Pros: Does a 1080p screen without challenges, delivers Dolby® TrueHD™ and DTSHD™ Master Audio capabilities (works with XBMC pass-through), Dead silent for an HTPC since there is no video card fan.

Cons: For my purpose, I can't think of any.

Overall Review: Dependable card for an XBMC build. tested with Ver 12 and 13 Beta 1. You will like it.

Pros: Runs. Fits into my tower, runs in my Raid 5 Array No DOA's

Cons: Hot! (...but I knew that) Cheapend down. :o(

Overall Review: I had purchased several (10+) Hitachi drives (1 TB, 32MB Cache) for a few servers running my home entertainment library. I needed two more drives for a new array. These were the same price point, but now only had a 16MB Cache Purchasing them was disapointing, when I opened the static bag... Now the drives no longer had two power connectors, they only had the SATA style power connectior. This caused me to scamble around my junk box looking for power splitters with a sata connector. The circutry board was noticably smaller, the metal housing itself was noticably less engineered... The printed label even looked like carp. (Spelling intentionally incorrect as to not offend the newegg spelling bot). Generally, it looked like a bad copy of the previous drives I had purchased. Still, if it runs like the others, it will do fine.

Pros: I just bout my second one. This works great for an XBMC build. The smooth front door (running the length of the front) has a clear panel, and that is where I install my HP IR receiver (for use with my Logitech Harmony Remote)... so don't ask me about the display panel, as I don't use that. Nor do I care about the ability to put in an optical drive, or even the SD card readers. I just pop in a PS, MB, Vid card and SSD...and BAM! instant XBMC box that looks great with all the other audio components.

Cons: ... having to listen to whiney folks that think that this is not the greatest case you can get for $50 bucks. Seriously, I tried cheaper, and you get cheaper. This is a perfect box for the HTPC needs.

Pros: Best Cheap power supply. You need to buy one. LOTS of cables, and comes with zip-ties.

Cons: Have you NOT bought one yet?

Pros: Low profile, does the job that is intend, nice design, VERY quiet,

Cons: You would think install would be easy, but it's not. Why? You would think that the Arrows on the posts indicate how to tighten. N O ! ! ! the arrows tell you which way to turn to UNINSTALL. With this arrow thing, you think it's installed, and it just keeps being floopy, leaving you wondering: Wha the fark ? But then, once you figure it out, all is well with the world. Nice that they included heat paste preinstalled.

Overall Review: Nicer than the stock Intel cooler, running it my HTPC, works on socket 775 chip (that's what I have). Now My Video Card is louder and I'll have to replace THAT !

Pros: * what I said before.

Cons: * None so far

Overall Review: As I said in my other review, I liked this fan so well, I added a second in my system. Now it's set up in a push-pull config, pulling air into the front of the case, and pushing it out the back. CPU and GPU temps have dropped 3c, and drive temps (I have 10 installed) have dropped 10c.
