Good Case, Underthought Addons

HEC 6T Series 6T10LOH400 Black SECC Steel Micro ATX Mini Tower Computer Case with E-SATA included 400W Power Supply

Pros: Case looks great. Nothing was missing or broken when it arrived (thanks newegg). Plenty of room to build inside. Removable HDD cage was a surprising addition. High gloss finish is actually fingerprint resistant! Comes with a 400 watt power supply.

Cons: This case is missing a reset button (really?). The power supply only has 1 sata power connector so a sata hdd and optical drive is out of the question. If you buy this case pick up a molex to sata power converter as well or you'll be taking a trip to radio shack.

Overall Review: It's a good case. I'd use again for budget builds. Now that I know what shortcomings this case has I'll be sure to pick up extra parts that are needed.

Cheap and Slow

Pros: Cheap....Heat spreader...Fired up...No errors

Cons: This memory is S L O W. I'm not sure about longevity.

Overall Review: This memory was cheap and easily installed. It fired up on first attempt. Seems great for a budget build but don't expect any great performance. I'll update when/if this memory fails.

Decent keyboard!

Pros: Bought this board for a budget build. Works great, feels solid, and is actually pretty quiet. The mouse responds well and actually looks and feels quite nice.

Cons: My only gripe with the keyboard is it's funky shaped "Enter" key. I keep hitting the "/" key instead. If this is the only keyboard you use you should get used to that quick enough but, be aware that this is not a standard layout.
