5. Uberclok Ion
Editors' rating: 7.7
The good: Strong, affordable gaming configuration with overclocked CPU and GPU; accessible Web site makes shopping for a system easy; upgrade room thanks to SLI-capable motherboard.
The bad: Difficult to add second hard drive; clunky-looking case.
The bottom line: Thanks to its overclocked CPU and 3D card, the Uberclok Ion delivers excellent performance for its price. It also offers a reliable upgrade path due to its SLI motherboard. We also like its Web site. We'd like to see more from Uberclok before we make too strong a recommendation, but this system makes a great first impression.
Price: $1,999
