Pros: Small card, low profile bracket. Full USB 3 speeds. Nice to have an internal connector too - used it for a card reader. Price is great for an add it card. CD install was simple and worked on first try (not my experience with the Orico 7 port card)

Cons: Needed a +5V power extension for larger case. No raw driver on CD

Overall Review: You need a molex +5V to power the card. I needed an extension to make reach mine in a full size case. Don't knock the company and rate low if you can't figure this out and claim a high tech capability. Yes an extension would be nice to put in the box, but for $13, you can't really expect that.

Pros: The price of the hardware, for a prebuilt system with warranty is / was very competitive. The case is a nice design and all the RGB lighting can be turned off if you don't like it (both in the OS and through a physical switch on the case. Packing was good, and even a little over zealous, as I had to cut out the video card protection spray foam because it was too tight to remove otherwise. I bought this to be a local AI / LLM system. With the 5060 Ti having 16GB VRAM, it's great for more powerful models without the super high pricing of commercial cards. 8B models run easily, and the few 12B models fit 100% on card as well.

Cons: My two biggest complaints were that the system isn't even configured properly out of the box and the customer service email was non-responsive. The unit came with a QC Checklist in the box. It looked like it had been filled out by a two year old - nothing was legible. Worse, most of the configuration items that were scribbled as complete were not. The XMP profile for the memory had not been set active. (this makes your RAM run at 4800MT instead of 6000). Update to Windows? Marked complete, most certainly not. That means just to get this machine performing at the advertised specs, I had to go recheck every setting that you expect to done in a prebuilt unit. Other configurations were wrong too - the front panel USB was set to legacy (2.0) instead of the 3.1. Even after changing that, I still don't have a functioning front USB3.1. Also, the RAM used in the machine is a very odd / poor timing configuration and older module. Impossible to find for expansion matches, so if you want more than the included 32GB RAM, expect to replace the entire set. This is where the customer service came in. Sent an email to their team about the RAM, got zero response. Not even a 'we don't know,' just nothing. It wasn't an RMA or warrantee request, but the lack of any response makes me hope I never have to use that team for something important.

Overall Review: Overall, the price to value for the unit made it a decent purchase. The lack of QC, even when they have the checklist in front of them doesn't give me much hope for a quality first experience. Complete lack of CS response means hope everything goes right without issues. Be prepared to do you own configuration out of the box just to get it to meet advertised performance spec. I was really considering giving this a two egg due to the lack of basic configuration, but settled on 3 since it actually worked. The whole point of buying a prefab unit was not to have to do all this myself.
