Great so far!
Pros: I have only had it for two weeks on a new computer I built for my parents and havn't burned anything yet, but it works very well, is fast (sata). it loaded windows and all other apps. quiet and quick, and it's a Samsung
Cons: none
Overall Review: it's beautiful outside right now, I should go do something in the yard
Good board
Pros: Comparably inexpensive. ICH10 chipset flies! paired with core 2 duo e 7500 2.93 1066 fsb, and gskill 2gb 1066mh pc8500. very fast! Booted no problem, mem timings were correct, processor clocked correctly. Did not have to mess with any settings in bios.
Cons: none
Overall Review: I built 2 computers with this board ( and the above mentioned proc. and mem.) for my parents, one almost a year ago, and one 2 weeks ago, identical computers, they love them and so do I !! I'm running a p4 3g prescott w/ 2gb pc3200 and theirs is so much faster..........I need an upgrade!!
Great ram!!!
Pros: No problem, works great, is fast. I'm liking GSkill, this is my second pair, the first was 184 pin DDR400 (PC3200) 2X1 Gb one year ago and it's still rockin'!! ( in a different 'puter, of course)
Cons: none whatsoever
Overall Review: I used this memory in a new build using an ASRock P43Twins1600 mobo, and an Intel Core2Duo 2.53 E7200 Wolfdale processor (1066 MHz FSB). It booted right up at @ proper speed (1066), correct timing (5-5-5-15) and voltage (2.1). Methinks that most of the problems that people have with this memory are actually motherboard and/or processor compatibility issues. Make sure it matches ur rig and you'll be happy.
Very nice case for the $$$
Pros: Built in mobo standoffs, 2 120 mm fans, adjustable side vent duct is awesome, it goes right up to the cpu fan ( stock Intel heat sink/ fan) which draws in fresh cool air directly to the cpu while the two 120's keep case nice and cool, great air flow case!!! Power button on top is nice. Filter screens are nice, fairly easy to remove and clean. Heavy, sturdy, quality case, for the $$$. Screwless drive install is smooth and easy.
Cons: Can't think of any............................................nope, still can't think of any
Overall Review: I got mine w/ free shipping, but I would still recommend this case. Some say front 5.25 drive bay covers break easily when removing, but if you take ur time, be carefull, and only bend tabs just enough to release them from case front, you shouldn't have a problem, I rearranged 3 of them no prob. I can hear fans running but I don't think they are overly loud, but I like to hear my computer run anyway!! Go for the flow!! ASRock P43Twins1600. Intel Core2Duo 2.53 E7200, WD 160 GB Sata 3.0 hard drive, 2X1 GB GSkill DDR2 1066 (PC8500), Sapphire Radeon HD3650 PCI-E 2.0, this computer is quick, slick, and handsome!! Fast delivery,Newegg rocks!!
Awesome board so far!!
Pros: P43,DDR2, DDR3, PCI-E 2.0, ICH10 Southbridge, E-Sata........great features for a reasonable price!! Would reccomend ASRock to anyone, have been running an ASRock P4V88 mobo for 2.5 yrs., it has been solid, stable and fast!!
Cons: None, Zilch, Zero, Nada
Overall Review: I wish it was mine!! I actually built this for my parents 3 weeks ago and so far they're lovin' it! ( me 2!) This board w/ Rosewill R5604- BK case, 1X2 g Gskill DDR 1066, Intel C2Duo E7200 2.53, Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 3650 PCI-E 2.0 512 m, WD Caviar 160 g Sata 3.0 HD. This board correctly detected memory speed,(1066), timing, (5-5-5-15), voltage, (2.1), and processor/ speed right off the bat!....EXCELLENT!!
Nice memory
Pros: Nice machined red heat spreaders look great through windowed case. Computer detected mem. w/ no problem, runs great, nice boost from 1G house brand PC3200
Cons: None
Overall Review: ASRock P4V88, P4 Prescott 3.0. Order processing and shipping was lightning fast! Tks Newegg and UPS!
