Pros: I came into this series late because I was still having so much fun with my other Total War series games that I could afford to wait for this bad boy to drop in price. I have been a fan of Total War since Rome came out all those years ago. The graphics are great and the strategy and AI is much improved from past games. Battles have a much faster pace, being more arcade than all the previous titles, but not as fast as Rome 2 has come to be. When I think of all this game has to offer, I instantly think of the word unique. Its a fun and new experience and I love that the game is so focused on one location. This allows for a much more in-depth political and economical strategy game. If you like strategy and the other Total War games, you'll love this one. Also, love playing multiplayer campaigns with my friends!

Cons: none.

Pros: -

Cons: -

Overall Review: Laptop still slow despite ssd. Has problems with ACER software.

Pros: i bought this board back in October of 2012 as I was building a higher end gaming computer. I wanted a good board that would allow me to do plenty of variations and upgrades throughout time. Easy to set up and have had relatively no problems except for what I will post about in the cons section. I play very demanding games and the board has supported my high end Graphic card amazingly and I have not had any overheating problems at all. Great Board for the higher end gamer.

Cons: Everything worked very well with my board up until about May of 2013. I woke up one day and found that my hard drive was not being recognized and was continually going to the system Bios screen. This board has 6 SATA slots and after moving my hard drive around, 3 SATA slots later everything was working. The problem is that now, instead of 6 working SATA slots, I have 3. This has been a frustration because, sure I could probably take apart the WHOLE thing and get a replacement board, but with only 2 SATA drive in use I can plan on having one more in use for an SSD and then I will eventually upgrade the motherboard. Basically, its more of a hassle to get it replaced with the warranty then its really worth in my case. The SATA slots have been the only problem however and I am very happy with how this board has turned out.
