Pros: Rock solid name; fairly cheap mainboard, Dual Core AMD ready; Alot of suprising features including the usb2.0 controller and raid controller even tho the low cost of the board. Good value.

Cons: Cons of this board; As said before the Capacitors have some very bad placement and could easily be broken off if yer not careful; Aswell that this mainboard and AMD 64bit X2 chips DO NOT run with Winxp SP2.Works like a charm with Sp1; if yer sporting SP2 you will need to reinstall.

Overall Review: Good little board: Note -Little- This board is -not- a full atx; it is an ATX mini/micro; which wasn't reflected in the desc. I bought a 100% plexi-glass case full atx case. Had to junk the case cuz of this (cannot reposition mounts) Over all decient budget board. But is -Not- a full atx mainboard.

Pros: Nice asthetic; very simple plexiglass/acrylic case. Alot of on board fans.

Cons: The fans installed are useless; push almost no air; and are very loud. Secondly there are cracks on all screw in points using metal screws; aswell about 20 screw holes and about 5 screws that come with the case. Bad air flow; the spreading cracks on arrival (it was well packaged must be manafacture) Aswell due to it being Acrylic you cannot modify/move the mainboard anchors.

Overall Review: Generally just a bad and sadly expencive case (considering no psu) move along avoid this; I ended up buying a new system and throw it in my old Raidmax case; which still works/rox. This case looked to good to be true. It was. PS. Case does -not- light up as in pic; you need a black light for that. Slightly deceptive.

Pros: The case has a great appearance front panels well lit with gauges (more for show than actual use due to size/accuracy) Good price; w/side air duct.

Cons: The case comes with sub-standard cooling; There are -no- intake fans on front; only one 80mm on top and one 80mm for exhaust. Also Mid-atx case; VERY tight fit with a full rack of HD's with fullsize ge7800gtx(SLi) cards. Front panel a pain to remove. (2 screws + remove both side panels to access)

Overall Review: Great case; looks sweet. Setup was a pain due to trying to setup Sata HD's; No sliding mounts (all standard screw to rack hard mounts) makes installion long. Odd that the side air duct has no mount for a fan (usually 92mm fan) Replace the 80mm exhaust fan with a 120mm antec one. Keeps a dual core/sli with no front intake below 65c.
