Pros: I was glad to sacrifice the modularness for the price. It performs very well. The cables are long enough to reach anywhere in the case.

Cons: Not really a con if you have a full tower, but the long cables could junk up the look of the inside of your case.

Pros: Everyone recommends it for a reason.. Its the best thermal paste around.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Make sure you run your machine the 200 hours for burn in like it's suggested. It really makes a difference!

Pros: It works and it smells like oranges.. I love oranges

Cons: none

Pros: This thing is quality built. From the 2X copper to the Japanese caps, it is made to last. Put that with all the bells and whistles like 8 sata III ports and all the PCI slots, you have a real winner. I dare you to find a quality board with all the features for under $200. I can't say enough about this board. Just buy it. You won't regret it

Cons: none

Pros: It runs most (most) games without a hitch. It stays cool at all times.

Cons: There seems to be a little bit of a bottleneck. The processor isn't quite fast enough to make full use of the 2GB of memory.

Overall Review: It won't run everything maxed on Assassin's creed 3 :(

Pros: Looks good in the case

Cons: I had to tweak my BIOS to get it to run at 1866. I don't feel like I should've had to do anything but plug it in to get it to run at it's advertised speed. It may be the mobo though (GIGABYTE 990FXA UD7) so I'm only knocking one egg off.
