MSI WindBox 6667BB-004US Barebones-PC Kit

Small Case ; Vertical Profile ; Low Power Consumption ; Runs Cool ; Inexpensive

No Network Boot ; Hardware installation requires total deconstruction ; Soft plastic exterior

One aspect of presentation that may have been overlooked is the marketing of the Wind Box platform. MSI has a huge range of "specialty" computing products, though they don't call them such. From barebones to all-in-one systems they cover a wide variety...

Built well. Trivial to get the side cover back on the first time if you do not read the directions. Other than that, the thing runs really cool even with a hard drive in it. Allows for PXE booting too. AND a hidden feature I found when looking for the...

The onboard ATi graphics is completely useless. I have tried every OS and every driver. Windows XP / 7, Ubuntu all 32 and 64bit, latest versions drivers (proprietary driver for ubuntu), even tried to Omega alternative driver ; DXVA in windows DOES NOT...

small ; quiet ; inexpensive ; perfect htpc

none so far

Had a lot of great features on paper, Small, Quiet, IR, Slot for Wireless etc

Wow I bought this for a HTPC. And boy did it disappoint. After doing alot of research I decided on it over an ION based system. The performance was terrible. All I wanted was 720p network playback. The only way to get it was through WMP and by buying...

Low cost ; Low Power ; 4 Months always on not had a single issue ; SUPRISED by gaming performance

No new cons outside of what was listed on page 1

Still works fine. Figured out ATI Catalyst problem. Automatic windows update was installing the newer driver which would kill the video leaving just the audio. Changed update to notify only and all is good. Just unclick the ATI update in the windows...

Just not quite enough gut's to run Hulu, though the medium setting is pretty good. I can live with it for awhile, though I find myself looking for full power media center PC deals. I mainly want one that's small, quiet and cheap, and there hasn't been...

Great specs with low power for a small price

I can't get audio to work over HDMI in linux. I don't know how p4 acomplished it with the PPA drivers. No matter what I do in the xorg.conf it never displays anything. I've tried tweaking the monitor settings to match what the xorg log shows me my TV...

Price, size, case access. It runs quiet, has a small form factor, and is running great so far

Memory socket is on underside of motherboard. Yeah, that's my only con. It took some looking through MSI's documentation on their website before I could find that fact, but once I did, everything came into place

Small, quiet, inexpensive. Does pretty much what I want, which is Windows 7 media center and online video. Media center is the primary usage. With a 750 gig hard drive and two gig of RAM, media center is great. Live TV works well, recording is super. I...

When I was first doing the build, I used the new catalyst from the ATI website. Media center video wouldn't work at ll, but I had audio. After cursing loudly and futzing around a bunch, I tried the catalyst from the driver CD and all was wel for a...

Small and excellent price point for my requirements (driving video message boards on a factory floor). Silent. VESA mountable. I like them enough that I have ordered 7 additional units that will be used in two different factories for the message boards

RAM install requires entirely disassembling the case and removing the motherboard. Directions/Manual are useless for the system-builder, seem geared for someone buying the machine from a system-builder instead. MSI branded wireless card is totally MIA,...
