Pros: I found it easy to install components into this case, with plenty of room for drives and add-in cards. It's a cool case with lots of air flow. The drive trays make installation and removal of drives easy.

Cons: It was missing the spot for one stand-off for the Gigabyte F2A88X-D3H ATX mainboard that I installed in the second of two of these cases. Not a major issue.

Overall Review: I've purchased two of these cases so far and have been very pleased with them and will continue to buy them as needed.

Pros: Everything you need on one board Bios updates from Bios screen

Cons: shipped with no backplate and is not listed as included. Need bios updates b4 u do anything. For memory, cpu recognition, and compatibility. NForce2 Drivers from Nvidia worked better than the ones on disk or manufacturer website. i/o controller hesitates

Overall Review: I know I had stated that I wouldn't buy a Biostar board again but they were the only Socket 462 board still available with a name that I knew. For the price of this board I expected better. If you can afford it, don't waste your time on socket 462, go with one of the newer boards.

Pros: Good price, plenty of ports, and slots

Cons: PCIe x1 slot is unusable when a dual-slot video card is installed. Owners Manual could be a little clearer on which memory slots to use for Dual Channel mode. Still looking for the answer.

Overall Review: MSI's live update 5 seems to have some issues with W7. It runs and then stops. Haven't figured out the Core Unlock utility either. (paired with AMD Athlon II X4 645 Processor). Other than an occasional system freeze that I haven't been able to determine the cause of, this was an outstanding upgrade to the Biostar board that I've had for the last 7 years.

Pros: great price, DX11, HDMI out, low power, display port, VGA port

Cons: dual slot (because of fan)

Overall Review: catalyst control panel stops working every time I boot under W7. I am running the latest release. The system also occasionally hangs when playing Battlefield 2142, or WoW but I cannot determine whether it's video or other related.

Pros: a cheap starter combo for people who dont care for sound or feel

Cons: keyboard slant is almost non-existant even with the legs down and the speakers overload easily under normal use.

Pros: I bought 3 of them for a case and together they aren't any louder than the case fans that were already in place.

Cons: none
