Pros: Looks nice, its very compact and gets the job done.

Cons: Quite slow transfer rates, but thats usb fault.

AMAZING!!

Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 - Core 2 Duo Wolfdale Dual-Core 2.8 GHz LGA 775 65W Desktop Processor - BX80571E7400
Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 - Core 2 Duo Wolfdale Dual-Core 2.8 GHz LGA 775 65W Desktop Processor - BX80571E7400

Pros: I upgraded from a single core old amd 4000+ on the 393 socket. THis core 2 duo tech is so much better, enough said! Dual core makes a vast improvment over a single core, playing intensive games, while downloading and encoding some music files and instant messaging at the same time: ALL NO LAG. thx intel

Cons: wasnt free :P

Overall Review: cpu fan is really quiet! no point in getting the higher ghz cpus, this one can overclock on stock fan stable past 3GHz easily.

great graphics card

Pros: Runs fast, everything runs amzing well. Crysis is the killer benchmark and in a ful out battle, enthusiast settings with AA at 8x running at 1440x900 it doesnt stutter ever! Fan doesnt make a sound

Cons: does get hot, it warms up my whole aluminum case, but my case acts as a heatsink so it does its job well

Overall Review: did not come with a Y power dongle even though it is listed on the included contents.

Great cheap atx board

Pros: Cheap Stable Overclocking ability for memory, cpu and graphics

Cons: cannot control system fan, only cpu fan. so unless u have an external controller, the system fan will run at max speed.

Overall Review: would be nice to have four memory slots, but its ok for the price.
