Pros: Discounted price Large (relative to other netbooks) screen Win7 64-bit Second RAM expansion bay Supports more RAM then advertised Avg about 6.5 hrs battery life (though specs still rate 8-9hrs) Min bloatware No software/BIOS glitches/issues CPU out performs Intel counterparts (though not by much under some circumstances)

Cons: Built in cam only .3meg - I dont do video conferencing and its bad enough to irritate me. Trackpad issue like everyone else, but easy to fix, simply apply a little less then 1/5 in double sided tape around the border of the trackpad. You will have to open the front of cover of the netbook.

Overall Review: btw - Batman-oneyear, thanx for stripping and breaking most of the screws on this netbook and then simply returning it to newegg instead of RMA to the manufacture. Despite that I still fixed the trackpad and erased all your personal info you left on it.

Pros: Space. All the space you could want. Wire/cable management is super easy. Despite all the space, I did not run into any issues that needed cable extensions. I did have to use some for a few of the fans, but that was only because I routed the cables to a external bay Fan Controller I added, otherwise the built in fan ports on the case solve that issue. The case itself (steel) is very sturdy despite its weight - no flexing or bowing. Airflow is superb, even with just the included fans - though I plan to add more. Internal bays are easy to use and are of decent (though not great) quality. The power/reset buttons have great tactile feel - nothing cheap or flimsy about them. I saw some reviews about concerns regarding all the mesh on the outside being prone to dents - though they would dent before a solid surface, they are sturdy and of good quality; you would have to hit it fairly hard to dent it. The features overall.

Cons: One problem. When I opened the box and pulled off the loose wrap and two Styrofoam sides I found that the entire from panel was broke off. Every plastic piece that holds the panel on to the case was broke off, split in two or just shattered into several pieces. I knew something was amiss when I could hear 3 dozen little plastic pieces bouncing around. There is no damage to the case box and the Styrofoam (that covers /supports the front and rear) didn't appear to be compressed or damaged. There are no scuff marks on the cover. What a shame, everything else about this case is of decent to good or great quality. Even the front panel piece for the most part is of good quality, just not the pegs that snap into the front of the case. I debated awhile about doing just one vs two stars - everything about this case otherwise is 5+ stars.

Overall Review: Yes, you can mount a Corsair H115i to the top of the case, but it will take the place of the two 230mm fans and they don't really fit anywhere else and are useless. The definitely can not be added back to the top but between the case and top cover, just a little two wide due to the supports (the top cover comes off - prolly could add some 140mm fans.

Pros: Overclocks to 4.6 w/ a vcore of 1.390. No matter what the voltage, a single core will throw errors at 4.7 or higher clock. Temps stay around 25c on OC while idle. Core temps hover around 77c under Prime95 with Corsair 115i.

Cons: none

Overall Review: A number of sources have pointed out this chip is difficult to OC past 4.5/4.6.

Pros: Overclocks well. Plethora of tuning options. After the initial hiccup, worked perfectly until it one day stopped working at all (about 3 months after purchase). So lets talk about RMA process. On the bright side, RMA was approved and once they got my old board, turn around was about 5 days. But that's all that is good about the process, well that and at least they honored their warranty.

Cons: Out the box, I had an issue with it making it past POST due to the BIOS not supporting Nvidia 10 series GFX. With a little research realized that an update was needed and same resolved POST issues. The BIOS was the original from MSI (12 months ago. To be fair, this may have been an original board that hadn't been sold yet by Newegg. About 3 months after purchase, the board would not power up. LEDs on the board would turn on (not attached fans though) but that was it. After confirming PSU worked, I RMA'd the board. Though turn around was quick, there was no feed back from MSI - I don't know if they fixed my board or I got a refurb. I was emailed a link with a progress scale, but it didn't change the entire time they had it until after they shipped it back. i also was never informed of what was wrong; but I am thankful they covered it under warranty. The new one has been working for the past week just fine. At least I didn't have to update BIOS again (hmm).

Pros: they do their job, lights up red and moves air as spec'd. Not too noisy overall and runs like new (bought it 3 months ago).

Cons: None

Pros: It does its job, lights up green and moves air as spec'd. Not too noisy overall and runs good like new (bought it 3 months ago).

Cons: None.

I have only ordered one thing, and it worked when I got it. Almost one year later it still works.
