Pros: Works with the Sapphire Radeon HD3650 AGP card. keeps the card idling at 38C. amazing thermal contact.

Cons: needed slight tension modification to improve contact. place the rubber feeting that are supposed to go on the other side of the standoffs for the board on the screw side, and screw the springloaded screws on those. it'll tighten the tension just right.

Overall Review: Bought this originally for my X850XT, which it worked with. Put it immediately on the HD3650 AGP card as soon as I received it, new thermal paste and everything. Ceramique 2 works well in my own opinion but continue to use your favorite thermal compound in place of the liquid-bird-droppings-esque compound this product comes with. Other than the sliiiiight modification to the spring screw tension, the heatsink does the job better than the stock heatsink in both situations. Be sure to use a pair of pliers to tighten the standoffs just in case, but don't tighten them too much. and do yourself a favor: run it at full standard 12v. it's quiet enough it doesn't need a fan controller.

Pros: I've installed two of these in two different clients' computers so far in new builds. Both were looking for something to drive lower-resolution monitors (1920x1080 and below) for some online MMOs and other assorted games. Both cards have performed amazingly well and haven't needed to be touched at all for any sort of thing whatsoever. the heatpipes help keep this sucker cooler than the underside of your pillow and it's indeed a perfect design for a low-power GPU. I've not heard one instance from either client of the GPU overheating.

Cons: Can't do 4K without using both HDMI ports, if I"m not mistaken? and even then, 4K is limited to 25Hz. not necessarily the best, but if you have the money to waste on 4K monitors, you have the money to waste on power-hungry cards like the current line of AMD Radeon R series cards or the recently released GTX900 series of cards...

Overall Review: I'm going to be getting one of these cards come Christmas if I can help it. it's going to be going in a bit of an older system I have (Precision T3400/Xeon X3320/8GB/lotsa hard drives/other misc cards) and I need a card that can handle my basic needs while using very small amounts of power and being overspec for said needs. This way, I CAN run games if I so choose to. All in all, this is a COMPLETE AWESOME BUY and you should consider it. I would recommend getting some RAMsinks for the GDDR5 chips onboard, which can be had from a few companies including Zalman for relatively cheap, or very cheap if you check that-one-auction-site and get a 50Pk out of China. dab of thermal compound in the middle and superglue on the edge of the chip, add a sink, press it on, hold for a minute, let sit for 10 minutes afterward. Done.

Pros: Follow-up - Drive is still working great! Still quiet-- have to listen closely to tell if it's working or not. No bad sectors or anything like that yet. Windows is still very fast working off of this.

Cons: didn't come with a free box of pop-tarts?

Overall Review: Within the last couple months, Newegg added back some of the 2.5" Spinpoints again. Regardless, they're a dying breed. Seagate is now the default branding on these Seamsungates, and the name change alone is reason for worry about the stability of stock at any time. I will admit, for the price, this is a GREAT upgrade for any laptop or even a desktop system if so need be. These would be great cheap high capacity drives for those 4 or 6-slot 5.25" bay coolers. just make sure the one you use has fans. as I reviewed two months ago, I put this into a Gateway E-265M to replace a 160GB hard drive which is now in another laptop. I said I was going to be downgrading to a 320GB WD Black, but that did not happen. said drive was needed elsewhere. I'm honestly glad I didn't downgrade to the 320. I find myself not worrying about disk space while using that laptop anymore. the SMART readout on the drive is still good, and I've had no problems yet with anything. This is my only laptop without an accelerometer for hard drive protection, so I'm amazed the drive is lasting as long as it has, even. As long as you don't abuse the laptop you put any hard drive in, they tend to last longer anyways. handling the drive carefully once out of the package also helps. I'm going to be buying another one of these to replace the dying Hitachi drive in a late 2009 Mac Mini-- I intend to see a big performance increase, and of course, room to put a few VMs with room left to spare for expansion.

Pros: This case has plenty of room for a fullsize ATX motherboard, and more than enough room for larger graphics cards. 7 places to mount fans made my day!

Cons: hard drive retention rails do not do a good job of keeping the drive stable. I am able to wiggle the drive up and down once locked in. This matters not as with a single screw, it's mounted in there real good. I had to do this for all 5 of my hard drives. Not taking off an egg because the option to do such is there. Also, the front only fits 120mm fans that are SQUARE. the round ones (i.e. Antec TrueQuiet 120) do not fit in the front. This made finding quiet fans to place up front very hard.

Overall Review: This is a great case for any kind of board and larger cards. plenty of places to hide cables and tie cables to, and the thing looks great overall. I was able to fit a Tyan K8WE S2877 in mine with two Opteron 285's.

Pros: - Well-built - PWM - QUIET! WOW!

Cons: Doesn't come in Neon Yellow.

Overall Review: I bought two of these to use for exhaust on the top of my case as supplemental cooling for two Opteron 285 CPUs. Once attached and plugged in, the only thing you can hear is the airflow. they're THAT quiet. I'll review again in some time once they've had some hours put on them. but for now, they do the job EXTREMELY well.

Pros: Fast. performs better than the Scorpio Black 320 that was in my X120e, and does this with half the cache (8MB compared to the 320's 16MB). Quiet. Fits in my X120e like a glove. drive install/warranty/FAQ card in the antistatic bag had some rather funny translated wording and made me chuckle. after two days, health-defining SMART readouts haven't changed. and the drive is still running strong. Only time will tell what sort of mess I have or have not gotten myself into.

Cons: Only just fits like a glove in my X120e. this hard drive is a little thicker than most of the offerings out there at the moment. ST750LMO is now displayed before the original Samsung Model in the device identifier and doesn't get picked up as a Samsung disk anymore because of this added identifier. Can faintly hear the head park when the inbuilt accelerometer paired with Tpshocks.exe (on most Lenovo/IBM laptops) does its job. so not totally quiet, but since you have to really listen to pick up on it, no eggs taken off.

Overall Review: I bought this mainly for the space. I've had no problems in the past with Samsung drives before they became "Samsungate", so I made the purchase. the branding is not the same as in the description. no Samsung logo to be seen. instead, Seagate logo. People seem to have problems with this hard drive over a short period of time, and I even was told by tech-savvy friends in higher places than I not to get this drive. but I bit the bullet anyways, and it's working fine, for now. Again note that this hard drive is a bit thicker than most. make sure your laptop has enough clearance to potentially support this drive. Otherwise you may be rubbing the top against something causing vibration or bending, ending in the HDD's untimely demise. I work in IT and do the same thing I do every day with this one: clone the stock 320GB's partitions to the 750GB and resize the main if needed. I used Clonezilla which worked well. I had to place the drive in the laptop before cloning would work, though
