sweet buy
Pros: Easy to install. It looked hard at first untill I read how to install. total time to install was around 15 mins with people bugging me :/
Cons: Dont get this if you have a small tower. I have the Antec 900
Overall Review: I have the Antec 900 case with an additional 120mm fan on the side. It clears the fan with about 2mm's
Plz don't buy
Pros: On paper this laptop is a monster.
Cons: Basically everything. It overheats. Burns my thumb because it has the WORST cooling design I have ever seen in a "gaming" laptop. I use a gaming mouse so the exhaust exits to the right of the machine right where your hand would rest on the mouse. You can't use a track pad for gaming, sorry you just can't.
Overall Review: I can keep going on how bad this thing really is. I don't want to make a super long review. It will surf the heck out of the internet though. Please Toshiba, don't make anymore of these. I would love to trade this in for a full money return on a newer better designed gaming laptop. Make this right, and allow this us unhappy consumers to return this flawed laptop.
WOW!
Pros: Price. High Flow. Looks. Quality. Easy install. 1/2 barbs. Has a nice gun like metal finish.
Cons: Does not come with a 1366 mounting kit. :/
Overall Review: This thing is super sweet for the avid overclocker, or even a beginner. I would suggest this block if you are on a budget and want almost the same cooling as the higher end models out there. This is has been rated very very well compared to others out there. Just buy it now :)
Danngg!
Pros: SUPER fast at stock speeds. This chip is over 100% faster then my OC AMD 6000+ @3.4 ghz. This chip munched Super PI 1mb stock speeds @13.4 secs! AMD 33 secs! insane! Please go get this chip now. Don't get the regular quad from Intel.. Just a waste of money unless u want to blow it up from test OCing.
Cons: I can't think of any atm. Waiting to OC until burn period is over.
Overall Review: First Intel I owned was P3 500 mhz! Since then I have been all AMD. I have yet to try out the new Phenom quad. From what I have read about them still doesn't come close to this chip.
Not so dual uses
Pros: Comes with everything you need for both set ups. IDE works with no issues at all... Sata on the other hand... watch out..
Cons: Fried both of my 500GB 3G sata drives... both are now inop... would not recommend this for the sata setup..
Overall Review: Does get a little hot when using it for a hour or so...
ZOMG blazing
Pros: UBER fast ladies and gents! Get this chip you will not regret buying it.
Cons: if you were to buy an intel ;)
Overall Review: AMD has been great to me
