SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 2600XT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100218L
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 2600XT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100218L

Pros: It cant handle Graphic intense 3D games. IE crisis genre of games (recommend 8800GT or GTS for graphic intense games) However, handles regular games perfectly. I use this video card w/ HDTV Tuner. Works fine. Records fine. Sometimes skips but rarely. Tried it on Pent4 3Mhz 3G Ram. w winXP. and Quad-Core Q6600 3Mhz 4G Ram w Win vista Premium (both Dell systems) Works w 32bit and 64bit flawlessly. Have not tried Cross Fire (no SLI support on dell) but why cross fire w Low to med-low end video cards anyway.

Cons: Bought mine for 104. now its 80 bucks. good Bang-4-UR-Buck video card, but would recommend spending 30 bucks more and getting a 256Bit video card. Card will be out-dated soon.

Overall Review: ATI for video/HDTV watching (ATI is hardware driven) ASUS for games (software driven). ANY CARD w 256MB (can be had for under 50 bucks) is plenty enough for office work, internet browsing, casual non 3d, and some 3d games. Dont over spend on video card. Spend it on better ram/cpu/mother board instead.

Avg Video Card.

GIGABYTE GeForce 9600 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card GV-N96TZL-512I
GIGABYTE GeForce 9600 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card GV-N96TZL-512I

Pros: 80 bucks for a 256bit/PCI-E w SLI is nice. Not as loud as everyone says. its acceptable IMO. Size is normal IMO. as long as you dont have a Slim case u r ok. HDMI + Digital + Analog connection is nice.

Cons: Cant run WoW at best settings at 60 fps; FPS drops- Works ok at avg settings. 45-60 fps. 30 FPS n Below if you do 25 raids on avg. Would suggest paying 50 bucks more if you plan on doing Shooter games. Have to play at LOW settings for Shooter games IMO.

Overall Review: Q8300 chip. 4 gig of OCZ ram. 500Watt PWS. Vista 64bit. Not OC ing. just stock. Good for avg gamers. who do not mind avg shading, FPS, and colors. Cant get 30FPS at WoW at best. not even going to try higher demanding games. 3 Eggs cause it was bit of a let down. it said core memory was Over clocked to 700mhz. pffft. my old ATI 3870 runs better than this. Min Power req is 400watts. (used 500watt on this build) Fits perfect into my Dell mini tower. or Reg ATX case fine. I can hear video card while not running anything but IE.

Disappointed

RAZER Naga Massively Multiplayer Online Gaming Mouse
RAZER Naga Massively Multiplayer Online Gaming Mouse

Pros: High quality expected from razer. Good response; Adjustable from dull to super sensitive. Easy Driver installation from razersupport.com. DL exe file and run. restart system. unique idea of adding 12 button num pad to mouse. Sleek and light mouse.

Cons: 12 button num pad. Key 1-6 are easy to reach. however 7-12 are bit harder. 7 & 10 are very difficult for me to reach. Everytime i click on the Num Pad, i instinctively click right or left mouse key to prevent the mouse from moving. Which makes it difficult to cast mouse over macro/spells, and click on wrong targets. Buttons 4 & 5 on mouse are bit hard to reach, and takes getting used to.

Overall Review: Maybe i just have ogre-ish hands or thumb and thats why i cant press the buttons correctly. (i wear Large when i buy gloves). Guess the mouse was built for more Med size hands. Great concept for MMO players. Be great for WoW players. Wish Num Pad buttons were bit more sensitive so i dont have to mash it, which makes the mouse move to the right.

Neat "laptop" mouse

OCZ Technology Equalizer OCZMSEQRM Black/Blue 7 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Laser 2500 dpi Gaming Mouse
OCZ Technology Equalizer OCZMSEQRM Black/Blue 7 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Laser 2500 dpi Gaming Mouse

Pros: Responsive for a $13 dollar mouse. Glides well over reg cloth pad. and gaming pad. Plug n Play w Vista 64 bit.

Cons: SMALL. size of laptop mouse. made for girls or guys w small hands. Wish it was bit more sensitive. not really "gaming mouse" quality.

Overall Review: 13 bucks, makes this a good purchase. Good for people looking for a portable (laptop use) wired mouse. has. 600/800/1200/1600/2000/2500 dpi settings.

Perfect Low-end PS.

PC Power & Cooling ModXStream Pro Series 500 Watt 80+ Semi-Modular Active PFC Performance Grade ATX PC Power Supply (OCZ500MXSP)

Pros: Comes w plug as needed cables so you dont have useless cables in your case ruining circulation. Has everything you need for SLI video cards. w/e you need to OC and what not.

Cons: Cables might be bit too short for mid-high tower cases.

Overall Review: Cables i thought were perfect in length for a mini tower case. 500 watt is perfect for basic system. perfect for low-mid end SLI systems. Fan is quiet. cant complain.
