Recommend.AMD Athlon 64 FX-55Rubbing it in
Recommend.AMD Athlon™ 64 FX-53If you shell out a cool $733 on an exotic new processor from AMD, you're now going to be getting an even faster CPU, one with more distance between itself and the Athlon 64 3400+ or the Pentium 4 Extreme Edition 3.4GHz.
Recommend.ATI ALL-IN-WONDER 9800 PRODual monitors aside, however, it's a rare card that does everything the All-In-Wonder 9800 Pro can do, and I know of no other card that does everything as well as this one does.
Recommend.Intel Pentium 4 2.4GHzClick to read entire review/article!
Recommend.Intel Pentium 4 3.2GHzClearly, Intel has the upper hand right now in desktop processors, and the situation doesn't seem likely to change until, perhaps, when AMD delivers its new Athlon 64 processor this fall.
Recommend.AMD Athlon 64 3000+That is, it's an exceptional performer for 3D gaming, and it has few weaknesses overall. Versus the Pentium 4 3GHz, the A64 3000+ is a very good value.
Recommend.AMD Athlon XP 1900+The Athlon XP 1900+ utterly dominated our suite of performance tests, winning every test save two...
Recommend.AMD Athlon XP 2200+...the CPU just wouldn't go any faster than about 1.89GHz. And even at that speed, it was on the ragged edge.
Recommend.AMD Athlon XP (Barton) 2600+...the 2600+ took top honors in Business Winstone, flouted its FPU in Serious Sam, burned through our test render in POV-Ray, and absolutely laid down the smack in ScienceMark.
Recommend.Albatron KX400+ ProThe KX400+ Pro is an impressive first offering from Albatron; it performs well, and its stability was impeccable during our testing. However, I'm not sure to whom I would recommend the board.
Recommend.Albatron KM18G ProAt just over $100, the KM18G Pro is the best nForce2 platform I've seen for Joe Sixpack and the critical mass of average consumers and business users.
Recommend.AMD Athlon 64 3400+The benchmarks put the Athlon 64 3400+ just behind the Athlon 64 FX-51 in terms of overall performance, and I suppose AMD's "3400+" model number is warranted, at least for gamers, for whatever that's worth.
Rating:
10/11		SOYO SY-K7V DRAGON PlusSoyo did what they set out to do with the DRAGON Plus: take many of the things an enthusiast craves, and wrap them up in a nice, complete package.
Recommend.SOYO SY-KT400 DRAGON UltraWith the SY-KT400 DRAGON Ultra, Soyo has once again raised the bar on its innovative line of DRAGON motherboards.
Recommend.SOYO SY-P4I875P DRAGON 2At the end of the day, Soyo's SY-P4I875P is a stable Canterwood board that should set storage enthusiasts' heart's afire.
Recommend.eVGA e-GeForce FX 5900 SEThe GeForce FX 5900 XT is no doubt a very fast, very affordable graphics option for enthusiasts and gamers on a budget, and right now I'd recommend it over the Radeon 9600 XT.
Recommend.Chaintech 9CJS ZenithUnfortunately, for all its bundled goodness, there are a few areas where the Zenith 9CJS misses out on perfection.
Recommend.ATI Radeon 9800XT 256MB...the Radeon 9800 XT excels at the things one wants from a $499 graphics card.
Recommend.ABIT AT7-MAX2The competition has its own massively integrated motherboards, but with the AT7 MAX2, Abit has managed to stay a couple of steps ahead.
Recommend.ABIT AN7Indeed, the motherboards that support the XP are better than ever, and the AN7 is an excellent example of the trend.
Rating:
10/11		ABIT BD7-RAIDI would consider the BD7-RAID on the strength of its features, even if it doesn't win every performance test outright.
Recommend.ABIT IT7-MAX2 V2.0The IT7 MAX bristles with useful integrated peripherals, and it's built with an eye to the future.
Recommend.ABIT IT7-MAX2 V2.0The IT7 MAX bristles with useful integrated peripherals, and it's built with an eye to the future.
Recommend.ABIT BH7For hardcore enthusiasts and overclockers looking to build a screaming system without breaking the bank, I have yet to see a better board.
Recommend.ABIT IS7-VSetting the Game Accelerator Techonology feature aside, the IS7 is a solid Springdale board with good overclocking abilities and a couple of nice extras, such as the Firewire support.
Recommend.ABIT IS7...the IS7 is a solid Springdale board with good overclocking abilities and a couple of nice extras, such as the Firewire support. GAT, however, basically transforms the IS7 into a board capable of competing with Canterwood solutions.
