Gateway FX6800-09
A 2.66GHz Intel Core i7 920 processor is the heart and soul of this $1650 (as of August 23, 2009) system. Though the Core i7 920 is the entry-level version of Intel's latest CPU design, it gives the FX6800-09 a healthy power boost. Our test machine ...

Options fair, USB port count good, hot swappable SATA good, poor internal design.
Poor quality, power cables for SATA hard swap not mated at factory; rubber footpads are glued,fall off in moving the unit; lack of cooling & cooling options allow hard drives to overheat. Tech support parrot: don't open case it will void warranty

Manufacturer's Description
Turn your stimulus into stimulust with Gateway's gaming supercomputer. The Gateway FX6800-09 desktop is powered by a hyper-threaded Intel Core i7 processor, with an 8-thread CPU architecture with automatic acceleration. Memory is three-channel 1066MHz DDR3, and the incredible graphics come thanks to the NVIDIA GTX 280 with DDR3 discrete video memory. All of that means the Gateway FX6800-09 is a leviathan - so it makes sense that it has a massive hard drive and Gigabit Ethernet standard. And...
