Pros: Great Price. Above average starter card. Runs very quietly and smoothly. Even though I upgraded my PSU, it WAS NOT needed for this card to work great.

Cons: Umm... won't save you from a nuclear holocaust.

Overall Review: This was the first hardware upgrade I've done on my store bought HP. WELL worth it. I play WoW and when I first loaded it, the smoothness of the graphics on the sign in screen did not prepare me for the difference a GOOD video card can make. I have no regrets.

Pros: - Key strokes are quiet enough I can write the (usual) novel or two (.. or more) when a discussion requires a lengthy response each night while my 12 month old daughter, who's a light sleeper, sleeps 15 feet away. - Real Estate on this one is utilized nicely in my opinion. It's not going to win any awards for being a supermodel on looks, but it sure is one that's nice enough that your dad would raise his glass and say "There you go!" - ON/OFF BUTTON!!! WOOOOOOOO!!! Those of you with children will fricking LOVE this button.

Cons: The plastic ring on the outside of the keyboard. It's not solidly attached/anchored on the keyboard. This isn't a deal breaker by any means. It's just a nit pick.

Overall Review: It feels right. Price is... up there, but it's worth it if you can spare it.
