Most Favorable Review

Mostly Works

IOGEAR GBU521 Bluetooth 4.0 Micro Adapter
IOGEAR GBU521 Bluetooth 4.0 Micro Adapter

Pros: Works up to ten feet away and had no problem installing it and pairing my new keyboard. Small design allows for a cleaner back panel.

Cons: It goes into a coma when the computer sleeps and becomes unresponsive. After waking the computer I am unable to type in password to unlock the computer. I know its the adapter because I can switch the keyboard to the mac and type without problem but have no response when switching back to the pc. I'm hesitant about pulling it out since others have had it die upon removal.

Overall Review: Works great so long as you disable computer sleeping.

Most Critical Review

They finally came!

Chrome Pro Series AA Alkaline Batteries Brand New-150 Pack
Chrome Pro Series AA Alkaline Batteries Brand New-150 Pack

Pros: They look sleek.

Cons: No issues with the batteries yet but see below for the full story.

Overall Review: Ordered these back in mid October and was emailed a week later (after getting a tracking number) informing me they ran out of stock. I was given the option of waiting until the second week of November for them to come in or receive a refund. As compensation for waiting they said a pack AAAs would be included. That November date range told to me came and went with no contact from the supplier. After emailing them I was told it would come in Friday and would be sent out that evening. I thanked them for the update and asked for an updated tracking number after they sent it out. The Monday following I again emailed them asking for tracking information and was only told that the package would arrive on Tuesday. Now today (Friday) the package finally makes it to my doorstep but that promised AAA compensation pack is nowhere to be found. I won't drop it to one egg because this had nothing to do with the battery quality but will definitely avoid ordering from Chrome Battery in the future. Numerous reviews praise the products but if you have any issues I wish you luck with their lousy customer service.

So far so good

EVGA GeForce GTX 600 SuperClocked GeForce GTX 660 Ti 3GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 03G-P4-3663-RX
EVGA GeForce GTX 600 SuperClocked GeForce GTX 660 Ti 3GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 03G-P4-3663-RX

Pros: Runs quiet and can handle anything you throw at it without complaint and at $110 off (refurb sale at the time) this is a steal.

Cons: Didn't realize refurbished meant only the card would be shipped, had to dig through old computer parts to find an SLI bridge. Not as sturdy as my other model either. Despite being properly seated in the slot and attached to the case the back end likes to wobble, thankfully the SLI bridge anchors it nicely to my first card.

Overall Review: My first GPU was the FTW edition from EVGA but that has since been discontinued so figured I'd get this while it's on sale. So far there haven't been any problems and performance has been through the roof, but I haven't had a chance to really test its limits.

Fantastic! ...mostly

Pros: Code indicator is a lifesaver for those new to building and the board itself is visually appealing with a clean layout.

Cons: Came with a bum sata 6gb/s port and with only four of these it caused some issues. Had a HDD connected to it and the thing would cycle between being connected to disconnecting at random intervals.

Stylish and Efficient

Rosewill Gaming Computer Case - ATX Mid Tower - Top HDD Dock, Side Window Panel, 5 Preinstalled Fans - BLACKHAWK

Pros: Purchased this for my new build and it is incredible. With the exception of the side plates the entire thing is mesh allowing for maximal airflow, and if you only use two SSD/HDD like myself you can remove the extra racks giving it a cleaner look while providing the front fans clear flow to the mobo.

Cons: Not really a con but definitely something to be aware of: with the top being mesh it is fairly easy for small particles to fall through. Would recommend placing the PC in a location where there's little possibility of things falling onto it.

Decent with some work

White PC Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver For Windows Version 2.1.0.1349

Pros: Is able to connect with the Xbox 360 controller and maintain steady connection.

Cons: Must first download the current driver from Microsoft as stated in description but it only provides minimal functionality. For many of the games I have I required a third party driver to obtain full functionality of the controller and even then needed to change .ini files.

Overall Review: The received product was clearly used and repackaged evident by the multiple deep scratches found on the sides and underneath. Overall the product works well once the proper driver(s) is/are installed.

Sloppy Customer Service

Ordered some AAs back in early October but was told stock ran out. As compensation for waiting until early November I was to receive a AAA pack. Now at the end of November I finally received my original order minus the promised compensation. Apart from the first email informing me of the stock issue, I had to email them for any updates. Each correspondence was unprofessional and contained misinformation about the status of my order. Products are inexpensive and decent but I am greatly disappointed in the customer service I received.
