  • CPL Core i5 750 desktop PC 17/11/2009 12:20:00

    An Intel Core i5 750-based machine for gaming and much more!
    CPL (Computer & Parts Land) has produced an Intel Core i5-based system that's far from ordinary. It looks badass thanks to the Cooler Master Storm Scout case, and its performance is impressive. It offers a glut of features for a competitive price of $1710.
  • Centre Com Sphere i5 Basic desktop PC 16/11/2009 10:30:00

    An Intel Core i5 750-based system for $1499
    Centre Com's Sphere i5 Basic is a desktop PC that's fairly nondescript on the outside. It's built using a run-of-the-mill Cooler Master mid-tower ATX case, which has plenty of room for expansion but definitely won't stand out in a crowd. The most impressive part of this system lies inside: Intel's latest CPU for mainstream users, the Core i5 750.
  • Apple iMac 21.5in (Late 2009) 12/11/2009 13:30:00

    Apple beefs up its consumer desktop PC with a faster CPU and an energy-efficient display
    Apple's refreshed iMac desktop computer is cheaper but more powerful than its predecessor, and it features a more vibrant display. If you're still a Windows user or have an older Mac, the latest iMac is certainly tempting. However, we weren't impressed by the new Magic Mouse, which is bundled with the iMac.
  • Alienware Aurora ALX gaming PC 11/11/2009 15:20:00

    A hardcore gaming PC with deadly looks and fast performance
    Alienware's Aurora ALX is a gaming PC with plenty of speed, flair and attitude. It's the sort of system that polarises people. Some will love its audacious design and extravagance -- such as automatically opening air vents — others will mutter that the machine would be a lot cheaper if it had a more basic case. The fact is, though, the Aurora ALX is designed to appeal to a certain type of gamer -- a gamer who wants a machine that looks as aggressive and willing to kill as the characters in their first person shooters. To this end, we think it delivers.

  • Why Lenovo still lags in consumer PCs (and how it plans to fix that) 28/10/2009 08:20:00

  • New Apple iMac is jaw-dropping yet incomplete 22/10/2009 03:11:00

    Beautiful as it is, the 27-inch iMac still lacks some important options that would make it the ultimate all-in-one PC.
    Apple's new 27-inch iMac is so beautifully designed that it's easy to look past its most glaring defects. Yes, there are other 27-inch displays out there, but I've yet to see one with the 2560x1440 resolution that Apple is offering. This approaches the resolution of 30-inch monitors like the Dell UltraSharp 3007WFP-HC, which lists for $1300 and has a resolution of 2560x1600. Given the iMac's $1700 starting price and the fact that its mini DisplayPort can be used as an input, it's possible to think of the 27-inch iMac as a slightly overpriced Apple display that includes a free computer. I almost never say this about Apple products, but this is a great value.

  • PC World's WorldBench 6: Behind the Scenes 02/10/2009 05:17:00

    The latest version of PC World’s test suite is getting finishing touches. But what makes this suite of apps different?
    PC World will soon be publishing WorldBench 6, the latest version of our PC benchmarking suite. What does that mean to you? WorldBench is the core set of applications that PC World uses to test all kinds of desktop PCs and laptop PCs. The results generated from this comprehensive suite of real-world test scenarios are a significant component of our reviews of the systems that pass through PC World's door. And because these tests all use actual programs and involve tasks that you might perform in real life, they're an excellent barometer for determining how PCs might perform outside of the lab and on your desk.
