Apex SK-503 Black Mid-T CaseI had ordered six cases for work and all of them had bad power supplies. Some were DOA and others died after turning it ON once. If you use Micro ATX board, the wires from the front panel (power, LED, reset) do not reach the mother board, I had to punch out 3.5 inch plate and then it was a tight fit. With ATX board the harddisk interferes with the SATA connectors. This retailer replaced the power supplies with Diablotech 350Watt PS and they are very good.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 You don't hear many people crowing about the duos with everyone throwing quads in their builds, but these puppies have outstanding performance and offer a significant savings over more recent offerings. For the silent majority, a smart buy.

Apex SK-503 Black Mid-T Case As others mentioned you don't want to be rough with this unit while building as the metal is thin and will bend. But how much does a desktop get move around when done.... One GOTCHA on the particular unit I received to watch out for. The wires for the power switch were labled as the LED lights and vice versa. I almost did a return until I realized this as I could not power the unit at all. Once I switched the wires to their correct spot on the motherboard all was well.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Gigabit tech support was helpful. Don't forget the 4-prong power supply plug for the mother board. Once I corrected my mistake, it took off without a hitch.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard i ordered this as part of a bundle. first mobo i got was defective. second one wouldn't completely seat the processor. even when the cpu fan was tightly secure the processor wasn'tt. gigabyte told me there was no way to fix this so i switched to an intel mobo. seemed more like a bad product than bad luck

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 this processor is very fast. plenty fast for everything I do including online games like WOW and BF42 and also some recording software. With all those things the stock fan keeps the cpu very cool, right now its at 27c and when I'm playing games its around 35c. With this price it's a HUGE deal!

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I didn't read the specs close enough and was surprised that it had only one IDE connector on the board. Otherwise, I am well satisfied.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Barebone I got this barebones to replace a just dead system and love it. I got the packages in two and a half days and spent several enjoyable hours putting it together. The processor is blazing, the memory cooks and the motherboard is east to install. It handled everything I needed from my old machine and the new 1 TB SATA drive as well. Excellent value...

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Recently assembled this mainboard as part of a kit and quite satisfied with performance. There was a slight confusion with the SATA,IDE bridging protocols but this is not out of line with other chipsets and manufacturers. The fabrication quality is impeccable in true G-B fashion. Excellent value for the dollar.
