Mesh X-treme FX60 review
The X-treme FX60 is Mesh's attempt to deliver the goods in both price and performance. It uses the fastest gaming CPU available and twin graphics cards, so we didn't expect it to be very cheap. As is often the case, however, Mesh has surprised us by selling the PC at a reasonable price point Read more

Shuttle XPC P2 3700G review
If you thought Shuttle small-form-factor PCs were dainty, then think again. The XPC P2 3700G provides enough grunt to embarrass most desktops twice its size. If you've ever fancied a miniature PC with Alienware-type performance, you're looking in the right place Read more

Dell XPS 710 H2C review
Despite buying Alienware, Dell continues to produce outstanding gaming rigs, such as the brand-new XPS 710 HTC. This beast introduces two elements we've never seen on a Dell -- factory overclocking and a space-age water-cooling system Read more

Alienware Area-51 7500 review
Alienware has left the rickety build quality of its garish cases behind and created a truly menacing PC with the Area-51 7500, a brutally quick gaming system with top-of-the-line components and performance to match. It's very loud, but if you're after off-the-shelf gaming power there's none better Read more

Alienware Aurora 7500 (FX-60) review
The Aurora 7500 is the perfect showcase for Alienware's ability to produce high-performance PCs. Its specification makes for impressive reading -- Alienware has equipped it with not one, but two of the latest graphics cards, 1 terabyte of physical storage and the fastest gaming processor available Read more

Dell Dimension XPS 600 review
Playing Peter Jackson's King Kong on the XPS 600 is like strapping on a Kong suit and parachuting into the Amazon -- this is premium, rip-snorting performance. For your £3,000, you get a 3.2GHz processor, 1TB -- a terabyte -- of memory and 1GB of RAM Read more

Alienware Aurora Star Wars Edition review
Alienware's Special Edition Star Wars Aurora makes you want to yell, "Prepare to make the jump to lightspeed!" and slap the side of the chassis. Strictly for Lucas completists, this PC comes in Dark and Light Side flavours and offers blistering Nvidia GeForce-powered graphical performance for an eye-watering price Read more

Alienware Aurora 7500 SLI review
She's ported and relieved, and she's stroked and bored -- she'll do a hundred and forty with the top end floored. A 60s muscle car of a PC, the Alienware Aurora 7500 SLI will knock your bobby socks off. It's horribly expensive, but if you need a reliable, plug-and-play super-gaming platform, accept no substitute Read more

Shuttle XPC P 2500G review
The small, sleek but hugely powerful Shuttle XPC P 2500G is perfect if you want a gaming PC without the boy-racer frills. Gaming performance is impressive considering the single graphics card, not far behind the Mesh X-treme FX60 PC with its dual-graphics card -- if you want a tiny box with the latest components in, it's hard to beat Read more

Acer Aspire E300 review
The 64-bit Gamer version of the Aspire E300 uses a single-core Athlon 64 3500+ CPU, Windows XP Home Edition and a 200GB hard drive. Particularly good value for money, it produces respectable gaming performance for only £600, a bargain in our book -- and it doesn't make you look like a car-modding chav Read more
