Flawless

Pros: I installed 4 gigs of this into an abit aw9d max mb and worked perfectly. I did have to adjust the timings manually though.
Cons: a heat spreader would be nice, but they run crisy cool.
Overall Review: A little expensive, but the tradeoff is zero problems.
New ideas to a low priced case

Pros: Built in MB risers, screwless design is great, moves a TON of air! The mounting hardware for Harddrives, 5.25 inch bays, and the 3.5 inch bay is almost to good. Case is thick enough to accomodate any aftermarket processor cooler.
Cons: Nothing included to seal off the side venilation if a person wanted to seal it off. I had to seal the side vents off so it moves more air through the case. The reset button absolutely sucks. It is almost impossible to use.
Overall Review: Ditching fancy style for performance is something you trade for in this case. It still looks great though. This case is an awsome deal, just make use you get a good quality PSU with a 120mm fan on it to help pull air out of the case. This case pulls close to 100 cubic feet per minute when it's setup properly which is enough to keep any system extra chilly.
Does what it is supposed to.

Pros: Does exactly what it is supposed to.
Cons: none
Overall Review: I wish it could have had black ends instead of white ends. It doesn't matter though.
Memory defaulting.

Pros: There is so many pros to this board I can't write them all down.
Cons: I don't like the sata location next to the processor.
Overall Review: This is probably the best board for the core 2 duo setup. It is quad ready, but I wouldn't recommend running a quad core on it.
ABIT AW9D MAX install.

Pros: Large size, quiet operation, awsome cooling.
Cons: the fan doesn't have an RPM monitor
Overall Review: When installing in a abit aw9d max install the fan three fins lower and let air pass directly over the cpu.
Don't forget the 4 to 8 pin adapter

Pros: Can't say enough great things about this power supply
Cons: I wish it included a 4 to 8 pin atx12v1 adapter
Overall Review: Best quality under triple digit spending.
