Pros: Great advertising -all fluff

Cons: Lots of start up problems - try googling 790i problems and you will see why.

Summary: I recently bought this unit and a Q9300 Intel dual core quad chip. Corsair ddr3 (not cheap) RAM (4 gb) and a 8800gt XFX video card Upon starting up the machine,it would not POST (power on self test) kept getting code 80. Tried to contact manufacturer on their website (nightmare # 2). If you like aggravation try getting them to send you a "ticket" regarding what to do - no joy. What started out as a happy venture has turned out to be disappointment and an expensive pile of junk that does not even get to the setting BIUOS stage and no one seems to want to help. Save yourself some grief and a lot of money and stay away from this expensive junk. THis kind of business is a crime the unit has not been thoroughly tested and furthermore try to find a computer shop that is capable of setting up this newer stuff, Thats expensive as well.
