Velocity Micro Edge Z-55 (Intel Core i7-920)
Editors' rating: 4
The good: Fast overclocked Intel Core i7 processor; ample memory and graphics card power; provides enough performance to justify its upper midrange price.
The bad: Uses two graphics cards when a single, dual-chip card would have done the same work and allowed more room for upgrades.
The bottom line: Velocity Micro's Edge Z55 provides a powerful example of the leap ahead in performance afforded by Intel's new Core i7 CPUs. Velocity Micro's own overclocking efforts don't hurt either. Any PC gamer would love to make this upper midrange desktop their own.
