Asus M2N68-AM SE2 Motherboardruns windows 7 without a hitch

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseIs light and thin skinned. PS quality is questionable, above average noise. SATA power leads, both on one cable, won't reach between bays unless you crowd drives in the center, or adapt another lead. Is still a decent case, not fancy just funtional. Front USB is nice, CPU fan air tunnel slick and the blue power LED ring a pleasent touch. Mine was missing standoff/screw hardware. I would buy again.

Asus M2N68-AM SE2 MotherboardWorked first startup. Bought it in a combo with an AMD 5800+ Duo Core. There is a simple setting that will overclock your processor for you up to 7% just by selecting it (i'm running at 3.21G). Great board.

Asus M2N68-AM SE2 MotherboardBuilt a budget rig from this mobo, no issues so far. Ubuntu 9.04, 2GB DDR2, 2.6Ghz Dual core. No issues with any drivers. Only includes one SATA cable so ensure that you have another if you plan to run all SATA hardware!

Asus M2N68-AM SE2 MotherboardGot this as a barebones kit, went together easy. Nice board if you don't require to many extras. Luckily, the people I built this for didn't!

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseI originally got this case as a last resort to keep my build below $1200, and it's actually a solid case. It's really flimsy on the side panels, but you won't be touching them all the time anyway. I painted it with black gloss paint, cut out a window, removed part of the front of the case, added blue LEDs, and it looks like a much more expensive case now.

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseGot my case in a low-end bare-bone package. For $40, it is a good value. Pros: include nice rounded edges to keep you from being GINSUed. The inside is well laid out and though the metal is thin, it is still rigid. Cons: The weight is a dead give-away that the 450W rating on the power supply is a stretch. My Antec 450W supply probably weights more than the entire case, but it cost 4 times more than this case/PS combo did. The case has plenty of room for drives and I would suggest keeping them low to keep the center of gravity low, else the case becomes a little top-heavy. Overall, A bargain case with good features, however, I wouldn't press the PS for a continuous 450 Watts of power.

Asus M2N68-AM SE2 MotherboardGreat Mobo and an easy install. The only things I wish it has was greater ram capacity and more sata heads, not really a problem for me just that I swallowed up my ide connections with two older Hd's and then only had two satas to support my larger hd and dvd drive.

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseIts not that flashy looking, but its a good case. Its probably like a pound at most. and when i put all the stuff in it, mobo, HD, DVD drive, Etc. it probably weighs like 5-6 pounds. The only disadvantage is that sometimes it can get knocked over easy, because all the weight is on the top, and there really isnt anything on the bottom, so, becareful walking by. It does scratch easy, it got scratched from the box when i took it out. Not badly, but like a scuff mark, and it barely touched the box. Overall, for the price, and it coming with a 450 Extreme Power supply its well worth it.

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseThis is an excellent case. I was extremely surprised at how light it was. It must be at least half the weight of my smaller mATX eMachines tower. I immediately removed the power supply and put in a ThermalTake 430W. The PS is of poor quality and isn't made for a SATA only build out; although it does come with a SATA power adapter. Even with the lower wattage, the TT PS produces much more amperage. I also liked at the how much room ISN'T wasted in this case. You can easily fit multiple HDs and CD/DVD drives. The blue light is aesthetically pleasing. My only real concern... The front panel is a real pain to remove and reinstall, yet its the only way to install a cooling fan for your hard disks. All in all, for the price, you can't go wrong. Buy this case.

Asus M2N68-AM SE2 MotherboardThe 1st board received had a defective IDE controller. The 2nd board received had a damaged component. Overall, the retail support was very pleasant to deal with and the exchange process was smooth. This board is decent for a budget system.

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseDon't listen to reviewers whining about the shortcomings of this case. They are comparing it to cases costing many times more. Best thing-- this case is LIGHT !. I can lift the whole computer (with Intel quad core, fans and all), with 2 fingers!! I like light and powerful computers. It looks very classic and sleek in design, no Light-up spiders or tacky dragons and other nonsense. Power supply was able to power my Intel 2.66GHz quad core, although you have to insert the 4 pin 12V (blk/yello) cable into a 6 or 8 pin 12v socket on the MOBO. No serious overclocking, but great for me. Yes, the metal is not thick, but you would NOT need a CPU case to withstand mechanical abuse. Any shock that would bend this case, more than likely will send the hard drive into the landfill. So you don't want any mechanical abuse on a CPU NO MATTER HOW HEAVY GAUGE THE METAL. The hardware supplied is nimble but reasonable given the price. And the main lid is on knurled thumb nuts, no screwdriver needed

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseWatch out for sharp edges!

Power Up Black ATX Mid-Tower CaseHad to call manufacturer to find out about power cables -- hint: they sell this power supply separately. For the record, it has 2 SATA power cables, which is good, but they're on the same cord (not so good). This means having to put the optical drive in one of the lower two 5.25" bays. I couldn't use the lowest one because it overlapped with the 20+4 power on the mATX motherboard I used. One other potential con: There's a 4-pin CPU power cable, but no other accessory power if your board uses the full 20+4 for the MB. Also, had to fish the front audio cable back through the board in order to reach the pins on my MB. Still, pretty good overall. I'm happy with it!

Asus M2N68-AM SE2 MotherboardI bought this motherboard to rebuild my desktop computer. This is a simple computer not used for gaming. I installed the motherboard and the drivers and no problems whatsoever. It is easy to install and set up. Just wish it allowed for a backup on the hard drive like my gigabyte motherboard did.
