A slimline case, capable of hosting a variety of powerful component to give you an attractive HTPC, or Media Centre PC, for far less than you'd think. Latest models include support for BluRay/HD combo players, Nvidia 8500gt graphics, and built in TV tuners.
Bad Points
Limits the range of graphics cards you can use, and location of PCI slots can mean a card with a big heat sink / fan will block the second slot. (However, you can now get slimline, low profile 8600gt, capable of running COD4, and Crysis with good frame rates at decent settings.
General Comments
If you're looking for a slim, attractive PC case, to fit a small desk, or sit alongside consoles and other AV equipment without standing out, this is the perfect choice.
With slimline/low profile 8600gts now available from Point Of View, MSI and Galaxy, the machine will not only be a media centre for films and music, but for high level gaming as well... Only the most hardcore gamer, who needs 4x AA, with full detail on models, textures and effects, at HD resolutions would need more.
Pay close attention to model numbers, and ensure that you get the Core 2 Duo model, as it's power supply is the only one that will support the higher powered graphics cards. Avoid the AMD chipset MBs.
Look for the s3050 specifically, and you can't go wrong... A great machine.
