Solid motherboard!

Pros: I didn't see any of the problems with my board that other owners have complained about. This was one of my most reliable boards. The board have a good balance of features i.e. plenty of SATA and fan headers, USB ports, etc. The only thing I really didn't like was the new format for tuning suite, but that is just preference.
Cons: I can't really think of any conundrums that I had with this board; it was a pleasure to use and served me well.
stick with stock

Pros: Looks pretty cool, it's low profile and pretty easy install- oh pretty quiet also
Cons: Doesn't work any better that a stock Intel cooler; my temps were the same or higher.
Overall Review: I knew I was buying a cheap cooler and not to expect too much, but this is really not worth the time unless you are just trying to replace a bad stock cooler.
Does not come with a valid Product Key

Pros: None
Cons: Does not come with a valid product key
Overall Review: Not worth the money if it's not valid
It works but it is a lot louder than I had expexted.

Pros: Not much to say here so far other than it's still working.
Cons: Makes a lot of noise, mainly thumping. I have used a lot of different HDD's and this one is the loudest yet.
Overall Review: I am typically a Western Digital user, but have best trying out the Deskstars lately. I believe I will be going back to western digital because they have never let me down.
Drains faster than I would have expected.

Pros: At least it works.
Cons: Drains down way faster than I would have expected. Like many thing we get off the internet these day it arrived with no instructions and I haven't been able to locate a users manual for it yet.
Overall Review: I bought this and another of a different brand at the same time; the Fremo was rated at higher mAh so I would think it would run longer and charge more devices. WRONG! The cheaper, lower rated one has more features , is easier to use and outlasts the Fremo by 2X at least.
Coboc SATA cable

Pros: Price and aesthetics
Cons: The cable I received were shorter than described and they aren't as tough as most SATA cables; these are the only SATA cables I have ever had fail on me.
Overall Review: Good price! Order them long and be gentle with them.
