Good Little Board

Pros: Pretty much all I needed. Fitted this into slim, low profile case. It fit fine. Solid caps should last longer - we'll see. Can handle 8 GB ram in 2 slots instead of only 4 GB PCI X16 slot, and 2 pci slots 2 USB 3 & 2 usb 2 on back panel GB LAN Enough space around CPU for aftermarket cooler 4 on board SATA connectors - didn't use RAID so can't comment on it.
Cons: Weird audio connector setup for HD audio with no way to hook up AC97 style front panel connectors. Probably should have both since the cases out there don't have HD audio for front ports (except high end). Probably cannot use both pci slots if using x16 slot but wouldn't have any use for them both anyway. Instruction manual is one sheet - both sides with photos. If you are not experienced at building then you may want some help from another source.
Overall Review: Board still has IDE, parallel, & serial ports... Why? Haven't used them in at least 3 or 4 years now. Amazing how much is crammed on this board especially for it's size. Anything more would require a riser card!
Not a good deal

Pros: Small and inexpensive. Unable to test due to bad driver.
Cons: Driver cd did not work. Came up with "bad call" error each time. Tried Cmedia's web site (the chip maker) and was unable to find a driver to work with Windows 7. Not worth the $ to return. Guess I'm out.. it's "cheap tuition" . Gave one star for a good try.
Overall Review: Wanted to buy more than one of these if they worked out but no go. Ended up buying used SoundBlaster cards (on another popular site) for which Creative had Windows 7 drivers available. Probably better sound but cost 2x as much.
Solid Mounting

Pros: Strong, solid mount for installing 2.5" hard drive in 3/5" slot Note: must install 2.5" drive first then place mount into 3/5" slot. Includes screws. Good item for the $
Cons: NOne
Overall Review: Turned out that the case I ordered had mounting provided for 2/5" drive which is becoming more usual now. I'll store this away for the next job or a rebuild which would need it.
Excellent Moung

Pros: Solid steel. Heavy duty. Tilts down or up. Locking bar prevents grab and go theft.
Cons: None for our installation. Tilt lock levers are hard to get to and too long (they hit either the mount or the TV when tightened after install) Not a problem for us as we wanted TV tilted all the way down anyway (high mount) so just left them a little bit loose so we could pull it into place after mounting. Worked well.
Overall Review: Mounted on drywall over firring strips over concrete block. Included screws and plastic anchors seemed a bit flimsy to me. Decided to go with 3 inch tech screws directly into the block. Four on top row, four on bottom row, each with a washer. It supported my 230lb weight without flexing or budging. Mounted a 50 inch plasma TV which took two men to handle but it clipped into place without a hitch and locking bar slid through provided holes to prevent anyone from lifting unit off of mount. Much heavier than others I've seen.
OK BUT...

Pros: Large heat sink means it can run without a fan (quiet) Handles video needs quite well but, while I do play games, I'm not a gamer.
Cons: Large heat sink. Installed in a low profile, slim case (this is a low profile card) but heat sink stuck out just under 1/8 inch too far. Could not get side panel on. Got it in a NewEgg deal so didn't want to return it. Looked at construction. It seems that heat sink could be removed, redrilled and reinstalled to solve the clearance problem. But that would ruin warranty. Another reviewer said that he cut off the extra heat sink. Also would ruin warranty AND the card seemed to run hot enough to make that a bad choice. I decided that it needed all the heat sink it could get. Instead, I built a form which enabled me to "bump out" the side panel in a rectangular shape exactly where the heat sink needed the clearance. Worked like a charm. Side panel slips on and off as needed and there is no pressure on the heat sink which could damage the card or the mobo. Shouldn't have to hack my brand new low profile case to fit a low profile card, though. That's why I took off 2 eggs.
Overall Review: After case hack (see cons), it is working properly. In testing stage now so if there are more problems I'll comment then. Had to add an additional case fan (total 2) to handle the heat from the processor and this video card so not sure if having no fan on the card is a real advantage. Please don't buy this card expecting it to fit into a low profile or slim form factor case. It won't.. at least without metal working skills! LOL
Fair Value

Pros: Great price 350 w Power supply was a concern but holding up so far. Not taxing it too much (85w proc & cooler, 1 hard drive, 1 dvd drive, 1 fan). Pretty much what I expected.
Cons: A bit flimsy when apart but solid enough when assembled.
Overall Review: Obviously not an enthusiast case. Everything worked as expected - front ports - case fan - etc. Had it all assembled and testing running in under 2 hours (and I'm not fast at all)
