Most Favorable Review

Just wow...

COUGAR Vortex PWM 120mm (CF-V12HPB) Cooling Fan with Hydro-Dynamic Bearing and Pulse Width Modulation (Black Version)
COUGAR Vortex PWM 120mm (CF-V12HPB) Cooling Fan with Hydro-Dynamic Bearing and Pulse Width Modulation (Black Version)

Pros: This is an awesome fan. I found it very easy to install. SUPER SUPER Quiet. At max RPM's (1500) its still barely noticeable. The way the fans are shaped and grooved makes a big difference, it focuses the air better and moves alot of it. I used this for an intake fan for the front of my case, could not be happier, moves air, stays silent, long life span. It's rated for 300k hours, thats 34 years. Just wow...

Cons: None so far with the product. The shipping was awful tho.

Overall Review: Shipping was horrible. It had free shipping, so i took that. normally it take like 3-4 days for anything i order on newegg to arrive, been that way since 2008 when i ordered my first product on here. I ordered this on the 2/26/2016, it showed up today 3/8/2016. I found out the free shipping method this time was shipped out through DHL. first and last time I use them, next time ill just pay extra for ups, they are at least reliable.

Pros: My first ever PSU. PC Power and Cooling aren't around anymore but they are the staple for Quality made products. Had this since 2008. Ran quiet as hell since its the silencer series. I ran everything at this psu and it just took it like champ and ask for more. Never once had an issue with it and when i built a pc for my brother this went into it about a few years ago. It's still running and powering current gen products with ease. 10/10 would buy again. Ty PC power and Cooling, you will be missed.

Cons: None at all.

Overall Review: I put this thing through extreme conditions. When I lived with my grandma I turned her garage into a Lan for my friends and I. There was no insulation in there so when it was blazing hot outside, it felt like it was doubled on the inside. When it was freezing temperature out, 4 feet of snow, it was like a freezer in there. We did this every day for years. It always powered on, and always delivered. I really cant say enough good things about this PSU. It will break my heart if and when it does actually die, but its still thriving to this day in my brothers system. It's a trooper and a testament to this company. I freaking love you guys. You all should be proud of your work here in this psu.

Best Sound Card Ever

Pros: This was the first purchase I ever made online, and my first PC part purchase. I got this back in 2008 and its still going strong today. I still use it in my rig now. Still produces the best sound quality i've ever heard from anything. The specs on this compared to anything out there today either match or surpass anything thats come out since. I really cant say enough good things about this card. If you're lucky enough find one still floating around out and there and is in good shape, BUY IT. Worth every penny. Sound quality is amazing and the X-Fi crystalizer truly does make a difference and enhances your favorite songs so you hear more from it or greatly clearifies those foosteps and sound of different terrain of your enemy in fps games. also Positional audio from this card is SICK. Love it.

Cons: None, ever.

Pros: Just a great product overall. Had since 2010, still using it today in my current system. No issues, no mechanical failures, perfect temp always. Just a quality made product and not surprising at all why its lasted all these years.

Cons: none

Cons: none at all

Overall Review: had this since 2012
