Motherboard review...

ABIT KN8 939 NVIDIA nForce4 ATX AMD Motherboard
ABIT KN8 939 NVIDIA nForce4 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: This board is really nice. It has alot of options and does not cost too much! It has 4 SATAII, 7.0 realtek onboard audio. By the way the set for your surround sound is pretty cool.(GUI) Also it has 3 add ons for USB, even comes with a USB add on card. It has PCIxE and 10/100/1000 ethernet onboard. It has a good quite fan on the north bridge, and has added heat spreader over by the processor. She looks cool, and booted up the very first time i fired her up!!! Im happy and recomend this MB.

Cons: Funny placement for the IDE, and no onboard vid., but thats why it has PCIxE, to add a better graphics card any way, sooo..........

Overall Review: *specs* 3200 venice 1 GB of G,SKILL RAM WD 80 GB SATAII hard drive Raidmax case NEC Dual layer DVD burner Raidmax 380watt power supply ATI X800 graphics card

Vid Card Review

PowerColor Radeon X800GTO 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card X800GTO256MBDDR3

Pros: Looks cool, and thats about it.

Cons: This card has many , many issues. It will crash under load, and is horrible in doom 3. It has errors and artifacts at the stock speed newegg sent it to me at. I just dont understand. My friend had the same card and it look way better. The only difference is he went with another brand......

Overall Review: Also it has lines running across the screen when moving the mouse fast from one wall to the other during game. Maybe i will look into other brands, or just stick with Nvidia.

Fan Review...

Unincom U8025 80mm Cooling Fan
Unincom U8025 80mm Cooling Fan

Pros: The only reason i even gave it 3 stars is because it does help keep my case cool. But also have three other fans that help alot more..

Cons: It is one of the worst, no-air moving fu@$rs i have ever had. I cannot feel air even when i put my hand right up on it. It just has NO power what so ever.

Overall Review: Buy another fan, seriously.

UPS Dopped it...

RAIDMAX Astro ATX-268WB Black 0.7mm Japanese SECC ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
RAIDMAX Astro ATX-268WB Black 0.7mm Japanese SECC ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: -good air flow -looks good -has side window -the front expansion bay covers are really hard plastic, good quality.

Cons: -Really soft metal, the back in/out bends very easy. -if dropped (like ups) the front face plate on the case will snap off, and will never go back on.

Overall Review: newegg customer service is the best
