Great so far!

SAMSUNG  Black  22X  DVD+R 8X  DVD+RW 16X  DVD-ROM 48X  CD-ROM 2MB  Cache SATA DVD Burner - OEM
SAMSUNG Black 22X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-ROM 2MB Cache SATA DVD Burner - OEM

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

ASRock P43Twins1600 LGA 775 Intel P43 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASRock P43Twins1600 LGA 775 Intel P43 ATX Intel Motherboard

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!!!

G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-8500CL5D-2GBPK
G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-8500CL5D-2GBPK

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 $$$

Rosewill R5604-BK  0.8mm Japanese Cold Rolled Steel Dual 120mm Fans Screw-Less design ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Rosewill R5604-BK 0.8mm Japanese Cold Rolled Steel Dual 120mm Fans Screw-Less design ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

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!!

ASRock P43Twins1600 LGA 775 Intel P43 ATX Intel Motherboard

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!!
