Low cost, best of best.
Pros: Fast connecting time when compared to dlink 520b, zoom modems, zyxel. Pings decreased by an average of 20. After switching from dlink 520b. No issues, just works. Using Centurylink DSL VA area.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: I took a chance on this modem after own several over the years. It is super cheap, but with my current isp it has provided a much more stable connection also reduced my pingtimes on average by 20 or more. Really happy with it.
Why?
Pros: Good if you've never used the G9 series. Middle thumb button is a plus.
Cons: After using the G9 logitech mouse for over 6 years, this mouse doesn't compare. I play FPS games competitively. I have owned the g500s for about 1+ year now. I noticed a stark difference in click speed. The G9 is more stable in comparison with less travel during clicks. The tracking seems smoother as well. The tall arch and lenght of the G500s was the hardest to get used to. It places your pointer finger higher which I believe is the culprit for slower click speeds. It also caused pain in my wrist and hand for a few weeks while I adapted to the arch. The mouse is a half an inch taller than the G9 with a considerable arch from front to back.
Overall Review: I don't know how to explain it other than the old G9 seems more accurate all the way around. I noticed a drop in my frag rate with the g500s, went back to the G9 and improved. Fo me, the higher DPI is a useless ploy. I tried it, couldn't use it properly. Many games use windows sensitivity in menus and hardware in game which is a big pain in the rear with high DPI...

Pros: -Avg or better warranty period and good support(from past experiences) -good heat pipe design giving it a better cooling capacity than reference design
Cons: I don't like the fans they use, I've had SOC windforce versions of their designs in the past and they don't last as long as the should and often rattle which means their probably sleeve bearing fans. Sleeve bearings should never be mounted in any direction other than vertically. Being an OC card and one of their top tier models I would expect at least dual ball bearing fans.
Overall Review: If your looking for a 780ti and not sure which to get, stop wasting time. Most of the top manufacture's current offerings are all the same, from reference to OC. Pick the one your comfortable with, I see none that truly stand out. If you visit each manufactures product page you'll see even the OC numbers have all been competitively matched, BASE:1020 MHz / BOOST:1085 MHz, or with in a few mhz.. The only card I don't like is the Zotac with their one year less than anyone else's standard warranty.
Great little mic
Pros: Clips on head phone cord or shirt. Small minimal. Very clear mic with not strange background noises. Voice activation in different programs pick up very well with this mic. Have had three, 2 on zalman headphones and this stand alone, all the same all still work great.
Cons: none.
Overall Review: Great gaming/voip mic, often better than microphone included on some headsets.
Great buy!
Pros: Price/Performance. Have used this particular chip in 3 builds. Just works.
Cons: none
Overall Review: To the bad reviewers, poop happens... Test your stuff before the 30 days... Any company can pass bad parts. Usually a bad memory chip will produce one of two results, no boot w/mem post error, or bsod. This shouldn't have taken 30 days to diagnose. Adata has been around awhile, i consider them name brand stuff.
Nice but not worth it.
Pros: Sound is good, clear highs and deep lows. Range is very very good, can walk almost 40+feet away and it picks up through walls no problem.
Cons: Extremely buggy. Be warned... This headset looses connection constantly. I have owned it for over 1 year. The first month or two it worked great, but since it has had nothing but issues losing connection or the base would lose power. I have tried many remedies with no real solution. It has gotten progressively worse the past month, with very loud pops when it powers off and sometimes will not come back on with out pulling out the base usb adapter and reseating it. If this headset was a $50 headset I would say whatever, but these are too expensive to have these issues.
Overall Review: Don't take my word for it, read the forums. Because of the connection/power issues this set is simply not worth buy until logitech resolves the issues or releases a new 'working' product.
