Pros: Another great Intel motherboard. After updating the BIOS and LAN this is a screamer. I love Intel. Always will. For you folks out there that are not satisfied with this mobo because you have to do a little thinking, you should not be building your own systems anyway. Buy a vanilla flavored system. For those of you who do think, stick with it and you will be rewarded with a screamer of a machine.

Cons: Outdated BIOS and LAN. Easy fix..............

Overall Review: I'm running GSkill memory and have no problems, Zalman CPU fan and an XFX 5850 ATI and the COOLER MASTER HAF X RC-942-KKN1 and 2 Velociraprors 300 GB WD RAID 0. I'm going to build one for myself only use GSkill SSD's instead of the VP WD's.

Pros: I am unable to list any.

Cons: Where to start. Beware folks. I have purchased many Window software OS's here at Newegg. All OEM. It's what I do. This is not Newegg's fault. If you can find the Ultimate 7 64 bit WITHOUT the service pack then I highly recommend that you do so. It's your only hope. Then do not install SP1. A disaster. My license key is useless. Fresh install, go to type the key, " This Key Has Been Previously Installed". Go to the Microsoft web site and the only fix is to buy a new key. Beware. Microsoft is self destructing. This is it for me. Fed up. How much money does Gates need?

Pros: Again and again I see Newegg blamed for a manufacturerer's glitch. No matter how you slice the slice, every now and then you will get a "rotten egg" per 500 egg's. Tell me, how is that Newegg's problem. I will continue to buy Ridata and I would be miffed if Newegg did not carry them anymore. Go get you just desert's complainer's with the "premium" coaster's.

Cons: There are none. Ridadta is the best.

Pros: I have 4 of these running on Intel's DX48BT2, DX38BT, DP45SG and DP55KG, 2 duo core and 2 quads, and have had plenty of power with ALL ranges of graphics cards and 3 Master Cool cases, 1 full tower, 3 mid-tower, the other being the Antec 900. Never a single problem on any of them. My DX48BT2 runs 24-7 for a year and a half and no problems.

Cons: The only con is the cables. But I have been able to get away with no extensions so far. I don't get too excited if I have a cable or 2 showing.

Overall Review: You can't beat these for the money, period. Also, it doesn't matter what brand you buy, from the most expensive to the cheapest, you ARE going to get a dead one. That would happen in a store, mail order etc... Newegg has always dealt fairly with me and all my builds go through them.

Pros: Put 4 sticks in the Intel DP55KG, fun build in it's own right, and have nothing but great things to say about the GSkill line. I can't wait to get the GSkill SSD paired up with this memory. Thank-you GSkill.

Cons: None, wonderful product and very fast and stable.

Overall Review: I'm going with their 240 GB SSD's for my own build and the above mentioned RAM. It's great to find a company that has it together out of the gate and box.

Pros: Hey Beast, let Windows 7 pick up the initial drive to get you started and then GO ON-LINE and download your drivers. I never use the set-up discs on any video card. It's a waste of time. Always go to the source and get the latest drivers. By the way...... the 5830 and the 5850 work wonderful croos fired together, very little difference between the two. The 5830 uses the 5850's drivers anyway.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: The best VC's out there for the money...........
