Sony Playstation 3 250GB Bundle w/Uncharted 3 GOTY and Dust 514 Voucher
Sony Playstation 3 250GB Bundle w/Uncharted 3 GOTY and Dust 514 Voucher

Pros: Quiet, like SUPER quiet. If the lights weren't on I wouldn't have known that the system was on. Runs really cool after 8ish hours of gameplay as opposed to my old PS3 Phat. IR thermometer read the hottest (bottom) area as 90 degree's Fahrenheit.

Cons: Not much really, I honestly don't know if I can set the system in vertical position so I'm stuck with in sitting horizontal for now. Aside from that I have no complaints, I guess the charger cord for the controller could be longer but that's just personal preference.

Overall Review: Bought it as a replacement for my PS3 Phat, compared to eachother I already prefer the Super Slim. It's quiet, fast and takes a 500gb harddrive replacement perfectly.

Really nice

G.SKILL Sniper Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-1866C9D-16GSR
G.SKILL Sniper Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-1866C9D-16GSR

Pros: Easy to set-up when you choose an XMP profile, came in pristine condition.

Cons: Nothing really, mine didn't come with a G.Skill sticker but my brothers did, made me have a sad :(

Overall Review: Was used to upgrade another set of G.Skill 8GB RAM, now my system doesn't complain about low memory when I'm running ALL THE THINGS!!!

IT'S SO SMALL!!

SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 250GB SATA III 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E250B/AM
SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 250GB SATA III 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E250B/AM

Pros: It's small, smaller than I thought it was, so I just plugged it in and left it in the bottom of my case. Install of the OS went FREAKISHLY fast, everything was setup perfectly fine, the only thing that took time was redirecting folders to my HDD instead of keeping them on the SSD.

Cons: Not a con on the SSD itself, so no eggs taken off. But it needs to come with screws, no SATA cable is fine, but it's a pain to find screws, hence leaving it on the bottom of my case >.<

This thing blows

Pros: I have this in a Haf xb Evo case as a top fan, currently have it exhausting but thinking of flipping it over to blow air over the mobo. The rubber thingies that came with it were easy to use, common sense goes a long way here.

Cons: Saddened that it doesn't come with a fan controller, only way to control the speed is to connect it to the motherboard, but I hate connecting non-cpu fans to the mobo cause there's the risk of it shorting out and taking the mobo with it.

Overall Review: It's a nice design and really good airflow, not gonna say I wanna buy another one, cause I have no room for it. But I will suggest it to others.

It's storage

WD Blue 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD10EZEX

Pros: Really, it's a 1TB HDD that I'm using to replace a 1yo Seagate drive that started doing the "click of death". Using this bad boy to store some anime and TOTALLY not using it to hide prawn.

Cons: The packaging it came in was so unique and weird that I played with it for several hours before even installing this HDD.

Overall Review: I plan on buying another one to replace an old 500GB HDD.

Pretty good

Pros: Installation was easy, CPU mount area has a lot of space for practically any size heatsink or waterblock. The other heatsinks are a nice welcome feature to bleed off more board heat, and the amount of fan pins are a blessing if you don't wanna clog your case up with molex adapters.

Cons: Just two things I've had a problem with so far. 1. The SATA plugs, horizontal? Really? Not really a problem, just a pain to plug them. 2. The reason why I took an egg off, the supplied mobo drivers are fine, but the Lan driver is HORRIBLE. It throttles WAY more than it should. I got around this by using a different driver (Qualcomm Atheros AR8161) because without this I'd get horrid speeds.

Overall Review: Very nice motherboard once you get passed the "Killer" lan drivers.

Slow

VERY slow shipping, ordered this on 11/21/13 and finally got here today (12/09/13). Word of advice would be, never order from sellers who use USPS.
