HP Blackbird 002
Editors' rating
Spectacular
9.3
out of 10
- The good: Best-in-class design; platform-bending hybridization helps the system, your upgrade path, and potentially the industry at large; aggressive overclocking leads to record-setting performance.
- The bad: Aggressive exterior design not for everyone; skimpy one-year parts-and-labor warranty.
- The bottom line: HP's Blackbird 002 earns the highest rating this editor has ever given a desktop PC. Its design rivals the Apple Mac Pro, it takes risks that benefit your upgrade path, it's fast, and it's competitively priced. If you can afford it, and you want a high-end gaming PC, buy this one. End of story.
