Okay, you've read the other reviews. I've been building PC's and other platforms for 25 years. There's good and bad in this combo. First, it boots slow, even after flashing BIOS, after optimizing it with BootVis. A boot should be targeted at 30 secs; this mobo/quad core combo takes 4 minutes after optimization (BUT, the systray is loaded immediately). I have four gigs of DDR, 2-500 gig SATA's, the Maxtor 200 gig IDE that came with it, a Samsung DVD dual layer LightScribe DVD combo drive, a NVidea GEForce 8500 GT vidcard, extra case fans, yada, yada, yada. It boots LONG, but I leave it on (and my weather station works in the background, so it HAS to be on). It's a decent buy, but I think that Intel and Carl Fiorentino (Owner of Tiger) mated components that just didn't come up to spec. If not for the boot problem, it flies and smokes. I can live with that. |

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. |

The Value is rated a three due to a CPU/MB compatability issue.I bought this barbones system and It ran well. But when I attempted to call Intel for a support Issue I was informed that the DP35DPM MB and Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Processor was incompatible and in need of a BIOS flash to remedy and I was refused support. I obtained the Bios flash from the Intel website which corrupted the BIOS and left me without a computer awhile. Intel informed me that this MB/CPU combination should never have been sold without the BIOS Upgrade. But Tiger eventually made it right by sending me a different Intel MB to remedy this this issue. The product is good but not sold and shipped with this CPU/MB combination. |

I got this unit a week ago. It is very easy to assemble. Make sure you purchase one 120 mm fan for the back of the case (front comes mounted already) get also at least one more DDR2 chip to get full use of dual channel (I got 4 Gigs). If you are planning on using the Raid feature, make sure you have a USB floppy at the time of installing the OS since the motherboard does not have a floppy header. Also, purchase a heatsink and paste for the CPU. You will need a video card additionally and the SATA drives for the Raid. I did salvage many things from a crashed computer (such as DVD-Roms, video card and SATA drives) so I did not have to purchase those. If you are going to use the ATA hard drive that comes with it AND two DVD drives, you will need an ATA controller since the motherboard has only one header. Overall great stuff! |

This is a very nice looking system and has many quality, new technology components. Here are my pros and cons to the system.__________ Pros:
1. Heavy, metal case - high quality & assembly without tools
2. New technology Intel motherboard - lots of goodies
3. Cutting edge Intel quad processor
4. So quiet I had to double check it was on
_______________Cons:
1. Does not come with CPU fan
2. Does come with one 120 mm case fan but the info says is comes with zero...now I have a spare
3. Should come with SATA HD rather than IDE
4. Needs one more GB of RAM to effectively use the dual channel memory.

I generally do not take the time to write a review but appreciate reading a review before I purchase a product. This is an excellent value! I added 2 more GB of DDR 6400 for a total of 3 GB & a sparkle 512 MB SLI video card-which works great & is cheap. It can run most games at high detail but not the highest settings. I added XP Professional 64 BIT. Everything works. I have not found one piece of software that does not work. It is time to buy the 64 BIT computing system it is backwards compatible with 32 BIT but not 16 BIT software which would be prior to Win 95. This thing flys!!! |
