Good Price
Pros: Great drive, burns almost anything. Fast too.
Cons: When a CD or DVD is at full speed in this, i thought it was gonna shoot out.
Overall Review: Quiet drive for the most part, Installed xp pretty quick.
Great Deal
Pros: Great overclocker, very fast at stock speeds, even faster when OC'd.
Cons: None yet, but i can only get to 3285MHz on mine.(Haven't tried 1.4v yet)
Overall Review: I have this running at 2.9GHz right now, the voltage at 1.29(which is below stock) and its stable using Orthos for 7 hours(thats when i stopped it). My load temps now get about 62C. Im using a gigabyte DS3 and Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. When OC'ed to 3.2GHz, SuperPi 1M finishes in about 19 seconds, compared to stock clock speeds which takes about 30. This is the first system I have built, and i am used to a P4 2.93GHz. This C2D compared to a P4 blows it out of the water. For the budget system, this is a must have.
Great Budget FAn
Pros: People say this fan isn't quiet, but I thought this was basically silent. It actually pushes a good amount of air, and is well built, with a sleeved cable.
Cons: No Cons!!
Overall Review: Great to help cool down your system. Still surprised at how great this fan was for a very low price!
Watch Out!!!!!!
Pros: Good overall case.
Cons: Eagle Tech Illegally manufacturing products under the XG brand!!!!! Read for yourself at xgbox dot com I cant post links but type that in yourself!
Overall Review: I dont know what to think. XG says that eagle tech was illegally manufacturing things. Because of this I doubt you and I will receive our rebates with them.
Good Deal
Pros: Check out this great review of this case at They have a several additional pictures of the case and, it really isnt that small. I wouldnt recommend for SLI, but it can fit an 8800 or other high end GRFX
Cons: Should replace the front 80mm fan. Get a 120mm fan off this website, with red leds. Its only like 4 dollars.
Overall Review: This case is definitely a great deal, especially after the rebate. It looks cool, has a nice LCD, and with a high CFM 5 dollar fan, it is just a good buy overall.
Pros: About a 2-3x improvement from my onboard video in frames when playing games. If you play graphically intensive games, go with something better obviously. Quiet Fan, overclocks easily.
Cons: Nothing really
Overall Review: P4 2.93GHz, 512mb RAM, this, 160gb hd. Get this for everyday use, it works perfect.
