Gateway DX4831-03

You don't have much room to upgrade the Gateway DX4831-03, but you probably won't need to. Aside from its indifferent gaming performance, this midsize tower desktop PC--the first in Gateway's DX line that we've reviewed since last year's DX-4200-11--does an excellent job of delivering a good mix of power and features. As a mainstream PC, the DX4831-03 is tough to beat, especially for its $850 price (as of June 7, 2010). The DX4831-03's 3.2-GHz Core i5-650 processor is actually a more advanced chip than the 2.88-GHz Core i5-750 found in the DX4831-03's chief competitor on our Top 10 Mainstream Desktop PCs chart, the Micro Express MicroFlex 75B. With 8GB of DDR3-1333 memory and the ability to overclock automatically to 3.46GHz, the Core i5-650 helps the system chug to an excellent score of 131 on our WorldBench 6 suite of tests. This puts this machine's general performance on a par with the MicroFlex 75B's score of 132. The Gateway system's 1TB of storage crushes the MicroFlex 75B's relatively puny 150GB. But Microflex's machine is the clear winner in graphics performance: Its ATI Sapphire 4890 graphics card sustained a frame rate of 82.0 frames per second on PC World's Unreal Tournament 3 benchmark--much better than the 51.7 fps that the DX4831-03's nVidia GeForce GT220 card managed on the same test under the same conditions (tested at 2560 by 1600 resolution, at high quality).

Gateway DX4831-03

The Gateway DX4831-03 is an $849 fixed-configuration desktop that mirrors the jack-of-all-trades ambitions we've seen from other PCs in this price range. It's no more or less distinct than Dell's retail Inspiron i580 system; the Dell offers wireless networking, the Gateway a Blu-ray drive, for a slightly higher price. Neither feature, in our opinion, is a must-have in a tower desktop, and with matching specs, each is a capable performer underneath the extras. With few other material differences between the two PCs, picking one over the other boils down to little more than your preference for watching disc-based HD movies via your PC or minimizing cable clutter. If the DX4831-03's case looks familiar, it's because Gateway uses the same chassis throughout its DX800-series desktop family. You'll find the same glossy black plastic exterior on the slightly lower-end DX4831-01e, as well as on older midrange Gateway's stretching back a year or so. The design is innocuous enough compared with that of other mainstream PCs, although we continue to appreciate the USB/media card bar that juts out for easy access from the front of the system.
