Pros: Nice cheap DDR4 board

Cons: Docs don't tell you what the BIOS beep codes are.

Overall Review: If you get 5 long beeps followed by a restart that is a RAM issue, not a CPU issue as indicated elsewhere on the infowebs. Gigabyte should include those POST beep codes in the docs

Pros: Small

Cons: This keyboard totally sucks. You have to hit the space bar DIRECTLY in the VERY center of the space bar or it won't work. I have no idea what they were thinking when they made this thing? Apparently nobody who made it bothered to type on it or they would have noticed how useless it is.

Overall Review: If you want a decent keyboard this size get the SIIG one.

Pros: Got decent price on a factory refurbished one here. Seems to work (eventually).

Cons: When you first connect you're given the option to go through their helpful setup wizard or just click manual setup. Obviously I was clicking manual setup. If you skip their helpful wizard the WAN port will not acquire a DHCP address from the cable modem or accept a static one and complains of errors. After lots of messing with it I accidentally started the wizard and after a few more weird errors like the router insisting I disconnect the "TV Cable" from my cable modem (which was working fine) it did finally enable the WAN port however not quite because it still won't display the DHCP assigned IP on its public interface (see image) so if you want to login to your cable modem, good luck guessing its address. And the web admin GUI is slow as balls to do even the simplest thing.

Overall Review: Decent price for the hardware. It

Pros: Didn't explode or catch fire.

Cons: Doesn't work.

Overall Review: Why do I continually fall for the 'recertified' bargains? Who recertifies these things? One day I'll learn.

Pros: good specs.

Cons: Stupid IcePak makes the drive incompatible with both 3.5" and 2.5" RAID sleds. Didn't realize this before I ordered. I guess I assumed WD wouldn't design something boneheaded like this. my bad. Of course you can remove it easily, but that'd void your warranty. great.

Pros: it works.

Cons: Installing a PCIe video card disables the onboard video. MSI's board has the same chipset and does not do this, thus allowing 4 displays. The DVI connector is physically DVI-I but only carries a DVI-D signal so you can't run 2 analog monitors, etc.
