Pros: Great controllers Wireless
Cons: Draws too much USB power Causes other devices not to work Cannot turn off controllers without unpluggin the receiver or batteries
Overall Review: The receiver will not work on EVGA 680i motherboards and some other hardware. The problem seems to be that it draws too much power and causes other USB devices on the same controller to be unable to function. There is a workaround though that does work. You need to plug the Xbox 360 receiver into a powered USB hub. So take on another few bucks to your purchase of this device. Thanks M$!
