One of the best single cores out there

Pros: At 1.55 volts this CPU can run stable at 3.18 GHz with temps never going above 52 C. At speeds over 3.1 GHz plus a 1MB L2 cache this is a great single core and is amazing for the price.
Cons: N/A
Overall Review: I would still recommend a Brisbane X2 3600+ or 4000+ if you have a motherboard that can overclock. Both the Brisbane 3600+ and Brisbane 4000+ can run stable over 3.1 GHz plus you can enjoy the performance of a dual core for only a few dollars more.
Great Budget Motherboard

Pros: Just plug and play this board had no problem recognizing all my hardware including my 5200+ and I was able to stably increase the FSB to 250
Cons: The 570 chipset only runs 8X in SLI mode...Even though this is a con the only video cards able to use utilize anything over 8X is the 8800 GTX and 8800 Ultra
Overall Review: This is a great motherboard for the price...Being about to increase the FSB to 250 allows for some room to overclock
Stunning

Pros: At 800 MHz I could hold a timing of 4-3-4-8-1T with on 2.2V but with a looser timing of 5-5-5-15 I could go up to 1230 MHz on 2.4V
Cons: N/A
Overall Review: This ram is great for both holding stock timing with low timings and overclocking
GREAT PRODUCT!!!

Pros: The Sentry 1 Controller Panel looks great in my NZXT Zero Case. Everything works perfect and it is actually made out of metal. Unbelievable for under $25.
Cons: The only con that I have seen with this product is the clock is not AM/PM but is military time.
Overall Review: Watch out before setting the date and time make sure you remove the plastic tab in front of the battery. Without remove it you will loose all your settings when you turn off your PC.
Great Price

Pros: Great video card for the money can handle any of my games with settings set at Max...3dMark06=3382 and 3dMark05=6197
Cons: There are alot better video cards out but for the price with the mail in rebate this card was hard to beat
Overall Review: Current setup AMD X2 5200+ (CPU), BFG 7600 GT (GPU), BFG NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI (Motherboard), Mushkin HP-580AP (PS), XION Solaris XON-403 (Case), and 1 GB DDR2-533 (Ram)
Price + Performance = Great Deal

Pros: Runs cool and works great with my BFG BFGRANF590S Board
Cons: N/A
Overall Review: Use Arctic Silver 5 with Heat sink to keep everything running cool
