Features

Processor : Core 2 Duo T7300

What's Hot

HDMI, Performance, SRS

What's Not

No S-Video, Lacking media features to compliment the HDMI port

The Final Word

We like the steps BenQ has taken with its new range, including the HDMI port and a solid component base. We do feel that more could have been added to enhance the media aspect of this powerful machine, but otherwise it's a pleasure to use.
