Pros: I wanted a CPU upgrade to speed up my video encodes in Handbrake and Vegas. With my old Core2 Duo I was getting about 4 fps for a 1080p video in Handbrake. Now I get about 37!! I know the i7 will get more but this suites my needs perfectly.

Cons: None so far. Packaged fan is quiet and does the job.

Pros: Fan isn't too loud. I purchased it for video editing and photshop and so far it has worked out great. I own one game (Flatout 2) and the graphics settings were maxed and it blew me away. I might need to start playing games again. Price was only 49.95 on sale.

Cons: None so far. Great bargain!

Pros: Love the boot times. I forgot to turn the bios setting from IDE to AHCI and it was still fast. Once I turned it to ACHI it was about 2-3 seconds faster on bootup.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Great drive. Easy to install. I recommend doing fresh OS install on this rather than replicating your current OS drive. I tried it. It worked, but it was really buggy. Once I did the fresh install everything worked wonderfully.

Pros: I like all of the features they've put on this tiny board. The 5 SATA ports are nice. Two RAM slots does the job. You're probably not going to use a board like this for hardcore gaming because of its slot limitations and small size but for the rest of us it's a nice board. The price is great for a brand that is even better.

Cons: Probably not for gamers but it works for what I need.

Pros: I expected a weaker construction but was happy with what I got. It may not be the best case for the price but I can't complain. The power supply does the job though I can't comment on longevity/reliability yet. 4 HDD/SSD drive bays for a micro atx case is a nice perk. That may be standard now but my previous case only had 2.

Cons: The side panel isn't flush with the front when s-c-r-e-w-e-d (newegg didn't like that word) on so you see a little stript of the grey metal. Not a deal-breaker but you should know.

Overall Review: This is a nice micro atx case if you're on a budget. You'll be happy with what you get for the money.

Pros: Excellent range for both 2.4ghz and 5ghz Great menu gui and options Hooked up my 4g dongle to the USB slot without issue

Cons: A little hot but it seems fine. I haven't had to reboot it once since I received it in May 2012.

Overall Review: This solved my range problems. I have a detached garage that is located across the backyard about 30 yards from my house where the router is located. I use an Airport Express to stream my iTunes music to the garage without any problems now. It was very difficult to get it to work with other N routers but this one gives me full bars at 5ghz, 3 at 2.4ghz but I notice no difference in performance. Headache gone. No more music skipping.
