Pros: Looks great. Front is brushed AL, sides are painted steel. The components are well made and sturdy. I think the front-mounted PSU is neat and it's quiet. The optical drive door works without a hitch. The price is excellent for what you get...assuming everything continues to work as it is now.

Cons: The front panel power LED is too bright. The HDD LED is too dark. When I used the front panel USBs for an external HDD, the audio from the front panel was very noisy (strange squealing noise). I'd like an additional air vent on the left(top) of the case. The case feet included are sticker-applied, so you are kind of stuck once you pick your case orientation.

Overall Review: I think I remember some other reviewers saying the front panel is a pain, but I did not find it difficult or annoying. The PSU switch is off from the factory, and you have to remove the front panel to switch it on, so flip it over when you are installing your optical drive and HDD. I LOVE the way the power button feel when you press it. *clicky*clicky*clicky* I want to press it over and over. :P

Pros: Uh, you can type with it. It's cheap.

Cons: This keyboard is clunky-large. The keys are digusting to type on. They are smooth and slow. I thought I did enough research first, but you should definitely try a keyboard in the store before you buy it!

Overall Review: Who actually uses all the extra features? The only thing I ever want to actually use is the standard keys, the windows key, and a volume KNOB.

Pros: Works without issues. Solid construction.

Cons: No cons.

Overall Review: I'm just using the basic HDMI capability, so I can't validate all the claimed features (3D, ethernet, audio return).

Pros: Low price. The sounds it makes are acceptable. You can tell the motor is powerful - it sounds cool.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Why aren't all DVD optical devices packaged with DVD decoders? What a pain! Am I missing something?

Pros: Overclocks well. Why would you buy Intel when AMD makes excellent CPUs for way less??? Stop buying Intel!

Cons: I am usually satisfied with stock heatsinks, but this one is extremely loud. I mean it's like my computer should have been taking off for flight. Replaced with a low-end aftermarket and it's all good.

Overall Review: Again, AMD CPUs are more than good enough. Save your money for the other components. My budget gaming build - spent $500 and it's great. Why do people think they have to spend so much? MB: Asus MA378-EM CPU: AMD AX2 7750 @ 2.7GHz GPHX: ASUS 9500 GT TOP RAM: G-Skill 2x2GB 1066

Pros: The heat spreaders are a really nice looking color and the G-Skill logo looks great on them.

Cons: None.
