Reviewed on July 19, 2010We have few reservations about this Gateway DX4840-03e. Even if it's not a particularly remarkable system, it's hard to argue that it falls short as a general purpose budget midtower. If that's all you're looking for, we can recommend this PC with little hesitation.TAGS:Gateway Inc., ASUS, graphics chip, 64-bit, multimedia, networking, USB port, HP
Reviewed on July 26, 2010Its newly designed tower, HDMI port, and generous hard-drive capacity aren't enough to make the Asus Essentio CM5671-05 stand out next to the HP Pavilion p6510y, a similarly priced system with a faster quad-core processor and built-in Wi-Fi. The Asus system is no slouch, and we recommend it to shoppers who are concerned with storage capacity rather than speed, but even amateur media editors will benefit from the HP p6510y's extra speed.TAGS:chassis, ASUS, HP Pavilion SlimLine, HP Pavilion, graphics chip, Ethernet LAN, Gateway Inc., optical drive, HP, 64-bit, Ethernet, LAN, AMD
