3. Gateway FX7020
Editors' rating: 7.8
The good: Capable gaming performance in most current PC titles; TV tuner provides some multimedia oomph.
The bad: 400-watt power supply might limit your 3D card upgrade path down the road.
The bottom line: Gateway's FX7020 matches an AMD quad-core CPU and a fast Nvidia graphics card to make a compelling gaming PC, with some basic multimedia features to boot. Upgraders looking for a deal might wish Gateway had added a beefier power supply, but as is, this is a fine PC for its price.
