Reviews of the WidowPC IX2 SLI - Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86 GHz
-
CNET Review
The Good: Fastest overall performance of PCs tested to date; polished hardware assembly; thoughtful software bundle and customization; three-year default parts-and-labor warranty.
The Bad: The price tag puts this system beyond the reach of all but the most passionate and the wealthiest.
The Bottom Line: Widow PC's IX2 SLI is one of the fastest PCs to come through our labs. You'll have to pay for it, and the price tag is higher than that of past performance-leading PCs, but for all the love and care put into this PC, if you can afford it and you have the passion for cutting-edge game play, you'll find few other desktops that can compete with this one.
