Pros: Just purchased this video card and it runs every game at max settings 1680x1050 res. and smooth as can be. price is perfect for the performance

Cons: card runs HOT, and it's not because the card lacks a good fan. The problem is the fan is set to only go 30% for some reason by default. It's highly recommended you use NView or equivalent to change the settings on the card's fan. Mine went from a 70C full load to a 40C full load. Now I am unable to get the card to get hotter than 45C. You must change these settings or your card will not live very long!!!

Overall Review: the stock setting for the fan is rediculous, they should have noticed that before releasing it. If it wasn't for that setting I would have given it 5 stars.

Pros: This controller works right out of the box on WinXP, all the analog and buttons are setup automatically for most modern games. games like madden even give exact images of the controller and have control schemes based on it

Cons: if you dont keep it clean the analogs will stick - you MUST keep it clean to keep it working, if you do get it dirty, you can take it apart and clean it pretty easily. I have had to do this and it's just a matter of taking the screws off the back and seperating the controller (be careful not to lose any buttons) then just cleaning the analog sticks with rubbing alcohol and a cloth.

Pros: excellent RAM! I purchased this set and put it into my new motherboard and it recognized the dual channel right away. timings 4-4-4-15-5 everything runs perfectly. memtested it overnight when I got it and it passed. Furthermore the heat spreaders do a very good job, this memory wont get your motherboard hot at all.

Cons: wasn't free

Pros: this is an excellent PSU that they could easily charge more and people would still buy. The volt/amps are truely amazing. There isn't a piece of hardware out there that I can think of that would need more juice than these can push. Dont pay as much attention to the overall watts, how well each rail gives amps/volts is what's important and this thing delivers.

Cons: none

Overall Review: very quiet, much quieter than the 400W PSU it replaced.

Pros: good economical "tool-less" case. Plenty of space for drives, everything fits nicely. Front of case is one large filter, it's easy to add fans to the front. The rear fan is large, runs well.

Cons: should have a side fan near the video card. the manual is useless. There's a few extra pieces I dont know what they are for beause the manual doesn't say jack about it!

Pros: This processor is not only economical it's also very well made. Runs very quiet, fast, and cool. With the stock heatsink/fan and no additional thermal paste or any enhancements this proc. stays around 35-40C, even at full load.

Cons: uhm, none
