Excellent case for the money
Pros: Very inexpensive, lots of room for hardware, can fit two 120mm fans on the front and top, SSD mount, comes with rear fan, solid construction for the money, good cable management, very attractive without being gaudy.
Cons: 1 USB 3.0 on front, other is 2.0, no standoffs on case they are fixed mounts (not that my board had a problem), a pain to take off the front cover to put in a fan.
Overall Review: I don't see how you can go wrong at this price.
Biostar RMA is garbage
Pros: I installed this board and everything was fine, then I plugged in a flash drive into the front USB ports and it hard shut off. After case swaps, different devices, etc. it kept happening. Replaced with an MSI board works fine. RMA to biostar explaining the issue, get the board back it does the same thing.
Cons: Biostar RMA
Overall Review: I hate when these companies don't read your RMA, they see that it POSTs and they send it back. I will never buy another Biostar product, because their warranty is a waste of time. I'm throwing this board in the trash, no point in paying shipping to get my board sent back with the same problems.
Lenovo...why?
Pros: Fast, when it doesn't lock up.
Cons: Caps lock comes on all the time, even if you hit shift, touch screen freezes, mouse freezes all the time, 128GB SSD is about 50GB free after windows and recovery partitions.
Overall Review: I love Lenovo, but this thing is garbage. Newegg was awesome with the return.
Good laptop
Pros: Fast, DVD drive, etc,.
Cons: I really wanted to point out to people that this thing gets finger prints all over it, the material absorbs the oil in your hand, it gets messy fast. But it is a nice laptop.
Great PC for the money
Pros: I have ordered two of these and have no issues. Very fast, upgraded graphics, nice USB 3.0 headers on the front.
Cons: Windows 8, laptop DVD drive.
Solid case for the money
Pros: I built 10 PCs with these cases and had little issue. They are a little weird to build with, but once you get it down everything fits in nice and it's pretty solid. The PSU seems ok, though it has a special power cable because the PSU is in the front. If you are trying to build some workstations cheap, these are a good choice.
Cons: Trying to line the DVD drive up perfectly is a little tough. Once you get one or two installed and you realized any mistakes you made, they work well.
Misleading Specs
I ordered 3 HP computers. I wish they would say "Pentium Dual-Core" but they list them as "Core Duo" which makes you think they are probably Core 2 Duos. They are not wrong, but it's terrible wording. Also, one of the DVD drives did not work. Overall, decent machines
