The FX540XT offers great performance for sure, but it's too loud, too old, and too unstable to recommend in its current condition.
Introduction
Gateway has recently revamped its FX line of gaming desktops - internally at least. Though it looks the same as other older FX machines we’ve seen from Gateway, this one is easily the most powerful Gateway ever assembled, and even includes a factory-overclocked quad-core processor running at a steamy 3.66GHz. Though its performance is generally excellent, we think Gateway has pushed this machine’s CPU a bit too much, as the BTX induction fan is way too loud and we were able to make it blue screen on cue. It’s also puzzling to us why Gateway builds “gaming” rigs and then loads the exact same OS image it uses on every single Gateway PC, treating it like any run-of-the-mill machine. The Gateway FX540XT has a base price of $3799.99 USD.
