It's a Great Idea But................

ALAMENGDA Open Computer Case,Two-way Server ATX Motherboard Tray Test Stand, Test bench, ATX Mid Tower
ALAMENGDA Open Computer Case,Two-way Server ATX Motherboard Tray Test Stand, Test bench, ATX Mid Tower

Pros: This is a great idea to be able to breadboard a computer to experiment and test . Accessibility to components and ease of exchange is very good.

Cons: The design engineer didn't go far enough in testing or just didn't want to spend any more time in development. The gauge of the metal is not thick enough. When trying to insert the component mask into the front plate the front plate distorts and twists the entire front assembly.

Overall Review: The way the unit is I wouldn't buy it again however if the metal gauge was increased I think it is a great idea.

Great Fan

Pros: Runs quietly and doesn't occupy a lot of space in the enclosure.

Cons: No objections.

Overall Review: Good value for the dollar.

JetWay JHZ03-GT-V2-LF AM3 AMD 880G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: None so far however that may change.

Cons: In the package is a "Switch Card". I find no reference to it in the manual. Also no way to contact manufacturer for support is listed in the manual. Lack of 1394 header on m/b.
