excellent overclocking
Pros: I haven't overclocked a video card yet from the bios but I overclocked this video card from ntune and maxed out the core bus to 1310mhz and the memory bus to 1680mhz staying cool at 45*c and it seemed like it could go much further.
Cons: None. evga750iftw q6600@3.2ghz ocz1066mhz msigtx260ov4 wdc2x250gbraid0
Overall Review: wdc650gb coolmax740w coolermaster cosmos coolermaster aqua gate max
Worked for about 2 hours.
Pros: It did not kill my CPU, SSDs, video card or RAM.
Cons: This board died in 2 hours. I don't know how to get a return if at all possible.
Overall Review: I was all setup. Motherboard booted into bios and windows no problem. I did a full windows shutdown then nothing. On/Off button would not start it. I had another button that works and still nothing. I tried a bios reset and not thing.
Good for the price.
Pros: It's light. The magnetic dust filters are a nice feature. Lots of fan mount points. For a small case it has a good layout to squeeze in a big video card. One USB-C and two USB 3.2 Type-A is all the connectivity I need up front. It's designed to stand on rubber feet vertical or horizontal.
Cons: It's light so it's kind of flimsy but not much of an issue considering it's a small case.
Overall Review: For a cheap small case I like it.
You can do alot with it
Pros: I was lucky when I got this cpu from TD because it was a Revision GO and that has something to do with overclocking capabilities. I overclocked it to 3.20GHz, FSB unlinked 1420MHz, and core voltage 1.40v.
Cons: The only con is not knowing what revision you will get and the same goes for core 2 duo.

Solid GPU
Pros: I shopped around for about a month,on Newegg, and this video card had better specs than any other Nvidia cards in this price range. This is my first GTX card and it is a big step from my two Evga 8600GTS. The installation went without a hitch and now the settings on any game I play are on high.
Cons: None as of yet. At idle the card is at 45*c and under load without the fan at 100% is like 70*c.
Overall Review: I will go SLI with a pair of these. If your looking to buy Nvidia and don't want to pay the insane prices then buy this card it has double the stream processors and a higher core and memory clock than the Evga card that is the same price.
Good HD.
Pros: Great price, free shipping and Western Digital's warranty and RMA service is excellent. Its not the fastest nor is it the biggest hard drive but when you RAID a few of these, the performance is noticeable and the money spent isn't. It truly is a redundant array of INEXPENSIVE disks.
Cons: I was going to give it four eggs because the same day I got this drive it and my other Western Digital HDD stopped working after I tried RAID for the first time. I think a chip on the board of the HDDs probably fried and it was more than likely my fault.
Overall Review: I have always purchased Western Digital hard drives and I'll never buy a different brand.
