Amazing

Pros: *Extremely inexpensive *Houses your older RAM and CPU *Shipped in Factory Box with all material and Software *Received in exactly 3 business days
Cons: None so far
Overall Review: I bought this as an upgrade to a 7 yr. old Amethyst OEM board. I needed a board that would accommodate the old 184-pin RAM but give some options for CPU as opposed to a 939 socket. This is a great piece of hardware for upgrading an old motherboard on a budget while not having to upgrade your RAM. When I opened it I would have sworn I bought it at a store brand new. It was in a sealed factory box with all the factory documentation and software disk. The board itself was in a sealed factory plastic wrap with the CPU socket cover and everything. Order was placed at 1:30pm on a Friday and product was received at 5pm the next Tues. with free shipping. Very impressed with the quality of service. Given 5 stars. Will update if I find any problems but it's great so far.
Not to bad

Pros: As advertised. Low cost vs. performance. Did everything I needed it to do.
Cons: Crapped out on me around ~10 mths.
Overall Review: Approx. 1 yr ago I purchased the 4g (2x 2g) bundle pack of this stick, model number F3-10600CL9S-4GBNS for anyone who is interested, along with an ASUS mobo and an Intel E6600. Popped them in and went on trucking without a hitch. I started having minor hicups on the PC around 2 months ago or so. I attributed it to a number of possible factors ... a 12 year old PSU and HD to name a couple. Well a week ago or so the whole system finally crashed. Went ahead and got a new HD and PSU, as well as upgraded my old GPU and my OS. Threw everything in and couldn't load up the new software. Went digging around and found that one of the 2 RAM sticks that are barely a yr old is massively corrupt. Now I can't complain to much since I paid less than 20 bucks for this one stick. But a stick of ram shouldn't die after ~10 months. Knocked an egg for longevity. After having said all of that I will be purchasing another one to replace the corrupt one. Like I said, 20 bucks for a yr isn't to bad :D
