OK, I guess

Black Aluminum Multifunction Panel
Black Aluminum Multifunction Panel

Pros: - Adds purty blue LED screen to front of case. I like purty lights. - Does what it says it does.

Cons: To reiterate what others have said: - Almost not worth having if your PC is kept on the floor. You can't read the display unless you're at eye level. I find myself crawling on my hands and knees to read the thing. - Since this device takes control of your fans, this means that the fans are not plugged into the mobo. My A8N32-SLI Deluxe scremas at boot cuz it can't see the CPU fan. Also the Asus PC Probe software can't monitor the fans that you have plugged into this device. - Had a little trouble getting it to fit in my CoolerMaster Centurion 5 "tool-less" case.

Overall Review: I thought this would be a pretty cool toy to add to my first build, but I'm thinking of removing it. It's not really as useful or as convenient to use as I thought, mostly because I was unaware of the features of my mobo. I guess I just don't really need it.

Pros: Great airflow. Tool-less stuff is cool. Looks sweet.

Cons: A bit cramped for what I threw into it but I guess thats my fault. This was my first custom build and this case was pretty easy to work with.

What can you really say?

BFG Tech GeForce 7800GTX 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card BFGR78512GTXOC
BFG Tech GeForce 7800GTX 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card BFGR78512GTXOC

Pros: This card just kicks boo-tay. What else can you say? It's the king.

Cons: It's not expensive enough. They really need to raise the price on this one a bit more.

Overall Review: And a free t-shirt too. Wow. Now if they ever get down to a reasonable price, I can get another one and get the SLI thing going. And then I'll have 2 t-shirts.
