Great gaming CPU

Intel Core i5-3350P - Core i5 3rd Gen Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.1GHz (3.3GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 69W Desktop Processor - BX80637i53350P

Pros: Perfect CPU for gaming. Will run any game on highest settings (as long as your GPU can as well). No cr@ppy integrated graphics provides for higher clock rates. Yippeee!

Cons: No Hyper Threading, but you know that when you buy it.

Overall Review: You can't run your games and Open Broadcaster Software at the same time due to not having hyper threading. If you are streaming or recording your gameplay, get one that has 8 threads instead of 4. If you are just gaming, this CPU beats all price/performance wise.

Terrible Equipment

TRENDnet TEW-811DRU AC1200 Dual Band Wireless Router- 4 Gigabit port, Broadcom Chipset, DD-WRT Open Source support
TRENDnet TEW-811DRU AC1200 Dual Band Wireless Router- 4 Gigabit port, Broadcom Chipset, DD-WRT Open Source support

Pros: Wireless speeds are fast

Cons: I bought two of these routers when they were on sale for 2/40$. The first one gave me great wireless speeds, but a maximum of like 28kb on the ethernet ports. Updating firmware did absolutely nothing for it. The second one gave me great wireless speeds, and also fantastic ethernet speeds. However, you have to reset the router at least once per day. Updating firmware also does nothing for this. These routers are absolute junk, and I will never buy another TrendNet router or modem.

Overall Review: I now see why these were $20 a piece for a supposed $80 router.

Pros: Amazing quality, have three of these setup in 5760x1080 resolution and I absolutely love them! Got the refurbished ones and they work like brand new.

Cons: None whatsoever.

Overall Review: If I could have afforded it I would have gotten 6 of these!
