Intel DP35DPM Socket 775 Barebone Kit - Intel Q6600 2.40GHz OEM CPU, 200GB HDD OEM, 1GB DDR2 PC5400, ATX Mid-Tower Case, 500 Watt Power SupplyItem#: I69-2148 A

Overall, very pleased. A couple things to note. The hard drive is not SATA. The MB has only 1 ATA/IDE connector, so if you are installing an older CD/DVD drive, you have to chain it to the hard drive...but the hard drive doesn't have the brackets needed to install it in the 5.25'' bay leaving you screwed. I ended up buying a SATA HD. I also added an NVIDIA 7600 series card with 512ram and 2 more 1 gig sticks of memory. Vista is showing a performance rating of 4.8 with this. The case is awesome and the fan is quiet. I bought a rear case fan and the Ultra X-Wind CPU Fan. I had to remove some fins for it to clear the PS and the MB heat sink. You can barely hear it running!

I bought this kit to build for a friend he wanted cutting edge on a budget, and that’s what this system is. In additions to the kit I bought a SATA HD and SATA DVD rom and SATA DVD burner. I also bought an additional gig of ram. This system flys. I was able to install windows XP pro in just a matter of about 15 minutes. Very fast. If you opt not to install a floppy drive, you can use nlite to build in the raid controller driver.(I did). Overall I would highly recommend this setup.

This arrived about a week ago, installed the parts, put in a dvd drive, added a cooler master L3 for the cpu and put the os disk in. Everything was great, everything worked perfectly except for the ethernet port on the motherboard, luckily, I had a spare pci ethernet card and put that in, internet works great, got a xfx 640mb gts extreme and this thing hauls, it has a ton of power, Highly recommended if you want an affordable system that is extremely powerful. Make sure you get a quiet cpu fan as I did and you can barely tell that its on, the case looks sweet and the blue power light looks cool, overall, great buy! got here in 3 days, great product.

Bought the system bundle, added a Dvd drive some fans and a video card. It works perfectly. Upgraded a few things on it since they were affecting performance. The bundle comes with instructions for building your system, and drivers cd. Installation of Operating system was easy too. You simply turn on the computer, slip the OS disc (Vista or what have u) right before you confirm installation click on drivers for hdd (if using sata harddrive)it will recognize hdd; pop the OS cd back in and then install OS. After install of OS, pop in the drivers cd again and install drivers for MoBo. My Computer specs: -500gb Western Digital sata hdd -Samsung sata DVD drive -EVGA Geforce 8800 Ultra Superclocked Video card -ZEROtherm CPU cooler (comes with pretty lights) -2x2gb OCZ 800/ddr2 memory cards -Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit (The 8800 ultra was a little tight but did fit nevertheless[not bad for a midtower])

First of all when i got this they sent the wrong ram, Then Windows wouldn't install, intell said to flash the bios, which I did and luckily it survived a flash, Windows still didn't install, Ended up putting it in single processor mode and turning down the ram as low as it could go, then windows finally installed. Overall it works good but the BS and the fact the MB wasn't updated in the bios makes me wish I'd ordered it piece by peice with a better MB and PSU.
