Most Favorable Review

Good product

NuGiant NSS05 Galaxy Power Surge Strip
NuGiant NSS05 Galaxy Power Surge Strip

Pros: Has 8 instead of 6 outlets plus cable and phone.

Cons: Good features

Overall Review: I could mention that the middle 6 outlets are a little tight but I really like the way the spacing is done on the outer 4.....great for dc plug ins. It's also big so don't expect something small.

Most Critical Review

Does not fit itx motherboards

IN WIN K1 BASIC Black Thin Mini-ITX Desktop Computer Case 120W Power Supply

Pros: Sleek, looks good. Comes with a power supply.

Cons: Turns out it is too small since it can't even fit an ITX motherboard even though it is advertised as such. The rear panel of any itx motherboard will not fit inside the case. Also, keep in mind, that you must buy a slim DVD/Blu Ray drive as the case will not fit a full size DVDROM/Blu Ray Drive... I didn't realize that one until I finally got the case.

Overall Review: It does appear to be fairly sturdy, but don't expect it to support a large TV flat screen. It will support another component on top of it such as a receiver.

ASRock rocks it!

Pros: Ton of features. I mean a ton of features. About the only thing that this thing doesn't have is built in wireless. Appears to be fairly rock solid so far, construction of motherboard is hi quality. Nice value, if you are unsure of asrock and are thinking of taking the plunge, do it. I'm a long time asus customer that will buy from asrock again.

Cons: I don't like the uefi options for storage management. It wasn't easy to get win to recognize a larger than 2.2 tb drive, but I eventually figured it out.

Overall Review: This is a well polished motherboard. They could use to improve the explanations of options in the bios and it would be nice if they allowed more tweaking, but that's about it. It's real easy to see why this motherboard has one so many awards.
