Aria.co.uk Gladiator Z68 Core i5 4.4 GHz Bundle

PC Mark Vantage

Although the Gladiator appears to be quite a way behind the rest, this is onboard graphics vs a GTX570. Now considering that we've got 12 shaders up against 480. When you take that into account it's clear that onboard graphics have come a long way from the days when they struggled to even play Freecell.

PC Mark 7

Putting the Gigabyte Z68MA-D2H up against it's much bigger brother the UD5, it doesn't come away from the contest with any shame at all. It's the little motherboard that could.

Following the excellent P67-based i5 Gladiator bundle from Aria, we take a look at one based on the Z68 board. Is it just as good?

Another bargain bundle from Aria and this time with a Z68 motherboard and some Muskin Copper Head. The IGP is better than expected as well 30 fps in Far Cry 2 is pretty good, just don't ask if it can run Crysis
