The Buildegg Components section gives you instant access to top products for each piece of computer hardware.
AMD released a new chipset for motherboards, the AMD890 series. They are AM3 sockets with the SB850 south bridge.
The Intel H55/H57 Chipset Motherboards were added. Pair one of these with a Core i3 CPU, and you'll have a nice HTPC.
DDR2 Buildegg Scores are falling fast. Why? DDR3 is finally priced right! At the time of this post, 4GB of DDR3 costs the same as 4GB of DDR2.
All of the ATI 5000 series video cards have been added. These cards are pretty awesome, but don't forget about the (now older) ATI 4780 which is now on the cheap!
Core i5's have also come to market. The P55/Core i5 combo is supposed to be the 'mainstream' setup -- however it will still set you back a lot more than a smoking fast P45/Core 2 setup.
Select a component from the menu bar, and then choose a category from the drop down menu.
A table will list the top 5 products of that category.
The ranks are derived from the data displayed by the charts.
Compare the Buildegg Factor of the top products. The Buildegg Factor is a score giving to pieces of hardware
based on their category relative price and community reviews and ratings.
See how the hardware is scored over time. Also see the popularity of the hardware over time.
