Intel Core i3 - 3.1 GHZ
Pros: Perfection. All I can say, that from installation to configuring, to running and operating this processor is all you need if you choose not to OC. Insert-install-go on with life. Great budget processor.
Cons: None.
Intel LGA 1155 Micro ATX MB
Pros: USB 3.0, didn't use the onboard graphics or audio but they registered just fine on initial start-up. Nice touch if I ever need them. Works good - budget MB.
Cons: Didn't come with a manual but the big fancy poster I got, shows RAM channels and what I needed to know.
Overall Review: Comes with a few nifty desktop applications tools.
Hitachi 500GB
Pros: Works. Budget hard drive.
Cons: 445GB after Windows 7 install. Not a big deal since I don't put movies or music on my computer, but hey.
Veng 4GB (2x2GB)
Pros: Easy install, both recognized immediately by windows. No problems, and runs great.
Cons: Heatsink plastic at the top is tapped together.
CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX650 V2 650W ATX12V
Pros: Quiet, cool, and it works. Come to expect this from Corsair.
Cons: Power AC cord is pretty short. Bought a new for 5 bucks on Newegg that's over double its length. Problem solved.
Overall Review: Comes with a slick little draw string bag.
Sony 24x DVD Burner
Pros: Works. Does the job.
Cons: None so far.
