Just what I needed

EVGA GeForce GTX 1650 SC ULTRA GAMING GDDR6, 04G-P4-1257-KR, 4GB GDDR6, Dual Fan, Metal Backplate
EVGA GeForce GTX 1650 SC ULTRA GAMING GDDR6, 04G-P4-1257-KR, 4GB GDDR6, Dual Fan, Metal Backplate

Pros: Quiet, cheap, perfect for older PC

Cons: You have to register to download video drivers for Win10?

Overall Review: Bought this to upgrade older HP Envy with AMD FX-6350 (about 7 years old) to play World of Warships. Stock video was 24fps with medium-low settings. This card rocks at 78fps at max settings. No more sluggish response, or weird video artifacts. The game video quality is stunning at max settings. This is a perfect video card to update an older PC without extra heat and fan noise.

Perfect for small size chassis

ICY DOCK MB082SP-1 EZ-FIT PRO Dual 2.5" HDD & SSD Full Metal Mounting Bracket for Internal 3.5" Drive Bay w/ Cable

Pros: Comes with everything you need to swap out an old 3.5" HD and replace with two 2.5 SSDs. Even comes with foam pads if needed (I didn't use them) for ensuring the 2.5" drives are snug. Also comes with a power splitter in case you only have 1 power plug so that you can power 2 drives, and comes with 2 locking data cables.

Cons: Nothing

Overall Review: The 2.5" drives mount securely and lock-in place without mounting screws in the 3.5" housing. The housing itself mounts in a 3.5" drive slot using existing screws/hardware. So if you are mounting this as an addition to an existing build you will need screws to mount the 3.5" housing itself. If you are replacing a 3.5" drive with 1 or 2 2.5" drives then nothing else is needed.

solid so far...

Microsoft Windows Server Standard 2008 32Bit/x64 English 1pk DSP OEI DVD 1-4CPU 5 Clt w/Hyper V

Pros: Installed 64bit on OC'd AMD64x2 5600/ASUS M3A/8GB OCZ HPC RAM. Not a single hiccup yet -as this has been up and running 24/7 for 4 months straight so far. Fax service from clients is much more responsive than server2003. Migrated domain/web/exchange and multiple other services from two 2003 servers to this machine and it didn't blink. Haven't experienced any issues at all.

Cons: none.....yet (it's Microsoft)

Overall Review: Was running beta's and pre-releases before this came out and was a bit nervous because of the issues I've had with them -such as drivers not loading properly and leaving devices installed but not functioning such as LAN, video, and Fax/mdm. I must say that I was quite relieved when I didn't experience any of these issues with the final release.
