Polywell Poly X5800A3


Although the first system implemented by the grace Harpertown Intel Labs, do not set this Polywell Poly X5800A3 near the top of the performance of our computer ranking because of its technological base only six. What processor is so that the machine Polywell compete against the best without thanks to a class (and expensive) platforms for the cost of a thousand dollars a respectable 4500 (as of 21 March 2010).

To see how the main central processing units from Intel - the 3.33 GHz, six-core Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition - 980X - The processor was developed X5800A3, and to consider the cost: the processor alone is $ 1,000 less as the fourth award of the system. Polywell includes 12GB of DDR3 1333 and the startup disk of raids clean 600 GB (two 300 GB SAS Hitachi) set, and an additional 2 TB drive for storage.

Our manufacturers are responsible for the upgrade offer limited between sessions of each office in one and escape almost talk with the AE2220 has a liquidation. S and 21.6 inches successor to the Wind Top EY2010 on the total price of $ 949. With more than $ 300 EY2010, but it is money well spent: AE2220 is faster and more and more features packed into a category almost all of the recording.

And wandered about the level of 85 in our WorldBench test suite sixth This result is not terrible, but it is less in the category of the A300. By comparison, the HP All-in-One 200 is a bit cheaper and earned WorldBench of 6104th.

Dell Studio XPS 7100

Dollar in 1500 alone (from 1 August 2010, which was set up as), and Dell Inspiron 7100 office to a buyer in effect, that the PC gaming muscle to the tasks modern CPU-intensive, as the image processing and video editing overcome this targeted or lightweight, but this does not deter customers. It is attractive, it offers a heart of AMD and six packs of them a few things that devices that rely on the media, what a variety of surprising.




Inspiron 7100 packs in the 2.8 GHz Athlon X6 1055T, 6 GB of DDR3 memory and 1.5 TB of entire hard disk. Overall, 7100 is the result of a respectable 120 on our WorldBench 6 test suite.

eMachines ET1831-07


It is known that reducing the cost of a desktop system, the greater the likelihood that a machine cut, the corners to achieve this award. You will not find often that the system is as attractive as the price low, works. ET1831 and electronics - 07, a computer tower size $ 390) and 30 2010), is one such office. He has to improve on a good pace and scalability to decent work and a lot of storage space for a price of almost $ 200 less than competing budget computers.

Although the ET1831 - 07 for Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5400 CPU more than a year, a 2.7 GHz of computing power to him - even with 4 GB of DDR2 system memory - execution of ET1831 - 07 On our WorldBench 6 benchmark range, with 101, it has a certain number of computers in the household on the cards that we have achieved - but all these systems are much more expensive than 07 ET1831. The next competition for 07 - ET1831, a SX2840 - 01, supplied only 17 percent performance increase of 44 percent cost increase

Apple 27-inch Core i3 iMac/3.2GHz

There is no doubt that 2010 is the year, and calls the company of Apple's iPhone, the company focuses heavily on new children in the neighborhood. But Mac is not quite the picture.

AVADirect Nano Cube

AVADirect Nano Cube ($ 1,535 from April 20, 2010) is a regular desktop computer in a small bowl. This is not a machine is fully working, but it compensates for the shortcomings by providing performance close to the upscale.

Nano Cube, and will check with processors 2.67GHz i5 - 750 Core and 4 GB of RAM. Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) on the disk semi-conductors, which is limited to 120 GB trivial. Thank you for quad-core processor, and the task quickly, and cubic nano WorldBench 6 points from 134 - the mark, and count in top positions of the ordinary, we reviewed it deserves.

Production of nano-cube, with the graphics card ATI Radeon 5850, the results are impressive games. We have seen an average of 102 fps in Unreal Tournament 3 at a resolution of 2560 × 1600 pixels, which beats to the rhythm of the MicroFlex 2 75B Micro Express (82 frames per second) and Electrical Toys Cyber Xtreme 2000 (95 frames per second).

And begins L117FX VAIO b / $ 1,300, we tested a high-end, $ 2,000) as the 8th 2009) configuration. At this price you can get in standard office tower, which increase performance and profitability of the upgrade, but it is the essence of all computers in one.


Find these pictures VAIO Intel a step in the past that the quad-core chip at 2.33 GHz in a single sentence ZX6810 - 01.01 1400 $ 23 inch model also has multi-touch display and TV tuner (but no Blu-ray ). However, despite the combination of the 2.66 GHz Core 2 Quad Q8400, 6GB DDR2 memory - 800 and 1 TB hard drive, Sony in some respects does not fit the words of the service

Maingear F131

F131 Maingear and hit the upper limit of the consumer PC category, both in performance and cost. But one gets used a lot for your money from the F131 delivers a lot of muscle and flexibility of Hitachi devices at a respectable $ 1,999 (from August 12, 2010).
The F131 is equipped with Intel Core 655k i5. Although the CPU dual-core clock speed of the nature of the 3.2GHz, overclocked to Maingear 4.5GHz and stunning - the secret device performance leading class. Along with 4GB DDR3 - 1333 RAM and 1TB hard drive, and half of the wizard, and F131 to earn points in the test suite 152 WorldBench 6 - the highest in the category, and mark them approach the end of the performance of the desktop.

And had the graphics performance is equally impressive, thanks to the order of the husband from NVIDIA GTX 460 graphics cards in SLI. We have an indication on the Unreal Tournament 3, the F131 produced average frame rate is 120.3 frames per second. 2 in the soil, and said it achieved 85.8 frames per second (2560 × 1600 resolution settings and higher). Reload this averages the results dwarf even competitors wealthy class public: for example, [XPS Dell Studio 7100, which was in the second one from ATI Radeon 5870, to 88 Unreal Tournament 3 in the second and 55.5 in the Dirt 2 packs . View F131 is not very surprising, but - two GTX460 cards to generate enormous energy, and the price of 200 dollars for each card retains all of the cost under reasonable.
