Micron Millennia Max 500

  

Micron Millennia Max 500


SUMMARY



PRO: Blazing speed, multimedia components including a 6X DVD-ROM drive, good manual
CON: Most expensive PC on the chart


If you plan on wringing every last ounce of performance out of your next PC, check out Micron's Millennia Max 500. It sells for a hefty $2899, but it's the fastest Win 98 PC on the chart and has a wagonload of features, including a Zip drive; a crisp, bright 19-inch monitor; and one of the few 6X DVD-ROM drives we've seen. However, subscribers in our most recent Reliability and Service survey rated Micron's support quality as just fair.

The Max 500's multimedia capabilities impressed us. Our unit's Diamond Viper V550--although no longer the most up-to-date model--was the number three AGP card in our Top 10 Graphics Boards in March. The combination of the Monsoon MM-1000's massive subwoofer and satellite speakers produces rich, full-range tones.

Micron includes comprehensive documentation with the Max 500 and offers solid warranties covering labor for one year and parts for three years (main RAM and CPU are covered for five years).
