Simply wow

SAMSUNG LD190N (Lapfit) High Glossy Black 18.5" 5ms  Widescreen LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 DC 20000:1(1000:1)
SAMSUNG LD190N (Lapfit) High Glossy Black 18.5" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 DC 20000:1(1000:1)

Pros: Slim Lightweight Vivid Excellent resolution! Ease of use! Very Aesthetically pleasing! 360 friendly!

Cons: Only thing is i'd have to say would be the rear stand is limited in range but isn't too bad. It's definitely more portable because of it. So it's not entirely a con.

Overall Review: I'm a avid Xbox 360 LAN gamer and travel with gear a lot. I needed a really nice monitor to replace the Viewsonic VE710s i've been using for about 5+ years now. Originally it was a PC monitor that turned into my LAN monitor since it was able to fold the base (Have never seen any other monitor like it!) and well i FINALLY found this monitor to replace it and i'm hoping it'll last me 5+ years just like my viewsonic. The viewsonic is STILL alive it's just not as vivid as i want it. It's being used as a guest monitor now :) So if you ever want a reliable monitor. Definitely get a viewsonic (Don't buy their TV's...) Also in the 360 it has the resolution of this monitor in the display menu!! VERY happy about that!!!

Excellent LAN speakers

Cyber Acoustics Cyber Acoustics CA2016 2-Piece USB Powered Computer Speaker System (Black) CA-2016wb 3 Watts 2.0 USB Amplified Computer Speaker System
Cyber Acoustics Cyber Acoustics CA2016 2-Piece USB Powered Computer Speaker System (Black) CA-2016wb 3 Watts 2.0 USB Amplified Computer Speaker System

Pros: Portable in size USB Powered 3.5mm Audio jack

Cons: All wires are permanently connected to the speakers. Not a big deal. Not really any bass but what can you expect for $10 speakers?

Overall Review: As a avid Xbox 360 LAN player i travel with 360's and use VGA for monitors and portable speakers that need to have decent volume for LAN's. These work well! USB powered is the current favorite for that since the 360 has USB so removes the need for even more power strips (Huge problem at LANs)

Pros: Very good quality for the price

Cons: Occasional Duds but i was once reimbursed by memorex with a large spindle. Very nice support!

Overall Review: These are the best bang for your buck.

Wow it's so tiny!

ASUS WL-330gE Wireless Router IEEE802.11g/b/d, IEEE802.3/3u/IEEE802.1X, WPA/WMM/IPv4/IPv6
ASUS WL-330gE Wireless Router IEEE802.11g/b/d, IEEE802.3/3u/IEEE802.1X, WPA/WMM/IPv4/IPv6

Pros: This thing is quite the portable little unit i had expected atleast a size of a gaming controller but it's like a little credit card(just a little thicker) USB powered is a MAJOR plus! (good for 360!) Little Ethernet cord (Good for 360 as well!) Travel Case is really nice quality! and fits everything nice and snug. Price was good compared to many others!

Cons: Software was tad on the meh side for trying to get it to connect to my wireless as adapter mode because i have a WEP but all i needed to do was make sure it was on AUTO IP and click repair on my LAN connection so it refreshed everything and boom. Worked.

Overall Review: Software could've been a bit simpler but it's got plenty of advanced settings for me to play with so definitely happy about that so it's not a con nor a pro. It's right inbetween. It works. As for everything else. Many pros!

Great mouse and board combo!

Logitech EasyCall Black 104 Normal Keys Wireless Standard Desktop Keyboard, Mouse, Speakerphone & Stereo Headset Kit
Logitech EasyCall Black 104 Normal Keys Wireless Standard Desktop Keyboard, Mouse, Speakerphone & Stereo Headset Kit

Pros: Well it's got everything i've wanted when i was looking to buy a keyboard and a mouse to replace my standard setup which broke. I wanted Wireless, a good mouse that could handle gaming, and a good comfortable keyboard with multimedia for music. Well this has it all! And i got it for $30 at Best buy on clearance :) Strong signal and very nice feeling.

Cons: Did encounter that static problem people were talking about but only during gaming when a person used a headset. I disabled voice in game and problem solved. I never do talk during gaming anyway. I dont feel like tweaking the driver set up to get it to work for me.

Overall Review: If you have this on clearance at your local best buy. GET IT! It's worth more then $30 for sure! The mouse alone is amazing for gaming! All the buttons work and since it's a laser mouse with full sensitivity settings it makes to be a high end gaming mouse! The keyboard is perfect for kicking back and relaxing. You won't regret this combo!

Beautiful absolutely beautiful

NZXT NEMESIS ELITE BLK Black 1.0 mm ALUMINUM ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 400 WATT PS2 ATX 12V Power Supply
NZXT NEMESIS ELITE BLK Black 1.0 mm ALUMINUM ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 400 WATT PS2 ATX 12V Power Supply

Pros: Well i've had this case for a little over a year now and wow I still love this thing so much. I'll clear up anybody's question's about this case to help you buy this beauty. It's not huge but it has so much space inside for anything you can think of with room to spare. 3 120mm fan's with blue led's that are not too loud and work amazing! Best Air flow i've ever seen. My hand's actually get cold inside my case! The front look's awesome and the case is very easy to clean. All of the fan's are removable and replaceable. The front comes off for cleaning extremely easy but don't pull it off too fast because it has wires attached. The window looks amazing on the side to see your rig. Perfect case no doubt about it. The 400 watt power supply lasted a year no problem until i upgraded it to a 500 watt ultra x connect. Now that 400 saved a dell dimension because those machines have bad PSU's. I suggest buying this case or the regualr nemesis without the LCD screen. Either or.

Cons: The LCD screen on top is nice at first but doesn't work or is inaccurate. Doesnt matter though very uneccessary. and I wish the door was a little more solid. It's durable but feels like it could break if it took a hit. Handle with care obviously.

Overall Review: Despite it's size this case is perfect for LAN's. It's extremely light! All you need is a luggage case or a carrying strap and your good to go. Go and buy one of these cases! especially from newegg too!
