Pros: The board works great. I didn't find any problems whatsoever. best of all, I got it free as a gift :D

Cons: None.

Overall Review: The board is worth buying. As for FPS: please stop complaining. If the board came DOA, don't double post to keep buyers away. You got one bad board out of a thousand. it doesn't mean the manufacturer is horrible. This happens to all manufacturers. If you have a problem with that, don't buy a motherboard at all.

Pros: Fastest single-GPU card on the market. Looks and runs cool. Not too loud.

Cons: Should have bough off Newegg.

Overall Review: Do not listen to the reviews that said this card isn't the fastest or is only 50% faster than the GTX 460. This card is the fastest card on the market (single GPU; this excludes cards such as the HD 5970, HD 6990, and GHTX 590). It is true that this card is about twice as fast as the GTX 460, but this card is still the better buy if you want a high-end card. Logistically speaking GTX 460 SLI would be faster than a single GTX 580. If you do some research on this comparison, you can see why the GTX 580 is a better buy. First off, you aren't limited to 768MB/1GB of VRAM. Second, at higher resolutions with AA, the GTX 580 will offer better and smoother gameplay. And lastly, this card has a longer life span. If games become too demanding, you can SLI up to 4 cards. With the GTX 460, you can only do 2-way SLI, thus limiting you for future upgrades.

Pros: -This card can run any game maxed settings and still remain above 30FPS. -The 2GB of VRAM make this card great for higher resolutions and for demanding games. -It has equal if not higher performance compared to a GTX 570, but the 2GB of VRAM make this card a better buy IMO. -Can compare to a GTX 580 (though not as powerful).

Cons: -VERY long. Over 10" in fact (10.5" I believe). Was able to get it to fit in an HP microATX case. -Can get hot if the fan isn't set to an effective speed (I run the fan at 50%, which is somewhat loud, but it keeps the card below 70 degrees Celsius). -This isn't a reference model, but I wasn't really planning on OCing. Just wanted to inform you.

Overall Review: Overall, this card is a great buy. It offers performance for a great price, not to mention it can compare to cards of higher price ranges. However, this card can be loud, as well as hot.
