Consumer review (newegg.com)

Well made. Very respectable performance for the price, but you are better off with the 939 version

This is a decent, well made, easy to build system with an Intel chipset at a good price, which is a big plus for many people. It is quite small as well, but it is 915, which is dated, and single core capable only. If you want to build an easy, very...

If you like AMD, the Vintage-AH1 AMD Socket 939 has the same form factor and is a much better machine. It is dual-core capable (though dual core 939s are not to be found everywhere), better onboard graphics (ATI), better sound, 2 extra USB ports on the...

simple

excellent basic computing/office computer - no ide hdd with dual optical drives; requires sata hdd - replaced case fan with antec_tricool, very quiet w. enough cooling - 3 systems worked great with: pentium p4 630/celeron d 360 corsair ddr pc3200 1 gb...

simple, compact design ; very easy to put together ; sata cable included

case fan is super loud, obnoxious ; unsightly gap between dual optical drives

Wonderful!

These barebones rock! They worked perfectly out of the box, and were soooo fast to set up with the motherboard and cables all pre-installed

Good Business PC

I figure barebone systems in one of two ways: a budget PC or a small cube pc (aka shuttle/aopen, etc). In my experience, if you're a gamer, purchase a seperate MOBO WITHOUT VIDEO, and add whatever card you wish. This way there are no issues. I...

Easy setup, connections for IDE or SATA, enough scalability for most users, 800MHz FSB, Hyper Threading, Dual Channel RAM, good airflow in case - even with just the single rear fan - works with WinXP Pro 64x (used P4 630) (idle at 42c with stock HSF -...

Included "Probe" (the bundled system monitoring software) won't read case fan RPM since there is nowhere for the Control line to plug into - no video control options in BIOS ; You need to remove the front panel to remove the blanks for 5.25 and the 3.5...

stay away from ASUS

This would be a zero star review if they allowed it. First of all, this system will not recognize an AGP graphics card. At first, I was trying an ATI-based card. After jacking with it for several days, reviews began popping up here and elsewhere that...

good

The board has nice options. Mine came with an issue. I purchased an agp (9600 xt) card thinking that the specifications that were listed was a mistake stating that it can take pci express and agp. But now the board doesn't come with the option to...
