Pros: Great mobo, very nice oc features

Cons: IDE plug is a pain the rear, sits on the bottom left of the board under the video card. If you run sata, the board is great.. but the IDE port is in a stupid spot.

Most Critical Review

wifi troubles

HP Chromebook 14-q070nr - Intel Celeron 2955U(1.4GHz) 14" 4GB Memory 16GB SSD Intel HD Graphics
HP Chromebook 14-q070nr - Intel Celeron 2955U(1.4GHz) 14" 4GB Memory 16GB SSD Intel HD Graphics

Pros: Small, Lightweight, quick booting, decent price

Cons: Since I bought this product, I have been attempting every fix possible that I have found for the WIFI to work correctly. I have 8 other wireless products in my house that have no issues and can travel up to 30 feet away from the router with absolutely no issues, yet if I am 10 feet from it with the Chromebook 14, I am consistently dropping connection or when I am not dropping, the browser takes an extremely long amount of time to load web pages or streams. With much research, I have realized that many people end up having the same issue and have to return the product for a new one but as I need the product for my business, I cannot take the chance to get another Chromebook with the same issue. Unfortunately I will have to return it and get a laptop from a more reliable company. I am very disappointed with how this has turned out and will not buy another chrome item because of such.

Dead Pixel

Pros: *Great Color *Good size *Great for gaming

Cons: *Dead pixel at 9 months - see below

Overall Review: This monitor has been great for 9 months. I would definitely recommend it to others and probably still will if my issue is taken care of properly. After 9 months of heavy usage, the monitor has a dead pixel right in the middle of the screen, it is not noticeable unless something dark is behind it, so it may have already been there before I noticed it. If this problem is taken care of by Asus or newegg in good fashion, I will probably change the rating and will update the review. Other than this issue, I would rate the monitor 5 stars. I just hope that if it is replaced, it will not be with a refurbished one and it will not happen again !
