first ssd

OCZ Agility 3 2.5" 60GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) AGT3-25SAT3-60G
OCZ Agility 3 2.5" 60GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) AGT3-25SAT3-60G

Pros: this thing is fast, loads windows 7 ultimate in about 10 seconds. while others have had problems, I have had none other than making sure your sata cord is hooked up squarely. slightly angled and it won't find the drive.

Cons: None so far, it works like a champ and I shut my comp. off a few times a a day. so it gets a full boot a few times a day, and works perfectly.

Overall Review: I am very happy with this drive and am now looking for one to replace my 500G sata HD, that wont break the bank.

no luck this time

Manufacturer Recertified OCZ Vertex 3 2.5" 120GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) VTX3-25SAT3-120G
Manufacturer Recertified OCZ Vertex 3 2.5" 120GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) VTX3-25SAT3-120G

Pros: I have 3 of these, this one is the only one I bought from a store. this is the only one that died in 20 days. gave it 3 eggs because the others all work fine. its fast and normally they work awesome, neweggs sending a replacement. I expect it to work fine, but if not then I will know the quality of an OCZ refurb.

Cons: like I said it died in 20 days ,could be a con or just a bad one got through, we will see with the replacement!!

Overall Review: I really want this one to work like the others but we will see!!

great card, great deal overall

PowerColor AX7950 3GBD5-2DHV4 Radeon HD 7950 Boost State 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
PowerColor AX7950 3GBD5-2DHV4 Radeon HD 7950 Boost State 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: card was a reference design with boost state, for a low price +rebate +newegg sale. =great deal. yes it has horrible cooling stock, I do mean HORRIBLE. but since it was a reference design a huge awesome cooler from a gigabyte card went right on it, now cools the vrm the gpu and everything else. you know the one with 3 fans. that ones on mine now and I have a card worthy of the $300+ versions for $210, just keep a watch for people selling a card for parts!

Cons: none as long as you change the cooler

Overall Review: I love the card and it stays cool as can be, I just wish the fx 8350 would be so cool.

SO MUCH BETTER than OCZ

G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ

Pros: work right out of the box, they will oc alot, They don't give me random BSOD's like the OCZ that cost 2X as much, that these GSKILL replaced! 8 gigs running @ 1477 with a 1 T , They will go higher easily!

Cons: Only con was I bought some pricey OCZ first, I sold them and lost a bunch a money! thank goodness these GSKILLS were cheap and work better than OCZ.

Overall Review: GSKILL's I'm sold on your products, and will only buy your ram!! from now on!!

happy times

AMD Phenom II X2 550 - Phenom II X2 Callisto Dual-Core 3.1 GHz Socket AM3 80W Desktop Processor - HDX550WFGMBOX
AMD Phenom II X2 550 - Phenom II X2 Callisto Dual-Core 3.1 GHz Socket AM3 80W Desktop Processor - HDX550WFGMBOX

Pros: Mines runs greayt all cores unlocked and it will run on the AI tuners 10% OC so 3.1 + .31 = 3.41 So basically this is a X4 965. I was lucky, not every one here is, so happytimes 87 $ instead of 150+ yeah I''m happy!1

Cons: None for me

Overall Review: If you are buying this in hopes that yours will unlock all 4 cores well good luck, but don't be upset if it doesn't, it is alot of luck, it is a good processor but the 555 BE is 13 bucks more, and If it doesn't unlock 4 cores at least you can OC the daylights out of it!! and it is 100 mhz higher from the get go!!

works but?

OCZ 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) XMP-Ready Rev.2 Desktop Memory Model OCZ3X1600R2LV4GK
OCZ 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) XMP-Ready Rev.2 Desktop Memory Model OCZ3X1600R2LV4GK

Pros: can be set to 1600 , it was cheap, it came from newegg

Cons: Always has to be set to 1600, won't do it on its own, the rebate is a JOKE! and I have random BSODS, and I know the problem is in the memory, but can't prove it

Overall Review: I got what I paid for, so I guess I should be happy but I am sure the crashes come from having to configure everything in the bios. change the timing and then have to change HT and CPUNB ratio and the list goes on!
