Most Favorable Review

Great for the price

Pros: So far this machine has been great to me, its really snappy and quick, partly due to lack of bloatware installed on it. It's whisper quiet even though it has four fans on the case. For the price it's a very good gaming rig, Skyrim at very high, draw distances all set 3/4 of the way up the scale, AA at 8x and anisotropic at 12x. The Old Republic fully maxed and running at 60 frames without a hitch. Might not be able to run some of the really high end games like Battlefield at max but for a mid level gaming rig this one fits the bill nicely.

Cons: The case is really ugly, but thankfully that has no bearings on performance. The keyboard and mouse are worth a grand total of 50 cents each, I would suggest using your older ones or just getting new ones to go with this machine.

Overall Review: Shipping was super fast, ordered on a Wednesday and was worried that I wouldn't get the system before new years, showed up two days later and I couldn't have been happier.

Just okay

Pros: The case and packaging is amazing like all Razer products. The normal sound quality is nice.

Cons: The bass is horrible even if you manage to get the "perfect seal" inside your ear. Getting that seal however is much easier said then done, they like to fall out at the slightest movement such as talking or even just walking. Don't get these and expect them to be runner friendly.

Overall Review: They serve their purpose as a decent portable gaming headset but they are not as multi purpose due to the sensitivity required to get them in a perfect position for audio quality.

Amazing.

Pros: This thing is massive, much larger than I thought it would be. Picture quality is amazing, and it has a very simple interface.

Cons: The speakers are a little washed out but that is to be expected, they are good enough for short term listening but a sound system is recommended.

Overall Review: Overall this is a fantastic monitor and will serve anyone very well.
