Here NVIDIA are giving us a slightly faster model than the GT220 for an extra 20 pounds or so: the GeForce GT 240 1 GB. Is it better adapted for gaming and how does it do opposite the Radeon HD 5570? Quite short (16.7 cm), it's a full format card. You won't be able to fit it into an HTPC casing designed for low profile models. So mark a point up for the Radeon HD 5570 here – it's a low profile format card. In terms of noise and heat we can't tell you how the NVIDIA stock card performs. We received an MSI model with a proprietary cooling system (see inset). Another point for the Radeon here. At 113 W in idle, the GeForce GT 240 is far behind the Radeon's 72 W score. In load, things are the same: 161 W for the GeForce, 144 W for the ATI. Once again the Radeon has the advantage, though this should be taken in context. The HD 5570 carries the day on the GT 240 when texture filters are activated. Unfortunately, neither of these cards can run recent games properly with filters on. Without filters, both cards are at the same level. You then have to drastically lower settings levels to hope to conserve any fluidity.

Overview We're certainly warming to all-in-one computers, and if they continue to be as good the Dell Inspiron One 2320 we can happily see them taking over all of our desks. Positioning itself between low-end models such as the bargain Advent Discovery MT1804 or the well-balanced MSI Wind Top AE2210, its pricing comes in under high-end models such as the ultra-expensive Apple iMac 27-inch 2011 and...

A real Velcro PC at last Perhaps you’ve heard about our concept for the Velcro PC: a computer so small, light, and unobtrusive that you could literally affix it to the back of your HDTV. That concept might have finally arrived in Giada’s i50 PC. Similar to the original Giada Ion-100, the i50 is a serious step up over the original box. The most noticeable upgrade is in the brains department: Th...
