Dell XPS 420 review
You know what to expect when you buy an XPS: good looks, high performance, and a substantially lighter wallet. Dell's latest effort, the XPS 420, delivers all these things and should appeal to anyone with a desire to edit video and images, and play games Read more

Alienware Area-51 X58 review
The Alienware Area-51 X58 has a name and a look that implies it's out of this world, and we would have to agree. With Intel's latest high-end processor and a pair of dual-chip ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 cards inside this desktop is a gamer's paradise. While the price may seem steep, compared to similarly specced models it's a bargain Read more

Mesh Elite Quad 6600 FX review
The Mesh Elite Quad 6600 FX is unbelievable value for money -- it has one of the fastest CPUs on the market, a ridiculous amount of memory and a fairly decent graphics card, all for under £700 Read more

Evesham Mini PC Plus review
The Mini PC is Evesham's second interpretation of the Apple Mac Mini. It's the same approximate shape and size but is now finished in black, and this time it comes with a host of newer and more powerful components that make it a more formidable multimedia PC Read more

Asus A33 review
The Asus A33 fulfills all the Media Center PC requirements. It's designed for the living room, looks more like a DVD player than a computer and it's fairly quiet. It also comes with a 300W amplifier for extra flexibility, and its 4GB of memory will launch videos in a snap Read more

Sony Vaio VGX-XL302 review
Sony's VGX-XL302 is a beast of a Media Center PC -- in more ways than one. It features dual tuners, so you can record one channel while watching another, and a pair of 250GB hard drives, but it'll gouge a huge hole in your wallet Read more

Sony Vaio VGC-RM1N review
The Sony Vaio VGC-RM1N, also known as the 'R Master', is definitely not for the cash-strapped -- it's a high-price, high-performance desktop that's designed to edit high-definition video. It boasts a quad-core Intel CPU, and unusually has not one but two chassis Read more

Advent Eco PC review
With petrol prices skyrocketing, there's no question: the cost of powering your electrical goods is getting higher and higher, too. Advent has released its Eco PC, a desktop computer that uses just 25W when idle. It comes in recycled packaging and has a few other features to help it run more efficiently, but it isn't cheap Read more

Dell Studio Hybrid review
While there are a plethora of nettops on the market that offer -- at a basic level -- the same sort of package performance as the Dell Studio Hybrid, they are not as customiseable. You can alter the Studio Hybrid both internally and externally according to your personal preferences. The icing on the cake? It is eco-friendly Read more

Asus Nova Lite Mini 2L review
The Asus Nova Lite Mini 2L is a Media Center PC that grabs our attention with its stylish black and silver looks -- it certainly won't look out of place in your lounge. Boasting plenty of connectivity options, a 250GB drive and quiet performance, it could suit your purpose Read more
