ASRock P45XE-WiFiN LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: ASRock is the Chinese version of ASUS. US is for United States. Great mobo. Got my Q6600 up to 3.8 with stock cooling but its was running too hot w/ stock cooling. Currently running @ 3.2 w/ stock cooling w/ arctic freeze 5 (no voltage change). Supports Crossfire & RAID! CAN NOT COMPLAIN.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: CASE: APEVIA X-JUPITER-JR S-Type X-JPJST-MG CPU: Q6600 @ 3.2 (1.325v w/ stock cooling, idle 32C load below 50C) MOBO: ASRock P45XE-WiFiN RAM: OCZ Platinum 4GB DDR2 1066 GPU: Asus HD4870 X 2, Dark Knight Edition Crossfired!

NOT HAPPY

Saints Row 2 PC Game

Pros: It was fun for 10 minutes.

Cons: It wasn't fun after 10 minutes.

Overall Review: I usually like these kind of games but this one had too much unecessary options and having to drive to every mission just kills the thrill.

Pros: 1. Superduper Very Fast in Reading. 2. Fast in Writing. 2. No Noise 3. No Heat

Cons: 1. No T.R.I.M. Support. (I knew before hand so it's not fair to knock an egg out.) 2. $/MB is lower than VRaptor. (Kicks the poop outta VRaptor in Performance)

I Like it

Cooler Master Stacker 830 Evolution RC-830-KKN3-GP Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Cooler Master Stacker 830 Evolution RC-830-KKN3-GP Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case

Pros: 1. Newegg sent me CMStacker830 SE when I ordered CMStacker830 Evolution. 2. Price (It was on sale for 129.99 w/ free shipping; cant complain) 3. Physical Size (Lots of space so far) 4. Best air flow (Antec1200 and Xclio 2000 are other case that comes close to this case for air flow however xclio2000’s fans are 180mm which make it harder to replace when they die.) 5. Removable MB tray (Makes your life easy if u have aftermarket air or water cooler, I mean it) 6. Switchable front panel (Most cases have fixed opening direction) 7. Strong support for PSU (It doesn’t hang on air unlike many other cases with PSU placed on top) 8. Side panel fans' brackets have fan filters on them. 9. Your choice of 80 to 140mm side fans 10. No need for electric fan during the summer :)

Cons: 1. Price (It can be cheaper since it doesn’t include 2 HDD racket w/ 2 fans and 7 fans for the case ) 2. Physical size (Please check the dimension and think ahead about where u r gonna place this babe) 3. Some what fragile (To reduce the weight they made most of the parts with aluminum and plastic. At least I don’t think they did dis to save money, extra $20~30 wouldn’t turn customers away) 4. Shape edges (No wonder they included removable MB tray) 5. Not tool free at all (List of installation which requires ‘tool’: MB, PSU, HDD, GPU, and wheels) 6. It comes very close when fitting HD5970 (13.5" long) 7. Power LED connector was 3Pins which made me cut them into 2 which took me about 5~10 minutes. 8. Its Nov. rite now and this thing makes me cold :(

Overall Review: Just to clarify some points dat others claimed. Side 4 fan panel can be individually removed which allows you to fit aftermarket HS at the cost of 1 120mm fan. IT WILL CLOSE!! The front panel’s magnet is not weak at all, yall who said dat prolly received defects or u wanna open ur panel with chainsaw. IT WILL NOT OPEN ITSELF. I agree to the claim that dis isn’t a tool free installation case :/ I was deciding between Antec1200 n this and I chose this for one reason: uniqueness. I have 6 friends w/ Antec1200s period. Oh rite now its actually cheaper than Antec1200. Im not into leds or side windows. Its just not my taste as long as it keeps everything cool im good. I intentionally bought Zalman 120mm fans which don’t have leds and even replaced the front intake fan (w/ blue led). So no minus points for not having all fans cuz i was gonna replace it anyways. My Rig: Inside CMStacker 830SE, Q9650 @4.44 w/ 8G DDR2-1200 w/ HD5870x2 on GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P

RECOMMENDED

Left 4 Dead PC Game
Left 4 Dead PC Game

Pros: Best Co-op ever. Fast loading. Requires almost no spec for its graphics. Servers are up all night and all day long. IF YOU LIKE COUNTERSTIKE YOU WILL LIKE IT.

Cons: Many claims that you get bored pretty quick but it's just like counter stike. Same thing over and over however many DO find joy from that repetition.

Overall Review: I have been playing this game since the day 1. I'm still enjoying campaign and versus. I have a killer system but many of my friend have low spec computers and have no problem running this game. Don't listen to zombie haters and buy it! You dont have to have friends to have fun as long as you dont friendly fire people. Headset would be seriously recommended.
