Reviews of the Ultimate X8 III
-
CNET Review
The Good: Strong configuration for your PC dollar; plenty of room for post-purchase upgrades.
The Bad: Liquid cooling hardware too loud and too cumbersome; online support needs some work.
The Bottom Line: ABS's Ultimate X8 Stealth Extreme is most definitely not stealthy thanks to its loud cooling hardware, but for sheer bang-for-the-buck, this high-end gaming PC has a lot to recommend it. Whether you like it as is, or plan to make upgrades later, this PC makes a strong gaming box. Just don't expect it to win any design awards.
