best fan ever

COOLER MASTER R4-S2S-12AK-GP 120mm Silent Fan 120 SI1
COOLER MASTER R4-S2S-12AK-GP 120mm Silent Fan 120 SI1

Pros: i can proudly say that without any sort of fan controller or bios control, i can run this fan at it's highest speed and it is still for intents and purposes, silent. will do well for any normal application.

Cons: there really are no cons. as long as rated CFM is good enough for your particular situation, then there's no reason not to get this fan. price is right considering product quality and performance.

Overall Review: Get this fan! with cases that support multiple mounting locations with room for 120mm fans in front and side, it performs very well, especially when all mounting locations are utilized.

Junk

Saitek J64 P3000 Wireless Pad
Saitek J64 P3000 Wireless Pad

Pros: Great when they worked, battery stayed charged for a quite a while, decent reception. Rechargeable base is good concept. 2 batteries per controller

Cons: Had 2. Both died after about a year. Enjoy them while they last. Or better yet, try another brand altogether.

Overall Review: Took them apart looking for cause of failure, to no avail. Appears to be batteries.... out of 4 , u'd think 1 would stay good... nope... will stick to wired controllers from now on, except maybe xbox 360 wireless when avail. for PC soon.

awesome board

GIGABYTE GA-MA770-UD3 AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-MA770-UD3 AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Great board with no hitches, even updated bios to the latest without destroying the board (unlike biostar)... running kuma 7750, 4gb 2.2v kington hyper-X ddr2 1066 (careful, ram voltage limited in bios, wouldn't use anything higher than 2.2v), radeon 4850 512, antec 300 case w/ 5 case fans. seems to be "ultra durable" and of high quality thus far.

Cons: fan control options limited. no manual calibrating fan speeds via bios. I would recommend a fan controller if you want those features. that's really the only complaint other than the max. ram voltage setting in bios. I suppose if you use IDE connector it will be blocked by the video card, but who uses that? :)

Overall Review: of all the am2 boards i've used on builds, this is the best thus far, no contest. no wonder it's out of stock all of the time.... hope i can snag another when it comes time for another build for a customer.....

Beautiful Case!

Rosewill R6A34-SL 0.8mm SECC 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Rosewill R6A34-SL 0.8mm SECC 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: - Sturdy, large case with plenty of room to work with. - Easy to add front 120mm fan by literally snapping one in, no screws required! - Easy to remove front panel w/ no wires attached! - Sleek, yet not overwhelming appearance, perfect blend...

Cons: well, if i was to be picky, it only comes with 1 rear 120mm fan. For this price and how easy it is to add a front 120mm fan, what can you expect for this price?

Overall Review: This case just has it all folks. It even has rubber vibration dampeners on the HDD cage! They just do all the little details and it all comes together to be a great case! This case is a bit large, but if space isn't an issue, go for it!

works fine

Pros: works fine and quick without being terribly noisy. I'd say about average in the sound category.

Cons: none

Overall Review: sata works fine without extra drivers as long as you're not using ACHI mode --- including OS install.
