Pros: Good aesthetics and very well built for the price. I like the hdd mounting system - maintains good airflow and reduces noise. Comes with an excellent Fractal R2 series 120mm fan that can run silently while still moving enough air for a case intake. This is an excellent case for a budget quiet pc build.

Cons: Needed a fan controller to get the case fan running silent - at 12V it was actually pretty loud, and the fan requires voltage regulation (no pwm). PSU mounts at the top of the case. Cable routing requires some creativity - no space behind the motherboard etc.

Overall Review: Front panel for USB / audio is on the side of the front panel; to your right if you're facing the case. Looks really sharp though. I had to add an exhaust fan in back for this case to run silent without overheating; including the fan controller mentioned above this added $20 to my build. Not bad, really. For low-impact computing (i.e. no gaming or multimedia production) this probably wouldn't be necessary.

Pros: Heatsinks excellent, looks great, works perfectly at 1333 9 9 9 24

Cons: Although my motherboard and cpu are able this memory won't clock at 1600 without increased timings (11's and 12's). OS detects it as 10666, not 12800.

Overall Review: One of the heatsinks was solid and one was a bit wonky; it was easy to fix so no big deal.

Pros: It's silent from a distance of 2 feet running at 12v in an exhaust fan configuration. It moves air. Could probably serve as a lone case fan in a low-demand home/office machine. Comes with silicone noise damping mounting thingies. Looks great in my black and white case.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: Took me a while to figure out the silicone mounting thingies but it was worth every minute, they're great.

Pros: It's a good drive for everyday use. It was packaged correctly and was not dead on arrival.

Cons: Not the fastest drive around but again, it's perfect for what it is.

Overall Review: Bare drives on Newegg seem to be hit or miss - my friend ordered one at the same time and his arrived dead and poorly packaged. I wouldn't have ordered this if I hadn't been prepared to return it and wait a few weeks.

Pros: Big, was on sale, color & contrast are excellent. Has all the connectors I could possibly need. Good aesthetics. Menu system is easy to use. Has those nice buttons that sense your touch without moving parts.

Cons: Washed out color / poor contrast when viewing from an angle - not for watching movies with your friends. ***This is a non-issue for a typical desktop workstation or gaming machine***

Overall Review: The monitor's indicator light is somewhat large and white; it shines out of the center of the monitor, just under the DELL logo. I like it but some may find it irritating if you use the monitor in a dark room. You could probably cover it in a way that wouldn't be visible.

Pros: Budget power supply over 500W that actually has good 12v rail amperage, is reasonably cool and quiet. Hippie friendly green is a plus too.

Cons: Not modular; lots of unused cables in my case.

Overall Review: The cables come with a nice webbing that makes them easy to manage in case for a non-modular supply.
