Pros: It's DDR2 RAM. Not too much to mess up on there. It runs fine with everything I've thrown at it.

Cons: None.

Pros: Great drive, no coasters, reads and writes very quickly.

Cons: I'm only giving the drive 4/5 stars because it tends to get very loud when reading some discs.

Pros: This is a great processor for the price. AM2 is the future of AMD, so I'd recommend this if you want to be ready for the next generation without emptying your wallet.

Cons: None.

Pros: Very nice choice for a first build. Graphics are surprisingly good for being integrated - I tried some fairly recent games (Quake 4 and RCT3 come to mind) and they ran far better than expected.

Cons: Audio was a little hard to set up in Linux, but nobody said it ever had to be easy ;)

Overall Review: Windows graphics drivers included on the CD seem to work better than the latest nVidia officials.

Pros: What can I say, it's a hard drive. Not a lot to mess up. It's nice and quiet, very fast.

Cons: None

Pros: Great for a first build. Very roomy. The rubber gaskets around the hard drive screws were a nice touch. This is more of a generic office-type case, but it's highly recommended if that's what you need.

Cons: I/O shield was a little hard to replace. It was kind of awkward to slide the motherboard so that it lined up properly.

Overall Review: Antec lives up to its reputation once again.
