Most Favorable Review

Cheap and working

Omni Gear HDMI-2-HDMI 6 ft. Black HDMI to HDMI 2.0 Cable (4K Ultra HD) Male to Male
Omni Gear HDMI-2-HDMI 6 ft. Black HDMI to HDMI 2.0 Cable (4K Ultra HD) Male to Male

Pros: Cheap, it works, if it breaks it only cost me between $2 - $5 so replacement is not an issue. They get cheaper as you order more so I always get extra.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Don't pay more in store for cables.

Most Critical Review

Not for me

CM Storm QuickFire TK - Compact Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with CHERRY MX Blue Switches and Fully Backlit
CM Storm QuickFire TK - Compact Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with CHERRY MX Blue Switches and Fully Backlit

Pros: -Cherry MX blue switches. -Blue led back-lights. -Compact for travel. -Media keys.

Cons: -I did not like how small the keyboard was. It is a smaller scale than standard keyboard sizes. -I found that having to toggle between having a numpad and the arrows/delete, end type keys. -I bought this since it looked like it was a fully illuminated keyboard at all times. Certain keys do night light up unless you toggle them on or off. (numpad/arrow keys remain unlit unless you take num lock off) -Multimedia keys were disabling use of function keys in programs. I found irritating since it actually impaired my ability to get work done and play games with my full sets of keybinds.

Overall Review: This would be great for shoving in a backpack with a laptop. Too many cons for me to warrant keeping. I was in the market for a fully backlit mechanical keyboard and this looked like a better choice than it turned out to be.

Great for the price

Dell 24" 60 Hz TN HD LCD Monitor 5 ms 1920 x 1080 D-Sub, DVI-D E2414H

Pros: Cheap 24 inch LED monitors. You get a create value here.

Cons: I bought two and the stands are slightly different heights... this will drive me nuts but can be fixed.

Works great and was cheap

Pioneer VSX-521-K 5.1-Channel 3D Ready A/V Receiver
Pioneer VSX-521-K 5.1-Channel 3D Ready A/V Receiver

Pros: It was a very cheap solution for my bedroom's home theater. It does the job it needs to.

Cons: Does some goofy on and off things when plugged in with tv. When I run device > this receiver > tv via all hdmi the receiver will turn on and off with tv. When I run device > tv > reciever with the tv using its optical out to the receiver, the receiver stays on after the tv turns off.

Amazing

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU Cooler, 4 CDC Heatpipes, 120mm PWM Fan, Aluminum Fins for AMD Ryzen/Intel LGA1200/1151
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU Cooler, 4 CDC Heatpipes, 120mm PWM Fan, Aluminum Fins for AMD Ryzen/Intel LGA1200/1151

Pros: I recommend this for anyone who wants to overclock and is not ready for liquid cooling. - Super cheap! - Very effective - Easily upgradeable fans. I am using scythe gentle typhoons on mine. - Rotatable so you can control where the air vents to, took me a year to figure that one out.

Cons: Big, check you case for clearance before purchasing. The heat sink is not black so it stands out in my case =0

Overall Review: Best bang for your buck deal out there. I am using it on a i5 2500k (3.3ghz stock with 3.7 turbo, now clocked at 4.4ghz). I lost my exact values I had recorded but I went from roughly 40 (idle) - 65 (full load) degrees C at stock settings to 25 (idle) to 40 (full load) C plus was able to overlcock to 4.4ghz

Good and cheap
