Pros: This is an ideal card if you need both serial and parallel connectivity -- both ports are on one slot! One of each additional ports are available, but not necessary. Just be sure to choose a MOBO with one or two PCI slots.

Cons: Does not provide free beer.

Pros: It exists.

Cons: The retaining latch on the 20+4 plug was broken off and rattling around in the box. Initially, I considered using it anyway, but after all, someone designed that plug shell to lock to the socket for a reason, and besides why should I put up with second-best on a new build. I had peeled the barcode off the box for the usual rebate deadline. Initially, Newegg accepted the RMA, but when the missing barcode was noticed they refused to accept it and returned it. Ergo, square-one.

Overall Review: Alright, in the future I'll check out the merchandise before I peel off the barcode. However the fact remains that the PSU was defective out of the box. Nobody like to be stuck with bad equipment, and additional shipping costs. A simple exchange, in the old box, would have left everything cool and everyone happy.

Pros: Horizontal USB ports

Cons: I tried everything I could think of get it to install. The system would not recognize it.

Pros: Compact, solid appearance

Cons: System won't POST with card installed.

Pros: Solid constrtuction

Cons: Defective Display appears is pink and faded
