Most Favorable Review

Good for the money

TekNmotion TM-CD400B1 400 CD / DVD Black Binder Case
TekNmotion TM-CD400B1 400 CD / DVD Black Binder Case

Pros: Good and Cheap. Leather kind of case.

Cons: Have to tear off the V-shaped vinil so that you can stick your CD in for each CD place.

Most Critical Review

Not that good

BYTECC Aluminum Notebook Cooler NC-500 (USB)
BYTECC Aluminum Notebook Cooler NC-500 (USB)

Pros: This cooling unit just doesn't use up your USB connection but has an extension so that another USB can be connected and used together.

Cons: Better than nothing but does not cool your notebook that much. BTW, i use HP/Compaq nw8240. Using aluminum doesn't mean that it cools.

Overall Review: The last one that I had was plastic w/ three fans but it was better.

Great Monitor

MSI Optix MAG271R 27" Full HD Resolution 165Hz Refresh Rate 1ms Response Time AMD FreeSync Technology Anti-Flicker Anti-Glare Frameless Design Gaming Monitor

Pros: Compared to other monitors that sells for less, this monitor is great! Its also my first gaming monitor so I will definitely be buying this or from MSI again like I have done for other parts for my PC.

Cons: None for now.

Overall Review: If you're doing gaming, then I suggest you buy this gaming monitor instead of the other cheaper one's for better experience.

Five star so far!

ASRock N3700-ITX Intel Quad-Core Pentium Processor N3700 (up to 2.4 GHz) Mini ITX Motherboard / CPU Combo
ASRock N3700-ITX Intel Quad-Core Pentium Processor N3700 (up to 2.4 GHz) Mini ITX Motherboard / CPU Combo

Pros: See other

Cons: See other

Overall Review: OS: Win 7 and Win 10 CPU+M/B: N3700-ITX Mem: W3N1600Q-L4G (DDR3-SODIMM PC3-12800 CL11 4GBx2=8GB) SSD: TS128GSSD370S (Transcend SSD 128GB 2.5インチ SATA3 6Gb/s MLC) PSU/PC Case: Generic Bought this as a change from GA-C1037UN-EU Rev 1.0 for home and media center use. Caution/Notes: 1. Out of the Box, the heatsink comes separated from the CPU so use caution when using it. I've bought 3 of this M/B and all three came separated from all different supply routes/shops. 2. USB 3.0 sometimes will not work after installation due to hardware glitches which are been seen over the internet websites. 3. I think some users here complains as they don't read the manual when installing Windows 7 on this M/B. You need to slipstream the USB 3.0 drivers to the Windows 7 ISO disk first before trying to install it or else, on the first screen, your Keyboard and Mouse will not function. Windows 8 and up will not be affected by this USB 3.0 stuff. Overall: I like this M/B and would buy another one if I need to, but I hope the manufacturer fixes these hardware bugs and heat sink not sticking on the CPU by using a better method. New one J3710-ITX with 5 degree higher TDP and a bit better hardware version coming out. But not on newegg yet.

As advertised here by the reviewers

Pros: As advertised and works great, for now.

Cons: not at the moment.

Overall Review: The previous DVD burner "HP 24X Multiformat DVD Writer Black SATA Model 1260i" that is decommissioned now was bought last MAR2011 and refused to function by DEC2011 with very light usage = less than 100 DVD's burned so I've bought this one. Let's see if this one will last longer.

Stops recognizing

Pros: A great buy for the money.

Cons: Its not good when it needs to restart the system every time to let it recognize your media.

Overall Review: I have bought this at $19.99 on 3/23/2011. WinXP system sees this drive as, "HP DVD Writer 1260t". After about 9 months of very light usage, it denies to read the DVD media of any sort. As all things are, its a good product for the money if it works, and "you get what you pay for" or "cheap and nasty" if it stops working. Chinese quality inside? BTW, my plextor PX-708A DVD drive from years ago 2003 or 2004 is still working in excellent condition. Just the rubber damper for the drive is getting bad but everything else is as new even with heavy usage. It costed ten times more than this drive though back then.
