Most Favorable Review

Great cooler. Not as bloated as the 212 EVO

Cooler Master Hyper T4 - CPU Cooler with 4 Direct Contact Heatpipes
Cooler Master Hyper T4 - CPU Cooler with 4 Direct Contact Heatpipes

Pros: - Thinner than its cousin - 120mm fan - Easy for someone accustomed to AMD to install since it uses a clippy fastener - Fit in my tiny mATX case with a GTX 980ti and super tall Corsair Vengeance RAM (The ones with the salad forks sticking out of the top)

Cons: - Not made of solid 14k gold - Can't cook eggs on it.

Overall Review: - I recommend this cooler for small form factor builders that want a top level air cooler.

Scamsung does it again!

SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 500GB SATA III 32 layer 3D V-NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E500B/AM

Pros: - Love the speed/price ratio<br>- Faster than my old Crucial M4<br>- Wasn't DoA

Cons: - None

Great HTPC case

SILVERSTONE Grandia Series GD10B Aluminum HTPC for ATX / Micro-ATX / SSI-CEB Computer Case
SILVERSTONE Grandia Series GD10B Aluminum HTPC for ATX / Micro-ATX / SSI-CEB Computer Case

Pros: - Turned my 2009 ATX gaming PC into my new HTPC<br>- Can fit a Hyper TX3 cpu cooler as long as you don't install a DVD/BR drive.

Cons: - Can't fit a CM Hyper TX3 with a DVD drive installed. Had to switch to an AMD Stock cooler

Overall Review: Buy it!

Works good

Brother HL-L2300D Monochrome Laser Printer with Duplex Printing
Brother HL-L2300D Monochrome Laser Printer with Duplex Printing

Pros: - So far it is working fine<br>- Only requires a single toner cartridge, which isn't too expensive<br>- Good for printing out documents and receipts

Cons: - Didn't come with a USB cord, and asked for one during the setup

Overall Review: - Good for what it is intended for. If I want a photograph printed out I will go to staples or something and have them print it out on their huge expensive amazing printers.

Cheap, Fast

Intel Xeon E3-1231V3 Haswell 3.4 GHz 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1150 80W BX80646E31231V3 Server Processor
Intel Xeon E3-1231V3 Haswell 3.4 GHz 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1150 80W BX80646E31231V3 Server Processor

Pros: - Fast as hell, great alternative to an i7 if you want to put more budget toward your GPU purchase. - Can handle my GTX 980ti - X.E.O.N. Nation

Cons: - Can't overclock these unless you up the bclk

Overall Review: Welcome to the Xeon collective. Prepare to be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

SilverStone Temjin Series TJ08B-E Black Aluminum front panel, steel body Micro ATX Mini Tower Computer Case
SilverStone Temjin Series TJ08B-E Black Aluminum front panel, steel body Micro ATX Mini Tower Computer Case

Pros: - Unique - Simple - Tons of cable room - Fits Corsair Vengeance Salad Fork RAM (Barely) - Fits my massive GTX 980ti - Fits my CM Hyper T4 - Fits all the things - 180mm fan on the front is no joke

Cons: - Very bottom HDD spot is less vibration resistant than the upper ones - Blue lights on front are BRIGHT - Building with it takes longer than some other cases - You have to buy a rear exhaust fan.

Overall Review: - If you don't want a giant empty computer with lights and windows that looks like a space ship, then get this case.
