Cooler Master MasterBox K500 ARGB ATX Mid Tower w/ Front Semi-Meshed Ventilation, Tempered Glass Side Panel, ARGB Lighting System & 2 x 120mm ARGB Fans
Cooler Master MasterBox K500 ARGB ATX Mid Tower w/ Front Semi-Meshed Ventilation, Tempered Glass Side Panel, ARGB Lighting System & 2 x 120mm ARGB Fans

Pros: The Mid size tower case, has a one fan installed pushing air out the back of the case, and has room for liquid cooling either on the top (240MM max) or mounted on the Front (360mm Max) Cable Routing is set behind the Motherboard tray with about .75” of space. The typical amount cable tie downs spots for a clean look. The Cable holes are Rounded metal to protect from cutting your wires as you feel them behind the motherboard tray. There is a fixed PSU cover so you have to put the PSU in from the Back of the case. Helps hide the extra cables since the side window is the full side panel. Front is a metal mesh, in black and were the red high lights are there is a think fiber mesh you need to be careful as you clean the case, feels like you can put a finger through it. Top air filter is attached with flexable magnets

Cons: Lack of Fan means you will get at least one for air flow. Weak fiber mesh / around color on cover.

Overall Review: ATX (up to 272mm width), Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX 7 Expansion slots 2 Combo Drive bays 3.5”/2.5” 1 Pre installed Fan (non-led) Bottom Mount PSU Side panel is smoke color plastic / Plexi Color is black with a touch of Red on the front (other colors include Back/white/Blue)

Easy setup, not really for PC's

Netgear XAVB5421-100PAS AV500 1-Port Essentials Edition Powerline Kit with Pass-Thru Outlet,up to 500Mbps
Netgear XAVB5421-100PAS AV500 1-Port Essentials Edition Powerline Kit with Pass-Thru Outlet,up to 500Mbps

Pros: was able to get around 60mbps download speeds easy setup, was able to have my 11 year help. Encrypts line when using in Apt to help keep your network separate from others. over all it is an easy device to setup and takes little to no time to get OK speeds for streaming video that, or music to TV. Game consoles fine when streaming on them.

Cons: Not able to fit 3 prong plug in other outlet above unit that is a 3 prong device. Random drops in network, playing games with the kids and one in the other room that was connected through the powerline would drop off Skype and off the home network for 30 seconds. Games like Mindcraft was fine. but adding Skype and playing Arc or Diablo 3 we started seeing some lag that we needed to switch back to the network jack.

Overall Review: over all the device is nice, if you dont leave the line connected (game / TV that gets turned on for a few hours at a time. worked Great for the apple TV wired connection, got computer gaming after a few days with the computer being on it started dropping until we reset the connection (unpluged both for 5-10 seconds). We are keeping it connected to the apple to TV for a wired connection. It is not always on and line seem to fine when device sleeps or is powered off.

Pros: This is a cheap RGB AIO cooler. Its easy to install, keeps the CPU cool.

Overall Review: Its not the high end RGB Corsair cooler but you really dont need all of the Fancy RGB lights if the computer is being stuff in a corner. Keeps the I9 12Gen at a decent temp. System used to run Linux and run game servers.

Easy setup

devolo Magic 2 WiFi next Starter Kit

Pros: Help with coverage where WIFI was weak. No running cables through the walls (Even better when you rent).

Cons: bulky devices only usable on bottom plug or it would block the other one (Issue comes when the bottom plug is on a switch for room lighting)

Overall Review: It is a quick and easy to expand a WIFI network into a dead / weak area in the house. I used it to bring up my LTE home internet connection into the bed room. We use it for streaming and had no issues. It left the main internet for work, games and school work, that has caused some issues with some streaming. It also serves as a backup to the work system when the other connection had an outage.

Gen12 Mother Board, Heavy Weight,

GIGABYTE Z690 AORUS MASTER LGA 1700 Intel Z690 EATX Motherboard with DDR5, 5x M.2, PCIe 5.0, USB 3.2 Gen2X2 Type-C, Intel WiFi 6E, AQUANTIA 10GbE LAN

Pros: 10GB Lan (Not many can use it but my NAS is 10GB as well so works 5 M.2 slots, 3 at PCIex4 DDR5 Memory (Good and bad as can use old memory ) WiFI built in .. Back up networking or for those that don't use wires

Cons: F2 firmware - didn't support m.2 out of the box, Had to flash the Bios

Overall Review: Over all Nice mother board, Fast speeds to NAS system, Wifi for Dual netowkr or wireless users. Lots of space for N.2 drives but spent a lot of time doubling checking if drives were on supported list, trying to figure out why they were not being seen. Should not have shipped with m.2 drive issues, almost everyone would use at least 1, mine has 3 in it, Mother board alone is 7lb in weight.
