  The Good: Best value and game performance in its class; overclockable CPU; attractive compact design.

  The Bad: Upgrading requires a few extra steps; pricey wireless networking option; no easy-to-use overclocking software.

  The Bottom Line: The Maingear Prelude has the best bang for the buck among midrange gaming PCs. It also has a certain stocky visual appeal. It's missing a few features, and you'll have to jump through a few hoops to make upgrades, but on balance, this system is a great deal.
