Intel Core i3-2100 - Core i3 2nd Gen Sandy Bridge Dual-Core 3.1 GHz LGA 1155 65W Intel HD Graphics 2000 Desktop Processor - BX80623I32100

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 BOXDH67BLB3 LGA 1155 Intel H67 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

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.

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.

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.
