Advantages: Good Advice, Good Recommended Charts

Disadvantages: Too Many Adverts!, Only 3 Game Reviews

First of all, to make it clear, PC Advisor is NOT a magazine for gamers. There are only about 3 game reviews a month and these are brief.
Instead the magazine is all about as the title suggests, Advice.

And in this area it delivers. There's so much advice in each months magazine that there is always something there you didn't know and that you find useful. From how to install hardware in your PC to common Windows hints and problems.

There is a wealth of Top 10 Recommended charts, and Hardware like Monitors, Graphics Cards, Printers are all reviewed, rated and put into a top 10 chart with the customer in mind.

I have always found this magazine to be useful when trying to solve a problem or for advice on what to buy and at just £2.99 you can't go far wrong buying this magazine.

One gripe I do have of this magazine though, is that there is way too much adverts in it! About a quarter of the magazine is adverts!

Overall though a good magazine for advice but NOT for gamers.
