Most Favorable Review

Really nice GPU

HIS Radeon HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity H687F1G2M
HIS Radeon HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity H687F1G2M

Pros: Was a really nice card while she ran in my system, was able to play DnF and Deus Ex: Human Revolution on Max settings. Played Skyrim on High Settings on 1080p. was a nice card when I used it

Cons: After owing the card for about 3 years, the CPU fan started making loud noises and I had to replace it.... wish these fans had longevity

Most Critical Review

TIGHT

SAMA Sama-M2-TG Black USB3.0 Steel/ Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Gaming Computer Case w/Tempered Glass Panel and 4 x 120mm Autoflow Rainbow LED Fans (Pre-Installed)
SAMA Sama-M2-TG Black USB3.0 Steel/ Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Gaming Computer Case w/Tempered Glass Panel and 4 x 120mm Autoflow Rainbow LED Fans (Pre-Installed)

Pros: Nada.

Cons: Tight fit for most components Claims to have 3.5"HDD Bays but thats a LIE. Unable to fit a radiator on top if RAM sticks are too high and fitting on the front is a PAIN.

Overall Review: AVOID THIS CASE. If i could rate it 0 I would. I plan on returning it and getting a proper sized case that would accommodate my build easier

Love it!

Intel Core i5 6th Gen - Core i5-6600K 6M Skylake Quad-Core 3.5 GHz LGA 1151 91W BX80662I56600K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 530

Pros: Nice Processor Unlocked DDR4 Support Cooler than any other CPU I have ever ran! With a Cooler Master T4 I run at ~35C compared to my previous system at 48C using a Phenom II X6

Cons: Wish it had 6 cores instead of 4

Overall Review: What can I say that hasnt been said, I may have lost 2 CPU Cores using this but it is a far cry from what I had with AMD

Nice Case With Some quirks

HEC Blitz Black Steel Edition ATX Mid Tower Computer Chassis Gaming Case w/ Front Blue LED 120mm Fan & Top 120mm Fan
HEC Blitz Black Steel Edition ATX Mid Tower Computer Chassis Gaming Case w/ Front Blue LED 120mm Fan & Top 120mm Fan

Pros: Black color, PSU Mounting on the bottom of the case, and the vast number of 5.25" drive slots that can be used for optical drives!

Cons: The brezel tends to be a bit flimsy. I brushed the side of it with my foot and it came off. Also, the front headphone, audio jacks, USB ports, and eSATA port are not working on the one I bought , it might be a connection error.

Overall Review: I really like the case, and if everything worked, I would like it even more. System specs of the build I used with this case: Motherboard: MSI PSU: Corsair Enthusiast TX750V2 RAM: G.Skill RIPJAWS DDR3 1066 4GB x2 Video Card: HIS Radeon HD 6870 CPU: Phenom II X6 1090T Black Ed. HDD: WD Caviar Green 2TB OS: Win7 Ultimate 64 bit

Worthless

Pros: 2 TB If it were to work!

Cons: It did not work for me! Tried to install it on my new rig and the motherboard does not Recognize it.

Overall Review: This would be so nice to use if it were to work! Sadly, I have to return it and buy a WD Caviar Blue/Back, which are more reliable and usable.
