ASUS Vintage PE1

Great case with awesome airflow. Good price for what you get

The PSU could be better and the mobo could be better but for the price you can't beat it

Great start to a stable system. I found it to quite, smooth running and great value

the bios needs to be flashed at first boot. make a CDR with the files for bios flash and boot up press ALT-F2 and flash away - else it will seem to be DOA

Very fast and easy to assemble. All of the necessary cables were connected to the MB and in the proper place

Did not power up on initial assembly. It appeared to cycle "on" about every second or so

Easy installation, nice layout, everything as expected ; I upgraded my processor from a P4 505J 2.66 GHz 533 MHz FSB to a P4 650 3.4GHz proc, 800 MHz FSB. I am OCing at 5% (3.56 GHz), which seems to be the max this MB supports. I didn't know it the MB...

AGP video interface is outdated ; It seems others have had problems with firmware. I didn't because I initially installed a 505 proc, then upgraded firmware, then upgraded proc. Not very strong power supply, although supports my 6800. Not a whole lot...

Well worth the purchase if your on a budget...and looking to upgrade from an old machine

Case is a little cramped space wise inside

Very solid barebones at a very nice price. I've had it running mythtv and it's always on, feeding my TV while I use it at the same time as my general use Linux machine and never complains. The case is solid and looks good

None really, except it'd be nice it came easy to open by hand rather than needing a screwriver. But that's pretty trivial

Case looks very nice, and it's not huge! I felt it was also very solid, it didn't feel flimsy. It has a nice assortment of ports on the front. Barebone includes a floppy drive. For internet, email, home office, minor gamming, I think this is a cheap...

Not meant to be a power house machine. Only supports up to an Athlon 3700 processor. Poor documentation. I could not use Windows Media center 2005 on this machine. I had to install XP home addition. This is not a motherboard Asus sells seperately, I...

simple cheap system. you must upgrade the BIOS if your going to run any halfway decent proc. give it plenty of memory cause its a slow mobo

Good luck with the bios upgrade.better know what your doing. ASUS made this more complicated than it needed to be but it does work

There is no beating this barebone for a budget sytem ; I have not had a single system crash while using this PC for almost two months. For those who keep their PC running all the time it works great for that, as well. I have left this PC running for 7...

In terms of its functionality I have no cons, since it is working great. The only con, and I mean the only con I have to this point is the internal space, but unless you plan to install three or four HDD's it is fine

sleek case ; simple MB

The case and motherboard aren't exactly a perfect fit in that the main power for the MB is in the exact same spot where you would place the hard drive so I had difficulty placing the hard drive and the IDE cable, don't know how I would have placed a...
