Pros: One of my better newegg purchases. It's small, quite, replaced my old HTPC and is a lot faster than I had expected. After upgrading to the latest Intel HD drivers, 1080p playback is great for the most part. Boots into windows in about 11-15 seconds. CPU runs at about 30% when watching a 4 gig 1080p mkv video, while running torrents in the background.

Cons: These cons are very picky because overall, the nT-iBT19 is overall a fantastic product: Some 1080p 60fps videos on youtube were a bit choppy, but it could have just been the stream. Opening the case was a little tricky. I'm always ultra careful with stuff like this so it took me a while to notice that I had to put some strain on the plastic cover to pop it off, even when using the plastic knife thing supplied with it. This was not a big problem though, but FYI. Installing windows 8.1 64 bit was a tiny bit tricky. You have to go into the bios and I believe select CSM support = enable. I thought I read you only have to do this for windows 7 32 bit, but my usb wouldn't boot until I made this change and restarted.

Overall Review: If you are looking for a very cheap and small HTPC, have some extra hard drives laying around, all you have to do is pop in 4 gigs of memory and it's a wrap, son. I couldn't get Steam streaming on this but it could be my network setup as Steam wouldn't recognize the device when troubleshooting on the host computer.

Pros: Fast, lots of memory

Cons: bad harddrive. Have to RMA. I was somewhat skeptical of buying this computer after a lot of reviews were complaining about the hardware quality, and within two weeks the harddrive craps out.
