ASUS Eee PC EPC1000HA-BLK001X Black Intel Atom N270(1.60 GHz) 10.0" WSVGA 1GB Memory 160GB HDD NetBook
ASUS Eee PC EPC1000HA-BLK001X Black Intel Atom N270(1.60 GHz) 10.0" WSVGA 1GB Memory 160GB HDD NetBook

Pros: i have a 701 and now a 1000ha WOW what a difference the LED screen is brighter, sharper, and more crisp the sheer speed is insane 2 gigs with xp pro 1 partition this thing is a monster. kills my 14inch toshiba dual core 4gigs of ram very sleek keys are just perfect for touch typing and im a programmer.. runs divx fox on demand.com more of a true laptop if you know how to use it.. those who are complaining should weigh the price and the strengths of this laptop ... this isnt a net book this is a true machine..

Cons: who cares about the shift key you have a left hand use it... don't like the eeepc logo in the corner of the laptop so i stuck a sticker there.. finger prints galore

Overall Review: i agree with the other guy it should come with cup o noodles thing is awesome..

Mine died today

ASRock 990FX Extreme3 AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
ASRock 990FX Extreme3 AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

Pros: Amazing board while it worked it was definitely fast and the bios was already upgraded to 1.20 it was stamped right on the board with a sticker.

Cons: 8prong power brick only for top mounted psu, if not it will be a long stretch from the bottom of the case. The cmos battery will be covered by your graphics card, the mofsets get hot to the touch to fry eggs and bacon. It overclocks like a champ but now i can't get it to even post no beeps no screen no nothing. RMA~ or extended warrantee fix by either newegg or asrock... or just spend the money on a more expensive board

Overall Review: it got a 7.6 with a fx8120 on the wei vs my old q6600 7.1 definitely faster~! i don't even know why it won't post.

amazing!

AMD FX-8120 - FX-Series Zambezi 8-Core 3.1 GHz Socket AM3+ 125W Desktop Processor - FD8120FRGUBOX

Pros: awesome new gaming rig! from the box to build 1hr games bf3 out of the box no problems overclocks hard out of the box! stock speed to no increase in voltage to get to 3.7ghz amazing chip uses little current with littleheat production.

Cons: still don't understand why amd still has a chip with pins??

Overall Review: don't read the benchmarks online till u've built one, 8gigs of ram ddr3 1600 128gig ssd gtx 560 2gigs on liquid. an amazing build from a q6600 sli rig to this! its amazing!

works!!!

HyperX 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model KHX1600C9D3X1K2/8GX

Pros: cheap, timings work on the asus lga 775 board quad core q6600 .. yes an old legacy processor but it was 140 bucks to upgrade board and ram vs rebuilding the whole system. The ram clocks down to 1066 and can OC

Cons: not free, and the tank game isn't that great

Overall Review: i love newegg its been over 5 years of ordering products and they ship and get it done!

OC Ram for hp 311

Crucial 2GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model CT25664BC1067

Pros: overclocks to 1333 except that the hp 311 doesn't go that high. Great timings and can even fine tune them if you are lucky enough to have those options in your bios

Cons: wasn't free

Overall Review: wish i could put 2 of these in my netbook!

Pros: 0 heat - lower power consumption higher speeds on crystal bench 116sequential read and 92 write.. the standard sam*sun* drive was getting an average of 76/73 this drive may not be the fastest drive but its faster than any spinning drive on non raid. All the programs are 100% responsive and there is 0 stutter issue there are several reviews on *utuBe*

Cons: it wasn't free, and only 119gigs when partitioned out :(

Overall Review: good gAwed newegg is fast ordered at night 3 day free shipping and here in 1 day.. man its crazy... hp 311 is said to be sata 2 standard but i've only hit 116/92 on this drive the max this drive can do on an actual desk top is 120-124 write and/ 99 read it was benched on an i7 system on the web.. this drive is well worth it... enjoy the speed.
