MadOnion.com Introduces XL-R8R
September 22, 2000
The World’s First Intelligent PC Hardware Recommendations Service
XL-R8R Provides Personalized and Unique Recommendations On How to Improve PC Performance
Developed for the PC user interested in exploring their system, XL-R8R tells individuals precisely how to enhance their PC’s performance – XL-R8R not only tells the user how to maximize the efficiency of their home office applications and improve their gaming experience, it also offers solutions for issues such as how to improve their PC’s performance in order to optimize their Video/DVD experience.
XL-R8R works by gathering a matrix of performance indicators from the user’s PC system in order to inspect the PC’s hardware configuration. Having attained this information, XL-R8R then accesses MadOnion.com’s Internet PC Performance Database in order to provide detailed performance analysis and upgrade recommendations tailored specifically for each individual user. The performance database contains hundreds of thousands of 3DMark, Video2000, and SYSmark2000 results and provides the user with a PC Performance Score that reflects results from comparable systems from around the globe.
“Not everyone who owns a PC system is a computer expert, but many of these users want to know more about which component of their computer – from the video card to the CPU to the RAM – to upgrade in order to improve their PC’s performance,” said Nathan Harley, VP of Marketing, MadOnion.com. “XL-R8R allows PC users to tap into our extensive PC Performance Database of over 1 million benchmarking results and share the expertise of our global community of users.”
Key Features of XL-R8R include:
- XL-R8R is the world's first Intelligent PC Hardware Upgrade Recommendations Service, developed by MadOnion.com and delivered by its vast PC Performance Database
- The very latest in 3D-Graphics: XL-R8R's visuals treat users to the very latest in PC-Graphics, and give them an idea of where PC games could be going in the future.

- Know Your PC: Users can teach themselves the most important internal components of their beloved beige box. Entertain the many wonderful possibilities of PC upgrading.
- Boost System Performance... for Free: Make sure things run as smoothly and as fast as they can with the latest tips and tricks from MadOnion.com.
- All Points Maintenance Check: XL-R8R makes maintaining a PC for maximum efficiency an absolute breeze.
- Compare and Share: XL-R8R gives users a system score, as well as a detailed and summarized System report, that allows them to compare results and system specs with friends.
