very nice

Pros: board came with 1 SATA 1 IDE 1 FD cable, manual, driver cd all in a very nice fabric pouch. did not come with any junk you dont need. this is a no frills board with a clear manual and loaded features. basically same as deluxe without raid and different LAN controller. cheap, no chipset fans, stable, and has overclock features. smaller board than other brands.
Cons: placement of ATX and aux power connectors are below socket, which is not ideal.
Overall Review: Running E6400, TForce965PT, 2GB XMS2 Corsair, Seagate 320 7200.10, MSI 8800GTS640
fast card

Pros: wow this card is fast. tested real fast on 3dmark 06 and got 7500 with C2D E6400 and 2GB PC800. playing supreme commander with full details, AA, 20" widescreen. no slowdowns ever.
Cons: quite a big card, but fits fine in mid-tower ATX.
Overall Review: built this system just to play supreme commander, well worth it.
very good

Pros: like others have said, this thing was seriously made from a solid piece of aluminum. keys are quiet with good keystroke length. LEDs are not eye-burning bright. keyboard feels solid with a heavy weight! definitely worth the price, BUT will have to see how long the scissors last.
Cons: some getting used to is needed. when they say zero tilt, they seriously mean zero tilt.
Overall Review: have tried literally all of these laptop type keyboards when they first came out. scissors are the only way to go, but even then some keyboards die. im hoping for the price i paid for this it will last longer than a couple years.

Comments: Bought 1 GB of this stuff for reliability, not overclocking. What can I say, no crashes due to memory, uptime as long as 1 week and no hiccups.

Comments: The picture of the box is not what I got in the mail, but it was still a Newcastle 3200+. Anyway, great chip, this would be my 5th AMD chip and I am yet again impressed with the price/performance ratio. I keep telling myself the next one will be an Intel, but I keep buying AMD, go figure.
Comments: Been using this board for about 1 month now with a 3200+. Really like the features though I don't use most of them. The features that I do use have some quircks. For example, external firewire sound card stops working if you restart the machine. A hard reboot (turn off, then on) is needed. The onboard sound is the worst I have ever heard; continuous static noise audible at all volume levels, which made me wanting to RMA it, but figured I would never use it. Other than that no problems.
