28 June 2004, 00:00
If you've got anything recent as far as Socket A goes, you're not going to see much to tempt you to the -E Deluxe, unless WiFi is your thing. Enthusiasts ...

XFX GeForce 6800 Ultra
25 June 2004, 00:00

DFI LANPARTY PRO875B Canterwood
22 June 2004, 00:00
DFI\'s produced another well-rounded motherboard that demands to be shortlisted for top-end S478 machines. Priced in the neighbourhood of £120, it also represents good i875P value. Our reservations lie in ...

ASUS P4C800-E i875P Motherboard
22 June 2004, 00:00
Priced at just below the £140 mark makes it an expensive motherboard. We feel that it has enough going for it to justify that price tag. It may not be ...

Albatron PX875P Pro
22 June 2004, 00:00

Chaintech Zenith ZNF3-250
18 June 2004, 00:00
There's nothing much intrinsically wrong with the Zenith ZNF3-250. Great audio. FireWire, external boxes and a mouth-watering bundle are definite plusses. We, however, would recommend a revision B board with ...

Rock Xtreme XTR-3.2 Laptop
29 May 2004, 00:00
If Rock can position this exact specification at, say, £1499 including VAT and delivery we'd be more inclined to look upon it favourably. For £1800+ we'd really be looking at ...

MSI K8N Neo Platinum Edition nF3 250Gb

Shuttle XPC SB61G2 v3.0
22 May 2004, 00:00
It\'s a tidy, polished implementation of a well trodden concept, with the odd rough edge here and there. But nobody else does a Pentium 4 SFF box quite like Shuttle, ...
-
XGI Volari Duo V8 Ultra 256MB
22 May 2004, 00:00
It's hard to recommend XGI's top card with the current driver set. The company needs to bolster image quality before concentrating on all-out performance, really. A promising product that's severly ...
