Most Critical Review

Flimsy

Logitech K200 Black 8 Function Keys USB Wired Standard Keyboard for Business
Logitech K200 Black 8 Function Keys USB Wired Standard Keyboard for Business

Pros: It's black. USB connection.

Cons: Keyboard is super lightweight and feels like it would be easy to fold in half. Feels like a much cheaper keyboard than it actually was.

Overall Review: I thought a logitech keyboard would be a bit beefier.

Outlets galore

Pros: Plenty of outlets. Outlets can be rotate so you can get odd plugs and transformers to fit.

Cons: None so far

Looks Good

GearIT GI-DVI-DVI-WH-6FT White DVI to DVI Dual Link Male to Male Adapter Cable

Pros: It comes in a sealed bag with plastic protectors on the connectors to keep the pins from getting bent.

Cons: None so far

Lower Temps

Noctua NH-U12S, Premium CPU Cooler with NF-F12 120mm Fan (Brown)
Noctua NH-U12S, Premium CPU Cooler with NF-F12 120mm Fan (Brown)

Pros: Temperatures and fan speed dropped quite a bit from stock intel fan. Quieter than intel fan. I have memory with tall heat spreaders. It only fits with the fans parallel to the memory.

Cons: Doesn't fit on Asus sabertooth z77 without modifying the bracket that goes on the bottom of the MB. It rests on some surface mount components. I had to grind a notch in the bracket to clear them. Low fan speed triggers warnings.

Windows

Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit

Pros: Already has service pack 1 installed.

Cons: my ancient password keeper program (infokeep) won't run on windows 7
