Great Cooler
Pros: Does what it is supposed to do. It cools my GPU better than the stock cooler. Video card runs 10 to 15 degrees Celsius cooler now. Fantastic.
Cons: Instructions are garbage.
Overall Review: Who reads instructions anyway?
Get what you pay for
Pros: Retro styling. Quality sound AND it came in black instead of the pictured white. Go figure.
Cons: Poor quality. The mic would not stay up. Pulled it out of the package, unfolded it and it flopped back down.
Overall Review: I had to literally break it to fix it. I opened the base, removed the 2 screws holding the base of the boom on, broke the tab off and wedged the broken part under the original place it was which applied more pressure to keep the mic standing. Put the screws back in and done. If that didn't work it would have gone into the garbage.
Sadly not good
Pros: Good price
Cons: With in a day, drive was disappearing from list of drives. Computer was freezing up if left idle for a few hours or the computer would freeze up while saving to this drive. This is the second drive to to the exact same thing. No problems when the drive is not in the computer.
Overall Review: I have never had this much trouble with a WD drive. Very disappointed. I am spending to much of my money shipping these drives back and forth.
Good Drive
Pros: Good drive, great price.
Cons: Description says it is black. It's more like a dark charcoal. The color stands out on a "black" case. The reason one usually buys a black drive is to match their black case.
Overall Review: If you have OCD or want your black case to look cool, don't buy this drive.
Why did I Pre-order?
Pros: I'm sure the game is great
Cons: I'm sure the game won't stink
Overall Review: I love Newegg.com. I buy ALL my components from them. What I don't understand is why pre-order a game if I'm not going to get it until 2 days AFTER it is released? I could have bought it at midnight you know where. Why couldn't it be shipped to deliver on the release date. I know they have them soon enough. Just saying. Pre-ordering, not the best option.
Stay away from this unit!
Pros: Graphics look really cool. Thats it.
Cons: Screen too slow. It can't find anything. You can't just input a store name or anything else without having to select a category then a subcategory and then it still can't find a restaurant that has been there for 10 years. It couldn't calculate a route to my house 3 miles away with only 3 turns. Everything on the screen is so small it is difficult for some people to even read it. The speaker is junk. If you turn it up to hear it, it is seriously distorted. The power plug in the bottom of the unit makes it impossible to set low on the dash.
Overall Review: I have a lot of experience with GPS's. I have several units for different hobbies. Bottom line, this GPS is not user friendly. It has a couple cool graphic features but other than that it is junk. I am disappointed in Newegg.com for the first time because of their "non refundable return policy" Now I am stuck with this garbage. Hopefully I can re coop most of my money back by selling it on e Bay.
