Pros: Great price really fast, stable. I bought 2 of these and am running them with crossfire. I'd reccomend this card and 2 cards if you want some crazy good performance.

Cons: None

Most Critical Review

Ok board

MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard
MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: It runs vista x64 stable. I have 2 ATI 4870's running on this with an older soundblaster PCI xfi fatality. It has 2 x16 pci express slots. Built in promise raid works great built in ati/amd raid works great too. MSI tech support supplied beta bios to me fast.

Cons: Had to use beta bios 1.7b4 to recognize AMD Phenom II 940. Won't run my 8gb of OCZ memory as 1066. The PCI express 1x slot gets blocked by my video card. The other PCI slot gets blocked by my 2nd video card.

Overall Review: The board layout should be a little different. I think new boards should accomodate 2 slots for a video card.

Great LCD

Pros: This LCD is great for the price. It seems to have a fast enough refresh rate to keep up with my gaming. It comes with both DVI and VGA inputs.

Cons: A con is it only comes with a VGA cable and not a DVI cable so you'll need to buy one separately if you don't have one. The base is a little cheap, but what do you expect at this price point.

Overall Review: Overall its a great screen at this price point.

Great for a NAS

Pros: Great little box for the price. I boot off a CF card and run Freenas on it. It uses little power as well. Certainly great for a single drive NASappliance.

Cons: have to take out the motherboard to put the CF card in.
