Image
PC Club joins our Systems Evaluation Program with the Enpower Fuzion 4, a budget PC that sells for $300 after mail-in rebates. We'll take a look at what a budget PC can tackle these days, and take a look at what a few extra dollars can do for a budget PC.

How Far We Have Come
Now that Red and Green have learned not to cheat as badly as they used to, does the consumer see it the same way? The fact of the matter is that now the gamers and hardware enthusiasts expect to see game specific optimizations for the "big" games. You want better performance for your hard-earned money and you deserve it. Along with these optimizations, we have to realize that no two images will ever be the same now.
