    CNET Review

    June 13, 2008

    The Good: Quad-core CPU, 3GB of memory, and 500GB hard drive represent compelling mix of components for the price; open graphics slot provides upgrade path; relatively free of bloatware.

    The Bad: Similarly spec'd dual-core PCs cost less; nothing in the way of value-added extras such as Bluetooth, integrated Wi-Fi, or HDMI.

    The Bottom Line: The Gateway GT5674 is a low-cost quad-core desktop that delivers excellent bang for the buck. The problem is, most mainstream users don't need four processing cores and can get away with a dual-core PC for even less.
