CNET have published a review of the Gateway SX2851-41 desktop PC. 'Gateway hasn't taken a great risk with the tweaks to the SX case. The matte black plastic perhaps looks a bit friendlier than the older glossy black design. You may also appreciate the exterior accent lighting that rims the top tray and illuminates the Gateway insignia on the front of the case. We like the dedicated light power toggle on top of the case. We also can't help but feel that the combination of the Gateway logo and Windows and Intel badges on the front of the case really takes away from what could be a pleasantly simple design. Apple was successful in beating back Intel's demands that it include an Intel Inside logo on its systems. We'd love to see Gateway, its Acer parent, or any Windows PC company take a similar stand.'

CNET have published a review of the Gateway DX4840-03e desktop PC. 'The Gateway comes with an HDMI output, and while its midtower design isn't well suited to the living room, we're happy with its ability to play HD video from various online sources. We tried Apple's repository of QuickTime movie trailers, YouTube, Hulu, and Netflix, and, as it should for a PC in this price range, the Gateway handled every video file we threw its way. We're also satisfied with the Gateway's upgradability. You get a spare PCI Express graphics card slot, as well as a single 1X PCI Express slot for a TV tuner or some other expansion card. You also get room for a second hard drive, although the RAM slots are all occupied. We expect most users shopping for a PC in this price range will find the included 8GB of memory sufficient.'

A review of the Gateway FX6831-01 desktop PC has been posted over at CNET. 'Whether the Gateway FX6831-01's "armored" front panel and red exterior lighting will appeal to you depends on your aesthetic sense. From a value standpoint, this desktop Gateway is one of the best gaming PC deals available for $1,299, offering enough power to play current titles with no hassle. Enthusiasts might demand more upgradeability. Extras like wireless networking and a Blu-ray drive are absent, and the design could become polarizing if you plan to put this PC on prominent display. Based purely on performance for the dollar, we'd recommend the Gateway FX6831-01 to anyone looking for a fast midrange gaming desktop.'

PC Magazine have published a review of the Gateway FX6831-03 gaming desktop. 'The design of the new version of the FX6800 chassis is a clear-cut improvement over the previous model, yet cues like the red accents and FX logo remind you that Gateway is continuing an existing brand. The FX6831-03's chassis is made up primarily of black metal and plastic, but there are backlit red vents on the sides of the top panel that give this PC some gaming flair. Twisting a ring around the power button turns the accent lights off and on. The ring's twisting action feels a little flimsy, as does the plastic on the front panel of the system. Tap the plastic with your fingers and it just echoes the word "cheap." It takes away from the overall image of the system, but you will likely overlook these details when you find out the system is so well equipped.'

CrunchGear have published a review of the Gateway SX2840 desktop PC. 'The Gateway SX2840 is the ideal computer for most people. Sure, it's not going to play Crysis at 100FPS, but who cares? Most people don't want to spend that kind of money. The SX2840 hits that sweet spot of being a fast enough that it's not annoying, but slow enough that you're not paying supercomputer prices. It's hard to quantify this because frame rates and seek times don't really apply to a computer in this situation. It's great for browsing the web, writing email, running a word processing program, looking at pictures - all those basic things that most people who use a computer spend the majority of their time doing.'
