Good MoBo and works with a new AMD FX Processor too!
Pros: I looks nice, good price and works fine with a AMD FX-4100 (3.6Ghz) Processor I bought for it.
Cons: None yet.
Overall Review: I wasn't sure if this would work with the new FX processors, because it just mentioned Athlon, Phenom etc, but it does. Just thought this would help someone out!
Made System Unstable
Pros: None really..
Cons: Defective unit. Created a very unstable system. Machine would freeze with artifacts on the screen. Could not install Windows 7. Could not even make simple changes in the BIOS as you could never tell when the system would restart or freeze. BSOD on me several times. Different error code every time. RMAd it and we'll see if the next stick works.
Overall Review: I tried another stick of RAM from a working machine, and it brought the system to life. So no doubt a bad stick. I can't say they'll all be this way, but this one sure was. I'll update when the next stick arrives.
Good little case
Pros: Good price, two quiet fans, looks nice, decent build quality even good quality for the price, has mount for SSD on bottom of case,
Cons: The case metal is a tiny bit thin, but not a major problem..
Overall Review: I've gravitated to this little case for my budget builds for my clients. It comes with some quiet fans, looks nice and doesn't feel super cheap like a lot of the other budget cases I've used. I'm going to stick with this case for any budget build I have. It's a great case for the money. The metal could be a little thicker, but it's not really too bad. For a simple case, you can't go wrong.
Does what you'd think
Pros: Good price, Seems decently sturdy. Easy to install. Comes with all hardware to put it right up. Had my monitor up in about 10 mins. Even has little rubber covers for the bolts. And who doesn't love "anti-rusty" paint?
Cons: Can't think of any
Overall Review: Went right up on the wall and seems sturdy enough. Probably would hold it's rated weight, but if you try it, make sure you use those anchors or find a stud. Does the job. Can't complain. Left the bolt for the left and right movement slightly loose and now I can move the monitor from right to left depending on what side of my work bench I'm working on.
Cool Blue Quiet Fan
Pros: Looks cool. Decent price. Nice blue color. Fit right in the old fans spot without any problems. It's pretty quiet. Can't hear it above the other fans in the case.
Cons: wish it had a connector or adapter to hook it up to motherboard fan headers, but it's just 4 pin molex. Oh well.
Overall Review: Looks cool. it's really quiet i promise.
Pretty fast!
Pros: Installed well. Good price. Comes with a 2.5" adapter to slide in 3.5" HDD bay..
Cons: None yet.
Overall Review: Easy to install, just worked right out of box. Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit boots up in 17 seconds. Just wish I could have been able to afford a bigger size.
