Great Card In A Big Box

Pros: Fast card! Replaced an FX 5900. Works well with DirectX 9.0c (XP) you will be able to max out older games, but the card really excels as a budget DirectX 10 (Vista) solution. No fan (very slick and quiet). Huge box for a GPU.
Cons: Drivers are a little tricky. AMD/ATI drivers didn't reconized the card, so I grabbed the most recent from ASUS's website. Open the zip file with WINRNR clicked on the setup file, and all is good.
Overall Review: Just a great card for the money, but a novice may have trouble installing it.
Great value case for the money!

Pros: The case is built like a tank, fans and controller included, button on top controls many different light settings.
Cons: None for the price best bang for the dollar
Overall Review: If youre looking for a really good budget case thats built like a tank, and you also get a controller with RGB lighting. Look nowhere else just buy this.
Great Budget Option High Performance at Max TDP

Pros: Very fast for gaming and internet. It will run at a much higher TDP ( thermal design power or point) with an after market cooler. It will give you a big performance uplift running at a higher TDP. Great value.
Cons: Hotter than the center of the sun at full performance. I'm able to cook marshmallows now with my exhaust fan...
Overall Review: All kidding aside...this is a great value for the amount of performance given... It runs hot when given what she needs so make sure she has lots of ventilation. Great stuff
Good Solid Drive

Pros: Value Speed
Cons: None so far
Overall Review: Performs at stated specs, pleased with purchase.
So far so good!

Pros: I was skeptical at first but the drive performs well. I replaced a WD 7200 black 750GB / 16 MB cache with this drive after cloning with Apricorn’s: Notebook Drive Upgrade Kit. I must say that loading times are much faster after 5-10 reboots and I haven’t lost any loading time on games or apps. 8 GB of NAND and 64 MB of cache does the trick with a 5400rpm drive… go figure! I will keep my WD black as is, just in case of future drive failure, only time will tell…but so far it’s been great.
Cons: None so far but only time will tell.
Overall Review: Good value to performance, I would purchase this over a 7200 RPM drive.
Greatest Bang For The Buck

Pros: Crysis Max ED, Far Cry 2, Grid, etc. all perform very well with no lag (1600x900 res.) @ very high (max) settings. The value of this card is - THE BEST OUT THERE!
Cons: NONE
Overall Review: This card runs hot which means the Dark Knight cooling solution is working, and very efficient. I have 3 fans, one blowing directly on the card and two exhausting air. Case temps stay low with this configuration. Card pulls in excess of 300 watt @ full load. Dual 6 pin power connectors. Have fun with it!
