CNET checked out this AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 powered PC, here's a short snip: "Velocity Micro's Raptor line of gaming systems are proven performers, and the new Raptor 64 DualX is no exception. Driven by AMD's new dual-core Athlon 64 FX-60 processor and a pair of powerful GeForce graphics cards, this pricey ($5,395), overclocked system is built for speed. It couldn't quite match the numbers put up by the recently reviewed (and more expensive) Falcon Northwest Mach V, and the Raptor 64 DualX crashed when we played Doom 3 at the highest detail settings. Both are surmountable problems, and while the crashing problem isn't unique to this system (the Falcon crashed in the same spot), the power supply issues at its source speak to a problem with high-end systems that might only get worse.."
