Love these

Pros: Two disks in RAID 0 give me ~900Mb/sec for just over $300. What more can you ask for...
Cons: ...
Signal Mover, Not Booster. Overpriced and mostly useless.

Pros: If you had 5 bars outside, but for some reason there was a dead zone in your house, this would bring the 5 bars inside to that area. That's how it works. Could be useful for a basement, or similar area where walls could block signal.
Cons: The coax cable included is cheap junk. Doesn't boost signal, it just "moves" it. Can't give you "more" bars than it receives outside. It's label of "booster" is very deceiving. That said, I've tried dozens of configurations with better RG6, placement, etc., etc. and have never had any measurable success with this device. It was for me a complete waste of money.
Overall Review: If you have 1 bar outside, you will get no more than 1 bar with this. If you have 3 bars, you don't get 4, or 5... just allows you to receive your 3 bars at the other end of the wire if you had a dead zone inside. I've had this thing for a few years and tried it in
Lasted 7 years

Pros: Gave me 7 years of solid performance. Wish I could find another one :)
Cons: Can't buy a new one.
Don't Buy This - Really Slow

Pros: It fits in the PCI-E Slot... No problems connecting and signal strength seems good.
Cons: Will not maintain connection speeds over 1Mbps for more than a minute. If I reset the connection, it jumps back up to 15Mbps but only briefly. All my other wireless devices work fine on the same network. My older b/g cards work faster than this. This card is junk.
Overall Review: I've tried all the different drivers I could find and all their settings, none fixed this issue. I've also tried a different PCI-E slot, no help there either.
Nice Board

Pros: Extremely easy OC. Had my 2600K stable at 4.8 by only changing one value in bios. Of course all the other options are there if you want to really fine tune it as well to get your voltages/temp down from the auto settings, etc.
Cons: none really.
Overall Review: Works flawlessly with 2600K, 16GB G-Skill Ripjaws, 2-OCZ vertex3 in raid 0, 2-640GB seagate in raid 1, 2-8600GTS in SLI. I used FRIO cooler and had to adjust the front fan to clear the ram. It needed about 3mm to clear...
