PC Club Enpower Velocity 05 SLI - ZDNet

The PC Club's Enpower Velocity 05 SLI is touted as being the first quad-core CPU on the market specifically built for hardcore enthusiasts. In ZDNETs review this piece of this powerful gaming PC, a comparison is made with the Polywell Poly i680 SL1 system. 'We have to give PC Club credit, its Enpower Velocity 05 SLI gaming desktop comes in a distinctive package. Not everyone will want a blue-and-pink pastel fighting robot decorating their PC, but then not everyone will be able to shell out $3,140, the bare minimum you'll have to pay for the privilege.

Our review unit came with a quad-core Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 chip and a single GeForce 8800 GTX 3D card that bumps the price up to $3,799. With that price and those specs, this desktop competes fairly well against similar gaming PCs. We wish PC Club's online configurator was more helpful, as novices could easily configure a system with an anemic power supply that limits upgrading. But if you know what you're doing and you like robots, the Enpower Velocity 05 SLI offers the polish and performance we expect from a multithousand-dollar gaming desktop.'
