Western Digital WD5000AAKS Caviar Blue Hard Drive Ordered with a Ultra enclosure, and the drive was recognized and initialized by windows. However, it simply did not work after that. When trying to format the drive, Windows didn't recognize it anymore and that's when I realized it had problems. Made clicking sounds (sign of damaged head), so I just ordered a replacement.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 stock cooler is quiet, and is keeping the processor at 37C (stock fan, stock cooler, stock thermal pads, ambient room temp 20C, one rear 80mm case fan.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 For the price it can not be beat. I went with a Duo since my main concern is gaming. Thus speed is more important than a quad core as I do not know of any game that takes advantage of 4 cores or one that is beign developed with that capability. NOt sure how well the fan woudl install as I use water cooling. The cpu snapped in with autority and works like a charm. The price was excellent. I plan on using this cpu till the prices drop on the i7's and I move up to them

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I originally was after an Asus, but they were all sold out on black friday. Built this into a new computer last week with corsair 4GB Ram and Intel duo E5200 CPU. Easy to assembly and works well. Bios seems solid. Onboard video and sound are adequate. Had trouble booting new hard drive with Win98 and winXP. Ordered Win7 OEM and it took off like a rocket. Plenty of room for future expansion. The only downside I see is no firewire.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 Be careful buying this processor if you want to run virtual machines with WS08 or Windows 7 as the host server. WS08 hyper-v and Windows 7 Virtual PC will not install.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 Have been using this processor for a couple weeks and it is super fast - everything loads quickly and without any problems.

Western Digital WD5000AAKS Caviar Blue Hard Drive I liked the price. I liked the capacity. BUT---- My windows experience index is 5.9 due to this disk drive. Still pretty fast but with all my other numbers being in the 7's it is a little disappointing. Not sure what I expected.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Nice board, better suited for sata drives

Ultra 2048MB PC5400 DDR2 667MHz Memory Great ram

Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard No problem installing board. I purchased this with an Intel 9550 quad cpu, has run with no problems for 6 weeks. The only annoying thing is a message from windows that the software is making changes to the computer every time I boot.

Ultra 2048MB PC5400 DDR2 667MHz Memory Bought this for a rebuild I was doing with a MCP6P-M2 mother board. Works just great. No problems with install or the computer accepting it.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I had NO problems with getting Mythbuntu up and running on this MB. Quality looks good and as I said everything just worked. And with an E7500 CPU it really screams. Not problems at all with HD even without extra video card - but since I wanted to record two channels simultaneously besides viewing, I bought a Galaxy 9600GT which mates nicely with the MB and does the job admirably.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I was looking to upgrade an old P4 class box due to bios issues and I found that this board had waht I wanted at the right price. The only glitch I have found so far is that when you begin to add a lot of USB devices it tends to hang during the POST. I just disconnected one USB device from the port then it boots very fast. This issue may not be a board issues but something I did not do in the bios setup. Otherwise nice board.

Ultra 2048MB PC5400 DDR2 667MHz Memory Came with my barebone kit, no problem working with Window 7. I plan to add another 2Gb RAM, will buy from the same manufacture to assure 100% compatibility

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Nothing fancy. But it works great! I've bought two of them in the last few months and they do their job well! The board makes it relatively simple to overclock stuff, which is good. But it only has one IDE connection, which is bad if you have older parts. Also, the RAM used with this board is kind of hard to find. Overall, good board with good price!

Comment:
Ultra 2048MB PC5400 DDR2 667MHz Memory I bought two, one was bad. After changing motherboards and spending gobs more time than I should trying to get the barebones kit this came with to work, I finally determined one was bad. I returned it, got a replacement and now things are good.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Well I got this to build a nice computer for my daughter for XMAS but the board was damaged at processor slot. I shipped back and haven't got replacement but it's on the way. I can't wait to see her surprise this will be a pretty nice computer and she has no idea it's coming
