Nice Reciever

Pioneer VSX-521-K 5.1-Channel 3D Ready A/V Receiver
Pioneer VSX-521-K 5.1-Channel 3D Ready A/V Receiver

Pros: Really nice reciever for my spare 3.1 room setup. I was looking for a more mordern reciever that had HDMI passthrough and low and behold here was the reciever.

Cons: Not really a show stopper but it would have been nice if I did not have to run a sperate cable to program the reciever on the TV screen.

Overall Review: Overall so far so good and what I paid for this thing I cannot go wrong.

Disappointing!

SAMSUNG 960 EVO M.2 250GB NVMe PCI-Express 3.0 x4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-V6E250BW
SAMSUNG 960 EVO M.2 250GB NVMe PCI-Express 3.0 x4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-V6E250BW

Pros: Extremely fast!!

Cons: Purchased two of these and setup as a raid stripped. One of these drives died which of course wiped all my drive C: stuff. This fell 2 days out of the Newegg RMA process so now I have to figure out how to get the defective drive back to Samsung to get another.

Overall Review: I have purchased Samsung SSD's for years now but this offering is very buggy and not ready for prime time in my opinion. I will have to think long and hard before buying another Samsung SSD...... bad for Samsung because I am an IT guy and buy several a month.......

Outstanding!

SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 500GB, PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280, Speeds Up-to 6,900MB/s (MZ-V8P500B/AM)
SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 500GB, PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280, Speeds Up-to 6,900MB/s (MZ-V8P500B/AM)

Pros: It is a very fast Samsung Drive

Overall Review: I installed 3 of these on my ASUS Z690 Plus board and the results were stellar! So far so good and all applications, games and internet just smoke now.

I got a Dud

GIGABYTE GA-Z170XP-SLI (rev. 1.0) LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-Z170XP-SLI (rev. 1.0) LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Looked really nice and had high hopes

Cons: Not many at all. Lots of issues with the motherboard. I could not load upgrade WIN8.1, would not allow it to happen, just hang up. I purchased a full version which did install but the OS ran no so well with major DVD drive issues telling me my DVD's were bad.

Overall Review: I tried updating the BIOS to the new version with no luck,,, worked a little better but as a whole ran bad. I was going to return the board and get something else so when getting ready to package it back up I dropped the plastic guard which hit the Socket 1151 pins and dented a couple of them. This is now a major $135 mistake..... First time I got burn't this bad but things happen I guess. I would give this a one egg if I was not so clumsy and dented a couple of pins.

Good Stuff

SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7PD256BW
SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7PD256BW

Pros: Small, fast and quiet!

Cons: I really do not have any Cons!

Overall Review: I have used several other brands of SSD drives and I will totally admit that this drive actually seems faster than the other brands. The other brands are fast and snappy but this drive just seems to go over the top! As the saying goes........ once you had SSD you can never go back to a mechanical offering ever again.

I am excited

Logitech Recertified Harmony 900 Universal RF Remote Control
Logitech Recertified Harmony 900 Universal RF Remote Control

Pros: Nice feel, touch screen and RF connection

Cons: So far no cons..... I have my fingers crossed

Overall Review: It definitely was a retailed open box but all parts within looked like new and everything works like a charm so far. I would like to add that you need to use the Harmony Remote software to set this unit up. It is not a plug and play like the previous review seemed to state. Yes it is a little tricky using the software so a little patients goes a long way for a really killer deal. I hope this thing works as I am ready to order another one!

Buyer Beware

I always like buying from Newegg. I did not pay attention to where this Ram was coming from and apparently it was not coming from a Newegg warehouse but somewhere in Asia. 2 days short of a month now and still no product!! Completely understandable with the COVID situation but buyer beware and pay attention to what you are buying and where it is coming from!

Not bad at all

Was very happy with my purchase. Holds my 32" Samsung LED TV perfectly in my 5th wheel!
