Asus Pundit P1-AH2 Barebone System

A nice, solid machine with a slim form factor and sleek looks. Capable of supporting Athlon X2 5400+ (at least) despite what the documentation claims. Mini jack, S/PDIF, gigabit ethernet, S-Video, DVI, VGA, firewire, card reader all on board - there...

There's nothing really "wrong" with the Pundit, but it does have several limitations (mainly due to form factor). Some full-height PCI cards will not fit without modification. Lying flat, the left side of the case ("bottom" if oriented vertically) is...

Tiny Computer. About Half as tall and half as thick as your "ordinary" computer

2 gb Ram Max

Have this setup with a Seagate 500gb sata, AM2 4200+ and 2GB of PNY. Quick little machine

Does not work with G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400). Needed to use round cables for ide connect to dvd for better cooling

Great office desktop setup. Purchased 5 at a time and each batch has worked without a problem. Great size form very solid build

PCI is a little tight but accept most any card. May have trouble with some TV cards

Nice looking case! Feels like good quality when you pick it up.(heavy) Installed CPU and RAM(AMD x2 4000+ and corsair 2 GB)I suggest a sata DVD burner along with a sata hard drive. IDE cable may restrict air flow since this case is so compact.Included...

No PC express although Newegg sells a pci video card that is directx 10 compatable for VISTA

This machine is compact, quiet (even with included heatsink/fan) and very well equipped for the money. All of the on board hardware shows up under Linux though I had to spend some time reading about the hda_intel sound driver. I have only used the...

Have had several of these RMA'd for what seems to be video chip overheating issues. Originally purchased one for private use that worked really well. Followed that up with an order for 8 for the office. RMA'd 2/8. Both of the RMAs exhibited the same...

Well priced barebones system. Great for HTPC on a budget. All components work great with Linux/Mythtv. I've used this case for 5 different Media Center PC's I've built all with great results. Two PCI slots for dual tuner cards, whole host of video...

Only two Cons to this case: 1- Optical audio out is concealed under front panel of case which is a major bummer because you always have to have the panel open. 2- There is only 1 3.5in drive bay for Hard Drive, luckily HD prices are dropping like...

Awesome design, heavy weight material, and quite. So quite I walked into my room and didn't even know my computer was running. Also has a lot of output makes great for a media center

Only 1 Harddrive, and 1 cd/dvd drive :(, No PCI Express

Quick and easy assembly, Very quiet, even with the included HS and fan

DVI does NOT work well with all HDTV's when using DVI-HDMI Converter. Problem is a hardware problem which cannot be fixed. Spent lots of time on nvidias forums and the only solution is to solder a resistor between a +5 voltage and DVI pin on the...

order the combo with the AMD 64 4600 [2.4ghz ; added the corsair 2gb memory pack and 20x dvd/dvd+/- and a 250gb wd drive. booted right up ; running xp pro ; great price
