Good case for the money
Pros: Case is sturdy for this price point. Included power supply is good for most systems. Airflow in the case is good enough to keep my recent build at a decent temp. Included fan is a 3 prong and not a molex connection.
Cons: Some very minor cons, power supply has only one SATA connection. PCI E connection is not from the power supply but a Molex adapter that has 6 wires. Motherboard tray does not use standoffs but has dimples.
Overall Review: Still even with the cons above I give it 5 eggs. Included power supply is nothing spectacular but it works. Case does have room for 120mm fans on both the front and rear. I'm not sure but I think you can take the CPU Shroud off the side cover and replace it with a 120mm fan as well. This was user for an AMD X2-5200 and an ECS GF8200A (V1.0) with an ATI HD4650 with 4GB of ram and a 320GB Sata HD and 2 Sata DVD drives. Plenty of space to hide cables if you get creative. (Newegg rocks)
Need More!
Pros: Watch voltages. Just dropped it in and it worked it's Ram after all.
Cons: none
Overall Review: Plan on getting more especially at this price.
Not an overclocker but stable
Pros: Stable board right out of the box. Easy to configure and understand bios. Some peoploe say lack of support and drivers? Google is your friend people wake up!
Cons: not really a Con just a configuration tip. When using a USB Mouse and USB keyboard you need to make changes in the bios for some OS. To even install Vista I had to change the BIOS to Bios controlled support for my keyboard. Other than that no issues.
Overall Review: Stable board runs my system flawlessly X2 6000 (not OCed) 8800 GTS 320MB 2GB ram
Works as advertised
Pros: I get decent frame rates in every game I have thrown at it. I have no issues playing DVD's. Granted I'm using the DVI to VGA converter as well. Getting a LCD monitor to see what this is really capable of.
Cons: none at all make sure to remove protective plastic.
Overall Review: not really a pro or con, Do not over tighten the connection screws. I over did 1 and it snapped!
