BEWARE NO ZALMAN SUPPORT

ZALMAN CNPS10X Extreme 120mm CPU Cooler with Worlds first PWM Fan Speed Controller
ZALMAN CNPS10X Extreme 120mm CPU Cooler with Worlds first PWM Fan Speed Controller

Pros: This cooler has lasted me since 2009 and has run fine on two AMD set ups since. It is dead silent, and pretty efficient. No problems.

Cons: REALIZE THERE IS BAD and MINIMAL CUSTOMER SUPPORT. The number on their website goes to their office in Korea. After a lengthy Korean recording I can't understand anyway, it hangs up on you. And emails suggest they don't understand English.

Overall Review: I didn't want to reduce eggs because it is a good cooler and Newegg hasn't let me down. However, don't expect to find any Zalman support. Look online and you'll see this is not an uncommon issue. In my case, I need a mounting bracket/clip for LGA 1155 for my new build, which didn't come with the cooler (in 2009), and their email reply was "Yes. 1156 and 1155 has the exact same dimension." My second email clearly stating I need a 1155/1156 bracket seems to have gone ignored. I'm tired of waiting for a late and probably unhelpful email and I'm not wasting money on international calls that disconnect you. I'm glad the cooler I bought has been a champ this whole time, but I'd rather drop some cash and just buy a new cooler from another manufacturer with better support for the long run.

Good while it lasted

Logitech G500 10 Buttons Dual-mode Scroll Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse
Logitech G500 10 Buttons Dual-mode Scroll Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse

Pros: Precise, smooth, adjustable weights. Everything a gaming mouse needs. Infinite scroll is the best.

Cons: Right click started acting up after 2 years; makes contact but wont keep it. Still works, but can't game or 3d model with it anymore, and it's advertised as a gaming mouse. Durability seems to be an issue.

Good and bad

Corsair Graphite Series 600T Arctic White Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Corsair Graphite Series 600T Arctic White Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Looks awesome. Very spacious and has lots of airflow. Easy open/detachable covers. Wide grippy footprint = sturdiest case I've seen.

Cons: Front 200mm fan died 3 months ago. Would get it replaced, but looking to replace all the fans anyway. Large for a midATX case. Plastic shell/mould not perfectly mated (common 600t problem), and catches on metal door. Not an ideal case for water cooling (only a 240 rad up top). Also, the front panel USB 3.0 has a standard connector that you have to plug in the back of your motherboard (really??). Wire seems short for that.

Overall Review: The case looks awesome, has lots of airflow and internal space. However, not a fan of the 200mm fans. Also, I'm building a custom loop now and foresee lots of case hacking; sort of wish I had a different case...

Cheap but works.

Coboc HS-10 10 ft. HDMI High Speed with Ethernet - Type A to Type A
Coboc HS-10 10 ft. HDMI High Speed with Ethernet - Type A to Type A

Pros: Works. 10feet of cable. Cheap

Cons: Poor construction. Plastic housing at the plug came apart out of the box. Cable feels cheap and is rather thin.

Overall Review: It's 10 feet and it works, and I'm not moving it from where it is now so it should keep working.

terrible speeds until it dies. just stay away.

ASUS PCE-N10 802.11n Wi-Fi N150 PCIe Adapter
ASUS PCE-N10 802.11n Wi-Fi N150 PCIe Adapter

Pros: It fits in my computer.

Cons: Worked for a little bit, giving me low but okay speeds. I put up with it because I was lazy. Fast forward 1month, with usage time way under 1month. Keeps dropping my signal, and gives unbearably low speeds. Paying for 50Mb/s at the modem, getting 1.2Mb/s through this adapter. Thought it was the router, until I tried my old Buffalo USB adapter which spat out a 22Mb/s. I keep trying, but it's not giving me anything above 4Mb/s now, when it even works. I give up; this junk is going in the garbage.

Overall Review: I sent in my rebate at 30days. I hope they give me my money back because this is probably the worst decision I've made on Newegg. I should have listened to the other bad reviews (but hey, it was on sale).

Nice

LEPA 70D 12 (LP70D12R) Case Fan

Pros: Quiet. Moves air. Got it on sale. Subtle but doesn't scream 'cheap.'

Cons: Pricey when not on sale.

Overall Review: Why isn't this on sale anymore?
