windows desktop vendor has ventured into the relatively uncharted touch-based waters, and any future developments in touch on the desktop will likely use the TouchSmart series as a...

- Velocity Micro Edge Z-55 (Intel Core i7-920)
- Velocity Micro's Edge Z55 is the second PC we've seen with Intel's new Core i7 processor. This $2,499 gaming desktop is not quite as ambitious as the $8,000 or so Falcon Northwest Mach V, but thanks to the new chip and a smart configuration, the Edge Z55 holds its own...

- Falcon Northwest FragBox 2 (Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650)
- With Intel's new processors just a few short weeks away, it's hard to get that excited about spending $4,000 or so on a high-end gaming PC now. That doesn't mean that we can't appreciate what Falcon Northwest has done with its highest-end FragBox 2. Thanks to a pair of Radeon...

- Shuttle XPC P2 4800X
- Shuttle says that the idea of its tiny XPC P2 4800X gaming PC is to compete with the Falcon Northwest FragBox 2. We suggest that Shuttle head back to the lab. The chief hallmark of this $3,200 configuration is its Intel X48 chipset and its Core 2 Extreme QX9650 processor....

- Velocity Micro Edge Z15
- Velocity Micro's Edge Z15 midrange gaming desktop is a perfect example of what this mid-sized vendor does best. The sleek, sturdy chassis houses an expertly assembled selection of hardware, and the price and performance compete well with systems from both mainstream vendors and smaller specialty shops. Velocity Micro doesn't attempt...

- AVADirect Core 2 SLI DDR3 Gaming System
- If you consider this upper midrange $3,220 AVADirect's Core 2 SLI DDR3 Gaming System representative of the value and build quality available from this small custom builder, we can report that we were mostly happy with this PC, even if we found it loud and its gaming performance a bit...

- AVADirect D900C
- If the last few weeks at CNET Labs were any indication, it would seem that laptops stocked with desktop processors are coming back in vogue. Hot on the heels of the quad-core 917V Accelerator, the massive AVADirect D900C brought an Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 processor, 800MHz memory, and two...

- Velocity Micro ProMagix E2230
- We've already written about Velocity Micro's lower-end Best Buy PC; now we take a look at the ProMagix E2230, a more ambitious $2,100 desktop. Like the less-expensive E2035, the higher-end E2230 combines a dual-core Intel CPU and a Nvidia graphics card to skew toward those looking for a decent gaming...
