Pros: Smooth as butter. Upgraded from a pair of 8800 GTS 320s, and everything is smoother at 1920x1200. Less noise, less heat.

Cons: Slightly crowded in my case, but not any more so than having two 8800GTSs in there.

Overall Review: Newegg really stepped up on the rebate snafu from last week. Rebate on the product page when I purchased on 11/19. Got the product and went to fill the info on the rebate site, to find that the rebate was expired on 11/4 and no other rebates current for that P/N. So I opened the chat support page, told what happened and they are crediting my purchasing account the full rebate amount. Great job taking care of your customers, Newegg!

Pros: Good construction, very stylish bag.

Cons: Capacity dimensions are listed as being bigger than my Inspiron 1720 all around. However, it's a VERY tight fit. Hopefully, I can leave the laptop in there overnight and stretch it out.

Overall Review: I wish it had shorter handles and a separate shoulder strap... But it was one of the few that can actually fit my laptop.

Pros: USB 3, Sata 6.0, Z68, UEFI, $100. Heck of a value

Cons: No internal 3.0 headers. Apparently the USB 3.0 controller isn't compatible with some devices, but I have no USB 3.0 devices as of yet. Drivers from the ASRock page are out of date.

Overall Review: I had an issue with network traffic going across the LAN when originating from this rig. Transfer speeds were around 250 Kbps. I was using the latest drivers from the ASrock page as well as the drivers that came on the CD. When I updated to the Realtek drivers, the issue went away and I was able to saturate the 100Mbit connection on the router. Time for a new router.

Pros: Small and powerful enough, decently priced. The remote funtionality is surprisingly good.

Cons: Noisy when the fan spins up. The buttons on the remote like to stick a lot, especially the mouse directional pad.

Overall Review: While I'm sure speed could be helped by maxxing out the RAM and adding an SSD, in stock form, the slowness is acceptable. I play 720p mkvs over the network (wired) without issue. I don't have any issues streaming netflix or hulu HD. I do have it hooked up via D-sub and separate audio cable as opposed to HDMI, as I could never get the proper resolution to set right on the TV itself, a 42" Vizio. I will echo a previous reviewer's comments as to disappointment that the audio jack is on the front. I do like the combined audio/optical jack, and am looking for a set of 5.1s with an optical in. This in combination with an external blu-ray drive will let me minimize the number of components in my TV setup. I'm also contemplating drilling ventilation and attaching a USB 120 or 140mm fan to see if that can prevent the onboard fan from spinning up so much.

Pros: Value line, value price. I've ordered value line before with no issues. Two eggs because it's this batch in particular.

Cons: This particular batch caused random, intermittent BSODs. Two sticks of 1GB, tried together and separately.

Overall Review: Used on an Acer Revo AR1600.

Pros: Hardly audible. Makes my hard drive noise audible by comparison.

Cons: Time to upgrade the hard drive, i guess.

Overall Review: Waiting on second GTS 8800 to SLI, then we'll see how quiet it really is.
