Reviews of the ABS Ultimate M6 Sniper - Athlon 64 FX 60 2.6 GHz - 19" TFT
-
CNET Review
The Good: Excellent overall performance; dual-core FX-60 CPU and SLI graphics; no instability issues.
The Bad: Noisy fans; no front- or top-mounted USB, FireWire, or ports; 550-watt power supply limits high-end expansion; no 150GB Raptor drives offered.
The Bottom Line: Its Athlon 64 FX-60 CPU isn't overclocked, and its pair of graphics cards can be trumped, but the ABS Ultimate M6 Sniper is still plenty fast for gamers and boasts excellent build quality, a good mix of high-performance component, and stable operation.
