Asus W5fe 120GB

Advantages: All the latest connections
Disadvantages: have not found any

...I Purchased this motherboard on 31/03/04. The installation was simple with no problems, I used the amd athlon 64 3200+ Processor, the Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 9 120Gb 7200rpm 8mb Cache ATA133 Hard disk, 350w power supply, the Sapphire Radeon 9600 AGP X8 256MB Video Card and the LG 8x DVD DUAL R/RW/RAM IDE BURNER drive. I would recommend this motherboard over all the others firstly because it is made by Asus which is a leading company with a lot of experience. Secondly they always give all the leads and connectors, screws etc needed to get you up and running. The software provided is very good and easy to install and use. I have build a large quantity of computers over the years using other cheaper motherboards like msi and have had problems and crashes etc. I hope this reveiw helps you.... Read review

However I have read reviews of both, and the Asus seemed to come with better software and was also said to have better overclocking abilities. This swung it for me. The Asus it was to be. This board has been better than expected; it is a lot more stable than my old one. It can also be overclocked a hell of a lot more.... Read review

Advantages: small light and reliable

...this asus laptop is a new range of laptops, as a well known fact they mad parts for the sony viao ange laptops so this means that their own range will be extremely reliable. i found i liked this model alot because it was in mid range of all the laptops asus provide so it gave a perfect amount of everything to a laptop, this is including speed, memory. i would like to say that this is a multimedia pc and gameplay and videos are excellent to watch on this, there is only one draw back the asus W range they are alot faster without too much more cost. the draw back that i found was when you overloaded the laptop with information it does slow down significantly, that does not happen with the W range of laptops. if this is you budget then this is your laptop, but if you can spare more go for the W range....
