EVGA GTX 560
Pros: Runs relatively cool. Overclocked out of the box. Stable and frame rates great for a non top of the line card. Price for performance is good. Have had no problems with EVGA. loyal customer and my interaction with support in the past was good.
Cons: Haven't seen anything yet.. upgraded from EVGA GTX 285 to play BF3 and does the job great. Not going to kill any benchmarks but at the cost, I can use this as a stop gap until I do a major upgrade to my PC in approx. 6 months.
Overall Review: For an interim solution the card and the price point has made me happy. I won't win benchmarks but I didn't drop $500 either. Newegg as usual is the only place I go.
Keyboard
Pros: Reliable and basic keyboard. Good value for low cost.
Cons: Not a lot of extra audio hot keys, but I didn't expect for this cost. Don't have high expectations.
Pretty good board
Pros: This board has plenty of features for a sub $ 200 board. Lot of ports, USB, Firewire. I don't think this board is for the extreme overclocker but for a mid-level enthusiast it fits the bill. I was not looking to spend $300 plus on the board so I am happy.
Cons: This board has the worst SATA HDD ports ever.... I don't know who designed them but they better change. Various SATA cables were tried and the fit was horrible. You need to be careful since I broke two of mine (frustration fueled :(). I wish this board supported DDR3, this would have provided a little more shelf life.
Good lighted keyboard
Pros: Exactly as billed... great entry into lighted keyboards. LED's are nice and bright.
Cons: Elevation of keyboard could be higher. This is a minor gripe.
Overall Review: I felt the cost was good for this product. It does not have a lot of bells and whistles like some multimedia keyboard but for gamers I think it is a strong keyboard.
Good Value...
Pros: Works as promised, I burned a data DVD to back up some. My CD burner was loud (Lite-on) and this samsung unit is pretty quiet in comparision. I have not had this for long so maybe later there might be some cons. 30 bucks how can you go wrong?
Cons: Short time owned.. none so far.
Turnkey for me!
Pros: Worked as advertised.. automatically recognized by XP pro..
Cons: since it has to address a number of IDE drives the fit of the power plug wasn't the best.This is very marginal and the only thing noting.
Overall Review: quick ship from Newegg and this product helped offload an old drive that was not being recognized through the BIOS. I could have messed around with the BIOS but I wanted a quick access to the data and did not want to spend alot of cycles. Recommend this solution highly!
