20 of the Worst PC Setups October 2017

I’m sure at some point you’ve had a bad PC setup. Maybe moving into a new place, waiting for a new desk to arrive or you just ran out of room. I can remember my horrible PC setups from when I was living at the dorms in college. If you have ever ventured over to the Shitty Battlestations sub-reddit you will find a lot of horrible PC setups. We will are going to pick 20 each month and feature them as 20 of the Worst PC setups for that month. Here are some of the bad ones from October.

AMD Radeon RX 550 review: New (entry) card on the block

On Hardware.info you'll find the latest high-end hardware news, but developments in the budget segment are equally interesting. Fresh in from AMD, we'll look at the AMD Radeon RX 550, based on the new Polaris 12 GPU with only 512 stream processors. We’ll see what it’s capable of by looking at the Gigabyte RX 550 Gaming OC.

Looking at the specs, the RX 550 doesn’t really excite; 512 shaders and a clock speed of 1183 MHz with 2GB of GDDR5 memory. At the heart of this card however, we find the newest GPU in AMD’s Polaris series, which means it’s produced on Globalfoundries’ 14nm process. That makes it the first new AMD chip in this segment since the ”Oland” chip from 2013.

Polaris 12 has 2,2 million transistors and, at 101 mm2, has an 18% smaller surface area than the Polaris 11, which is found in the RX 460 and RX 560. You would expect a larger reduction in size seeing as the amount of stream processors has been halved, but two out of ten compute units have been disabled and are still physically present. Beside this, the memory-bus is still 128 bits, using up additional space on the die.

be quiet! Pure Base 600 Case Review

Dell Inspiron 27 7000 All-In-One Review: Rocking AMD Ryzen And Radeon

Dell has continued to push the recent design innovations of its premium XPS family further down its product stack, in an effort to enhance its mainstream consumer products as well. When we reviewed Dell’s XPS 27 7760 All-in-One desktop PC earlier this year, we were impressed with its performance, features, and design aesthetic, including its impressive sound system. Continuing that effort to marry both form and function, we received the new Dell Inspiron 27 7000 All-in-One desktop for review. It turns out this system was the winner of a 2017 COMPUTEX Design and Innovation Award, but it has been updated since then. The model we have in for testing happens to be powered by something new and innovative from AMD under its hood...

Intel Gaming PC - November 2017

This computer system is specifically geared towards gaming at WQHD resolution. That means a PC with a high-end graphics card and a processor that is fast enough to support the GPU, but also a fast monitor to display the rendered frames in the best way.
