Monster!

EVGA 896-P3-1265-AR GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

Pros: Plays Far Cry 2 Highest Settings No Problem. Running resolution at 1680 x 1050. Ability to Overclock GPU fan for extra air cooling. Didn't overheat at all compared to my 8800GT.

Cons: Nothing yet besides wanted a 280.

Most Critical Review

Average cheap case

ASUS TA-551 Black 0.6mm SECC ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 300W Power Supply
ASUS TA-551 Black 0.6mm SECC ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 300W Power Supply

Pros: It's cheap. I needed a quick fix for a case, that was cheap. Well, this is it. The PCI back panel has a cool locking feature that "frees" you from the typical was of screwing in the card into the slot. You just sort of clip it in. Nice!

Cons: It is pretty small but if you don't need a huge case this is good.

Overall Review: For gamers, I wouldn't really suggest this case. Simiply because the video card, cpu, fans and heatsinks of today are fairly large nowadays.

Damaged on arrival

Hanns-G 27" LCD Monitor 2 ms 1920 x 1080 D-Sub, DVI, HDMI HL272HPB

Pros: Sexy computer monitor 2ms 27''

Cons: When the box came it was beat up, like bunch of angry monkey attacked it. The monitor itself was OK, but the stand and the piece the stand connects to was damaged to a point where I could no longer seat my new monitor.

Overall Review: Depending on how fast/well I can get this remedied with Newegg/Hanns-G I will rate this better.

Good for gym

Pros: I bought this because my in-ear headset were falling out of my ear while I was working out at the gym. These do not do that and I really enjoy them so far. They come with a few different earbud sizes which I found to fit well for me after testing all of them.

Cons: Nothing so far

Great Keyboard

Pros: You can change the blacklight colors, keys feel tough and won't break easy. I bought this to replace my old razor keyboard and was very happy with it.

Cons: The attachment for the bottom of the keyboard is plastic and feels very breakable, but I don't use it anyways so it didnt effect me.

Overall Review: Everything about this keyboard is pretty solid, only grip would be the bottom extension you can connect to the keyboard, which snapped on the bottom but didn't lock it in a way that if you lifted the keyboard it would stay up. What I mean by this is that the extension, when lifted off the table the extension would far off drop off the keyboard.

Absoultely Great for my Q6600

Pros: Awesome! My temps on a stock Q6600 Heatsink was at 140f idle and 155f+ on load. Now it's 85f idle and, most so far, 100f load (Far Cry 2 highest settings). Couldn't have asked for more.

Cons: The actually putting it on the board was weird. Didn't like the tape on the backclip for the back of the motherboard setup. Screw on made me feel like I was breaking something.
