Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (Late 2015) review

Mid-range laptops often aim to do it all, but just as often fall short of that target. Dell’s Inspiron 15 7000 seems ready and loaded, though, with both an Intel quad-core and Nvidia GTX 960M graphics. Can it hit the mark?

Dell SE2716H review

Dell’s curved 1080p screen looks impressive on paper, but its high price has us wondering if compromising the resolution for a curve is better than upgrading to 1440p.

While most systems we test are decked out with every possible upgrade, the X51’s modest GTX 960, Intel Core i5, and PCIe solid state drive show there’s value in mid-range rigs.

Razer Blade Stealth (2016) review

MSI GS60 Ghost Pro review

The MSI GS60’s move to Skylake includes a new M.2 SSD and an upgraded GTX 970M, but it’s going to take more than an attractive price tag to convince gamers that wrestling with the Ghost Pro’s bloatware is worth their time.

Samsung CF591 27-inch monitor review

Sapphire Radeon RX 470 OC review

The RX 470 has a lot going for it, but the margin between the mid-tier offering and the top-end RX 480 is a slim one. Its sibling rivalry at its finest, and at least on the surface, there’s no obvious winner.
