Very Pleased

ASRock 760GM-GS3 AM3 AMD 760G + SB710 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
ASRock 760GM-GS3 AM3 AMD 760G + SB710 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Everything works

Cons: None, Really

Overall Review: Built out two computers for my kids using these motherboards. Builds went smoothly, and they have been running just fine. The kids only play flash games on the web and some educational games from DVD. The on-board video handles it just fine.

Quite Pleased

ASUS GeForce GT 430 (Fermi) 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Low Profile Ready Video Card ENGT430/DI/1GD3(LP)
ASUS GeForce GT 430 (Fermi) 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Low Profile Ready Video Card ENGT430/DI/1GD3(LP)

Pros: Got it for a great price. Great bang for the buck. Performance is solid, but I'm not much of a gamer. I edit video at times, and this does the job.

Cons: Fan got a wee bit noisy after 18 months

Overall Review: After the fan got a wee bit noisy, I did a little Frankenstein surgery and fixed it up.

Like a Champ

TP-LINK TL-WR841ND Wireless N300 Home Router, 300Mbps, IP QoS, WPS Button, 2 detachable antennas
TP-LINK TL-WR841ND Wireless N300 Home Router, 300Mbps, IP QoS, WPS Button, 2 detachable antennas

Pros: The setup program was a breeze. It all went smoothly. The only thing I had to do was reboot my cable modem. Four wireless PCs, one wired PC, one cabled PC, one cabled DirecTV box, one cabled printer and two wireless phones all work fine.

Cons: None, really, I could have paid more for a gigabit wired port, but it's not like I really need it for what I do.

Overall Review: Remember to set the encryption to AES to get full speed connection.

Pros: Easy to install and works right out of the box on Win7 32/64 machines. Solidly built - I had no issues with floppy antennae.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: The included USB extension cable makes placement easy. In the past I had D-Link PCI adapters, and they were a headache compared to this puppy.
