Pros: Still runs after five years of use, albeit it does make a lot of noise when booting up. Little to no fragmentation, disk is still pretty decent.

Cons: Like I said, kind of loud on start up, but it goes away. I think it's actually defective, but hey. It runs.

Pros: Has lasted over 5 years of almost daily gaming use, a very good board for a budget build

Cons: Eventually has started to fail, some USB ports don't run all the time, the audio jacks are a little bit picky, but still. Five years. That's a good board.

Wow.

Pros: Very fast CPU, heatsink that comes with it attaches easily (I tried attaching it on backwards :[) Heatsink/fan comes with thermal grease on it already. Easy inserting on an Abit ANM2-HD, encountered no problems whatsoever. I found the heatsink a little big but works fine for me. Very fast, runs BF2 like a dream.

Cons: Uh... Well. The heatsink/fan could have had some more instructions..? Yea. None.

Overall Review: System Specs: AM2 AMD 64 x2 Windsor 6000+ 3 GHz, OCZ Platinum Revision 240 pin 2gb ( 2 x 1 gb), Abit ANM2-HD motherboard, Gecube 512mb 256-bit x1950PRO, Seagate barracuda 250gb 7200 RPM hard drive, APEVIA x-Cruiser Blue LED case, Vantec 80mm 84CFM fan, Some DVD drive that goes 48x DVD, Rosewill Stallion Series Blue LED 600w +12v x2 PSU. Speed!
