Advantages: a very fast card that is capable of runnig anyhting in the current gaming market Disadvantages: the price and driver problems
...card i really cant see why you would need it for a few years as this card manages to do all the things needed as of today. another good point you can have this as SLI thats quad SLI... 2gb of graphics in hd if you have the monitor, no game around at this time even needs that. and under my vista sysytem analisis i get 5.9 in the graphics section that is very high end card at the time vista was first made. if you cant afford to upgrade to a dx10 gaming rig have this card trust me it is compleatly worth it ever game i have never goes below 60fps and you wont need to upgrade for some time as i am a huge gamer and nail anything spec wise in the market today.....

A modders dream!!! Review ofHiper Type-R HPU-4B580 - power supply - 580 Wattby

Advantages: Modular design, LED fans for case modding Disadvantages: Thin aluminium plate can distort
...to the PS.
For those with SLI, there is a 2x4 pin to 1x6pin PCI-E adaptor. Basically install the cables required leave the rest out.
Fitted into a case with side window, it looks clean, providing a nice blue glow in the top of the machine, also with the cables sleeved and routed neatly, it allows for a decent air flow.
Performance is what you would expect from a £60 power supply. Stable, with very little in the way of fluctuation from the preset voltages even under full load (12v running at 12.12v), even running 4 drives, 7 fans, and a multitude of LEDs.
So there you have it, apart from the small gripe (Which is really down to my case), an outstanding modders power supply, at a pretty reasonable price....

Advantages: Lots of ports/features, price. Disadvantages: Slow to pass bois post
...I brought this from ebuyer a few months back, for my new system build. I wanted a motherboard which had plenty of features/ports etc, without braking the bank, and this does just that. With 4 USB port, 7.1 surround sound audio card, 4 rear USB ports + 2 headers, Printer Port, and even 2 PCI-E 16X for SLi and 2 PCI-E and 2 PCI card slots, which is a good use of the slots available, with the PCI-E sure to be used more in the future, with it's smaller and faster slot.
So, after unpacking, I found there to be a lot of accessories with this board, keeping up to ASUS's standards. I applied the headers to the case and installed the motherboard easy enough, connected everything up etc. and it was up and running. After setting itself up, I was able to install the operating system. The board had no problem installing the Sata hard drive and disc...

Hi, The model here, the ASUS M2N-E has proved itself over the last year. I built several systems using this motherboard and so far it has been well up to ASUS' usual standard and for me it is the natural successor to my previous one (A8N-E). My comments more

So, off I went to my usual websites, and spotted this. It seemed to have reasonable reviews, so i purchased one not thinking... more
