Impressive
Pros: Very nice picture. Great color and darks. Was a slight graininess to the picture while using it with my PC until I adjusted the noise correction in the settings but after that it looks amazing even as a monitor. My old monitor used 168 watts of electricity while on and with similiar settings turned on this one uses 23 watts. (I'm not a big high contrast or dynamic contrast guy, so I usally get them to run alot less power-wise). As a matter o' fact I liked this TV so much after using it for 3 days I bought another one :)
Cons: Stand does not swivel even a little, kinda liked that feature on my Samsung.
Overall Review: I find it hilarious that my 2005 Samsung 1080p 42" is heavier than this 60" 1080p, but hey thats technology for ya!
Zotac 9300 ITX
Pros: Good Board, with lots of BIOS options, I really like the ITX setup, and am happy wiht the purchase. ZOTAC is also a great company.
Cons: Capacitors and other motherboard parts make it impossible to safely put in a stock intel heatsink and fan. be aware that you will need a heatsink and fan with a sharp rise to it to fit to this motherboard! Also the USB, Audio, and COMs are clear in the back of the case so you may need extension cables.
Overall Review: If you buy Supercase MI-008 there will only be about 55mm of clearance from the CPU to the top of the power supply so if you go with a processor, and even then you will have your cpu fan and PSU fan right on top of eachother which will create terrible cooling.
"Case of the Smalls"
Pros: Nice case, lightweight and sleek front but....
Cons: This case is a disaster to say the least the PSU is bare min. and heres the kicker of why I threw this case out the door. With a ZOTAC 9300 ITX motherboard the is only 55mm of clearance to the PSU, even the thinnest fan being the ***** stock fan from intel come sin at 53mm so you are stuck with the fan being right under the PSU fan which creates terrible cooling.
Overall Review: DO NOT BUY BEWARE! case is only 5.1" tall OD inside you are working with about half an inch less after case and rise for motherboard, except in the back where the motherboard is and you have a 2.5" tall PSU ttaking up the rest of the space. If you buy keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
WOW! That was fast!
I ordered this TV on Wed. and it showed up on that Friday. Very impressed with FedEx on that one, but also it was packaged for shipping briliantly. I work in Logistics and see 400+ packages a day and was very impressed by how sturdy they shipped this TV.
