MESH Matrix II 920 Desktop System Review

While AMD's new Phenom II CPUs will undoubtedly, and quite rightly, get a lot of the online column inches today, there's more to today's launch than CPUs alone. Today also sees the begin of a new platform from AMD, which they've codenamed "Dragon", which combines these new Phenom II processors with the company's Radeon HD 4800 series graphics solutions and the 790GX motherboard chipset to create what they hope will be a compelling platform for system builders. To coincide with this launch we've managed to take a look at a system based around the Dragon platform for ourselves courtesy of MESH, who today launch two systems based around this specification. Our focus here is on their Matrix II 920 offering, which sports a Phenom II X4 920 processor together with a Gigabyte 790GX-based motherboard and Radeon HD 4850 graphics board.
