Most Favorable Review

Not a Server, only supports 1/2G non-ECC, unbuffered

ASUS P6T WS PRO LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Core i7 / Xeon Intel Motherboard

Pros: Love the board. Lots of features.

Cons: Right angle sata/sas terminals make it somewhat inaccessible on some cases. Memory requirements not properly stated and documented. (see other thoughts below)

Overall Review: This is NOT a server board. Newegg really should move it. Memory requirements should be better clarified. Manual states: "You may install 1GB and 2GB non-ECC, unbuffered DDR3 DIMMs into the DIMM". Crucial site says it supports ECC 4GB, but I get no POST beep and an error code of 68 which I can't find in the manual or online and so far ASUS as yet to respond to my online requests.

Most Critical Review

Cheaply made, not worth it.

Rosewill 11.1" ~ 15.4" Ergonomic Notebook Cooler RNA-6000

Pros: Adjustable angle, swivel base.

Cons: After 2-3 months of usage, one of the stopper tabs at the bottom broke. Upon further inspection I found fractures in each of the two plastic tabs on each stopper (each of the 2 stopper tabs at the bottom have 2 plastic tabs which clip onto the base). As I was inspecting this, I also found that the fan was no longer working due to poor wiring. Moving the cable around would intermittently get the fan to spin, but could not be sustained without completely rewiring it. Very disappointed.

Overall Review: My HP has a slightly bevelled front so with any angle over 30°, it would slide off (stoppers were extended). I fixed this by extending the length of the stopper tabs. The unit is also considerably narrower than I thought it would be.
