Most Critical Review

You might get lucky?

Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound, Wireless Headphones with Microphone
Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound, Wireless Headphones with Microphone

Pros: These put out amazing sound quality, after gaming in 7.1 you wont be able to go back. G keys are phenomenal as they allow you to play your favorite playlists from Itunes/Windows Media while gaming. Play the next song or pause between matches without leaving the game. Mic is top notch with noise cancellation and the best you can ask for in mic clarity, I have used it for both gaming and phone calls.

Cons: As reported by so many others, after several months of use the headset began cutting out...every 3-5 seconds. Simply designed to fail after purchase. Yo Logitech, 3-5 year lifespans, not 3-5 months.. Logitech support "service" is like the Comcast of pc products, expect a rigid process in order to get these replaced.

Overall Review: As great of a deal this appears to be, understand that you have pretty much a 50/50 shot of this product working consistently after 6 months. As tempting as it may be, move on to the next best thing. This rating is far too high for the price of a product that is designed to fail too soon.

Plug and Play

C2G 27078 3-Pin Fan to 4-Pin Pass-Through Power Adapter Cable (6 Inch)
C2G 27078 3-Pin Fan to 4-Pin Pass-Through Power Adapter Cable (6 Inch)

Pros: These work great! Especially when mobo connections are limited or hard to access.

Cons: none

Overall Review: These cables are for plugging directly into your power supply and will run fans at 100%. Should you be looking to control fan speed you will need to look to mobo connections. I'm utilizing these for an older build, saved the tower by cleaning it out and replacing the stock fans. The mobo did not have enough 4 pin connectors for the replacement fans so these cables certainly made the workaround easy.

Highly Recommend

ASUS VS Series VS247H-P 24" (Actual size 23.6") Full HD 1920 x 1080 60Hz HDMI VGA DVI-D SPLENDID Modes Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor

Pros: Best monitor I have purchased. Colors look amazing, 2ms refresh rate is top notch, and the LED back light works great. If you are looking for a new monitor/dual set for that new rig then go with these.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Buying a second for a new build and thought I would come back to write a review Did not think I would use the "SPLENDID" presets as much as I do, but they are great! Also the stand is not as flimsy as it may look. if your having trouble with monitor vibration you may want to look at a new desk. ;)
