Pros: The speed of this machine, the effective RAM and dual core AMD.. It runs quiet as you well please, and emits a neat ice-blue ambiance under my desk. I've yet to have an error, yet to have unimpressive graphics. The Radeon card is perfectly acceptable, and the machine runs Dragon Age with full effects. Top notch, and the price can't be scoffed at!
Cons: It does come with a pretty unimpressive Radeon 4350, which again, with the rest of the machine performs rather nicely. I switched it out for a GeForce 9800 GT (note that this machine also doesn't come with a 6-pin power chord, luckily the card from EVGA does.) It's faster and more responsive (WITHOUT overclocking) than I could have imagined from a machine at this price range.
Other Thoughts: The box is rather large; I thought I had rather a large tower before, but this one is nearly twice the size. Which also allows for much expansion... Also, the front audio and USB ports are actually on the right side bottom of the tower. This actually turned out to be a blessing... with the tower sitting sideways, rather than front-on, the rear of the computer AND the front ports are dually accessible. I have absolutely nothing but great things to say about this machine, aside from the occasional 'if', which hasn't hindered me at all.

Pros: Runs very smooth. Runs WoW at High settings at about 30-35 FPS (Human eye can only detect ~30fps). I havn't raided with this computer but im pretty sure it will hold up just fine as WoW isnt a very graphics heavy game.
Cons: - Keyboard is terrible. My hands feel cramped and I constantly stroke the wrong keys. I consider myself a very good typer and with my laptop I never miss a key. Also, the backspace key over the big enter button is SMALL, always end up hitting the forward slash ( \ ) key. - Power Supply is good for now, but if you plan on ANY upgrades in the future, you will need a new one. The V12 Rail only has 16amps max and any decend video card will require atleast 25+amps on the V12 rail. - The Mobo / CPU only recognize the RAM as DDR3-1066 and both my attempts to change it to the rated speed of 1333 ended up in blue screens. Really isnt a problem though as DDR3 1333 is only 5% faster then DDR2-800 (Look it up if you have doubts).
Other Thoughts: Windows 7 Scores Processor - 6.5 (Non OC Score) Memort(RAM) - 7.2 (Non underclocked) Graphics Aero - 3.7 Gaming Graphics - 5.8 (Pretty good for such a low-end [$40] Video Card) Primary Hard Disk (Hard Drive) - 5.9
I overclocked the AMD Athlon II x2 250 to 3368.9GHZ (3.3GHz) with just a small FSB bump (up to 224mhz x15) and underclocked the RAM by one multiplier setting(Down to 800Mhz) and it runs stable. But after OC'ing the CPU it brings the RAM back up to around 900Mhz.
All in all this is a very solid system for the listed price, if you are looking for a solid WoW machine this is the computer for you, plus there is headroom for OC'ing and upgrading, the Case itself can fit a 8800GTX so video cards around that length will be fine for upgrades (JUST DONT FORGET TO UPGRADE THE PSU)
