Asus Crosshair III Formula

This AM3 motherboard strikes a very fine balance between features and price.

In essence the new Crosshair III is an M4A79T Deluxe with some useful extra features that are essentially free of charge. Brilliant!

Asus Republic of Gamers G11CD – PC Review

The Asus ROG G11CD is proof that you don't have to spend more than £1,000 to get a solid gaming system.

The Asus ROG G11CD is a competent system for 1080p gaming, especially on less demanding titles – like those designed for esports. The Core i5 processor is a solid bit of kit, too, and the machine looks the part thanks to its Mayan patterns and RGB LEDs.

Asus Republic of Gamers GT51CH – PC Review

The latest big brand to try its hand at building a proper gaming PC is Asus, and the firm has form when it comes to this market – its Republic of Gamers range is packed with laptops, motherboards, graphics cards and peripherals.

This system is designed as a barnstorming, no-holds-barred gaming beast, but it misses the mark in most of the important departments.
