Pros: It powers 2 HD4870s in crossfireX at 790/1080 and my core2 quad 9300 at 3.0 ghz. Also have 2 HDDs and 2 optical burners and 7 case fans. Much quieter than my previous 500 watt apevia (which is 4 years old and going strong). Good deal.

Cons: Still kinda hard to manage all the cables but even my slightly less than full size case (apevia x-navigator) can fit all the cables just fine.

Overall Review: I was actually worried that it wouldn't power both video cards but it pulled strong and my battery backup overloaded! On intense gaming, the battery backup goes into overload. I think it's rated at 750 VA so I might need to upgrade that next..

Pros: It worked fine for my secondary drives up to the day it died.

Cons: After about a year it totally freaked out. I ended up buying an entire new computer just to find out it was the raid card that was bad.

Overall Review: Didn't try to call tech support because it never occured to me that it was the raid card. Only after I installed the card on a new board did it show its ugliness.

Pros: This is a follow up review. I've had this processor for the good part of 2 years now and have put it through it's paces. Through out the time that I've had it, it's never been a major bottleneck for any games or applications that I've used. For reference, I've been running 2 HD4870s in crossfirex for a majority of the time. I expect it to last me to the next socket change for intel at minimum.

Cons: The only real con I can think of is the temperature, but that may be a combination of a number of things.. It idles around 35 degrees but during heavy sessions can reach 70, which is not at all dangerous to the processor, but ramps up the fan speed to max. I also haven't gotten it past 3.2 with an aftermarket cooler, but I didn't really expect a 1 ghz oc anyway.

Overall Review: I ditched the stock cooler immediately and am running the first gen Arctic 7 pro. In retrospect, maybe a zalman would've worked better but that's not for this review. Overall, a very robust processor that might now be obsoleted by an i5 750, but an excellent option for pentium 775 owners wanting to get a quad.

Pros: Got this running with my Visiontek 4870 in CrossfireX. This card is quieter, runs cooler, looks better and has more overclocking potential than the Visiontek. For the price, there really isn't any excuse to buy anything more. The only thing I would go for is the 1 gig edition, but my setup was limited by my 1st gen Visiontek's 512 megs.

Cons: While the overclocking potential is there, I can't seem to get it to run any higher than 1000 mem speed, whereas the Visiontek will max out at 1100. GPU speed is both at 790.

Overall Review: I got this card as a gift to compliment my original card and ended up switching slots so that I could run this as the primary adapter in the top slot. Whenever I run in XP, I remove the Visiontek. The process is pretty painless and it starts up every time. Now with the latest updates, I can keep the crossfire in XP, but it's a shoot in the barrel.. Sometimes XP recognizes it.. sometimes it's disabled. In Vista, crossfireX always works and it scales beautifully in Supreme Commander.

Pros: A lot quieter under load than my previous visiontek 4870, though to be fair that card still had the reference cooler. Also runs a lot cooler under load and the same fan conditions as the visiontek. I like the color scheme better too as it matches the blue LEDs in my case.

Cons: It doesn't seem to overclock as well as the visiontek. When I autotuned both in crossfire, the memory was limited by the Sapphire. The Visiontek could hit 1090 memory no prob (it's max) but the sapphire bottlenecked the duo to 980. Might try it again.

Overall Review: Got it as a gift to run in crossfire but I run in XP most of the time so now it has replaced my visiontek as the main card.

Pros: 4 gigs of corsair ram for less than $100? Why buy anything else? It booted up and runs in vista 64 flawlessly. It ran temporarily at 460 mhz while I was tweaking with overclocking on a q9300 with no blips.

Cons: It's not DDR3. It's only 800 mhz though it matches perfectly with 1600 FSB chipsets. I have to wait on the MIR though it was a great deal even without it.

Overall Review: I dunno what the issue with the packaging was for other people. My ram came out just fine. My office box on the other hand was nigh impossible to open! I've always wanted corsair ram so this was certainly a nice deal.
