Samsung, You Can't Go Wrong
Pros: - Samsung - Good Price, Especially for the Brand - 500GB (Installed Win 8.1 still have 465GB) - Everything goes from Nascar to Formula 1 - Very, Very Light Weight
Cons: - None, I doubt there will be at all.
Overall Review: Samsung, everything they do is amazing...ly expensive. But! They give you what you want. Not the stuff some companies do or don't say. If your looking for hours for the best SSD, this is it.
Was Great When it Worked
Pros: - Cheap - Good size - Comes with adaptor
Cons: Died in 10 months of continuous use
Overall Review: I got this back in May of 2014 and loved it for the storage i could keep on it. I had switched from an 8GB SD to this 32GB SD so i had more space than i needed. I kept pictures, music, apps, app data, and everything else on it. well just today i wake up and all my stuff is gone and a message pops up saying "SD was unexpectedly removed" Its still in there and tried other SDs and works for them. Also am using a galaxy s4. try to use the adapter to connect to pc and nothing. just all gone. I am really disappointed and not recommending this to anyone for long term use. Sorry for such bad review but it is my experience with this SD.
Very nice!
Pros: - Great looking - Works the way it should and better - Fairly easy install
Cons: - Tubes are a bit long - Fans are noisy - Didn't come with the 3-pin connector for fans - Metal bracket doesn't seem too secure
Overall Review: I had bought this on NeweggFlash mainly because my old liquid cooler was a bit outdated by a few years. Noticed CPU heat was climbing and staying. So I ordered this nice looking liquid cooling system and got it within 3 days. After install, noticed the metal bracket is a bit loose or doesn't tighten too well, but it seems to stay without rattle. The waterblock also seemed a bit wobbly so i just used some electrical tap around the base of the block. It was the only thing available to me at the time. That seemed to stop it from shifting about. Next was the length of the tubes. They are a bit long and I'm sure I could shorten them but I'm not too worried. After running my PC I noticed the noise from the fans instantly and had to change them immediately. Note to reader, If you plan on buying this, buy 2 other fans as well unless you have 2 to spare. The stock fans are just way too noisy for my liking. Other than that it does the job well, my PC is running very cool with CPU being as low as 60 - 70 degrees. When replacing the stock fans, the instructions said there was connector cables but I did not receive any. Luckily I had a connector cable for the 2 fan replacements to spare. After reading a few reviews it was a bit uneasy buying this but I am not regretting on buying it. It looks cool and does the job.
Works Great!
Pros: - Easy Install - Win 8.1 Compatible - Excellent Range (Router 1st Floor, PC 3rd Floor) - Great Software to Help Connect to Internet - Fast Shipping
Cons: - PC didn't Recognize Adapter First Time. I had an issue where my PC wasn't picking up the newly installed adapter so the driver disc wouldn't install anything. After a few restarts and unplugging the adapter, it started recognizing it.
Overall Review: As you see there are more pros than cons, but then again I have only had this for a short time but what I can say is this thing is great! I got it to replace a USB wireless adapter that would say it kept disconnecting on Win 8.1 but after this adapter, I have had no issues like that what so ever. Other than my old adapter, I am now able to use the 5GHz band of my router and it is so much faster now. The connection can be a bit less than that of the 2.4GHz but not too bad. As said in the pros, the range is great. My PC is on the 3rd floor and my router is on the first floor with no interruptions. I highly suggest this to anyone for it is a great adapter and does the job well.
It's Windows
Pros: - Fast - Quick Install (10 min w/ SSD) - Customizable - No issues ran into along the way. - Quick startup - Choice of 32 & 64 bit - Came with free AntiVirus (didn't use it though)
Cons: - Some things don't run on Win 8 yet (My wireless adapter wasn't win 8 compatible and tends to disconnect randomly) - Uninstalled a few tiles, just annoying.
Overall Review: I switched from Win 7 Ultimate and was afraid I was going to miss Win 7, I do but this still does it for me. I had bought a new SSD and wanted Win 8 on a fast, clean drive. It asks me if i want to use win 7 or win 8.1 every startup (haven't transferred from old drive yet) but i like that in case if i wanted to until i wipe the drive. I suggest this, highly. If your sick of your pc constantly running at the best it can to make things go faster but without straining your pcs lifetime, this is the OS for you.
Amazing
Pros: - Spacious - Comes with NZXT fans, especially the 200mm - Looks great - Nice backpanel room to put all the clutter of cords - A lot more HDD space than I will ever need - Fan controller works amazingly
Cons: - The ATX motherboard holes was not correctly lined up and will need some modification to fit properly. - Outside can be easily scratched up but thats to be expected from a metal/plastic case.
Overall Review: I got this with on a discounted price but it's definitely worth the current price. I can see myself using this case for quite a long time, it seems it will have a good, durable life. Realize it is quite a big case so expect to lose some desk space, unless of course you have a different arrangement for it. Highly recommended, you cant go wrong with NZXT.
