Most Favorable Review

Great Picture!

ASUS VW246H Glossy Black 24" HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 ASCR 20000:1 (1000:1) Built-in Speakers
ASUS VW246H Glossy Black 24" HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 ASCR 20000:1 (1000:1) Built-in Speakers

Pros: Fantastic picture! Great color and refresh time for videos and gaming. Quality enclosure and control buttons. Great buy for the money!!!

Cons: Not much of a "con" but, there are a couple of minor details I would liked to have on this model... a USB hub and a vertical stand adjustment. For this price and quality I can get by without those additions.

Overall Review: I purchased the first one for couple a few months back and they love it. It is performing exceptionally well for them so I decided to treat myself to one. I high recommend this product!!!

Great Gaming Mouse

Pros: I always wait to place a review after a year to ensure the product holds up. When I bought this mouse it was under the Cyborg label. It is now under Mad Catz. Extremely accurate mouse with loads of programmable buttons. Very ergonomic with adjustable hand fit and weights. It is also very durable.

Cons: There are two negative things. First, the mouse is expensive. A year ago this mouse sold for $99.00 it now goes for $129.00. That's a big jump in price. Second, this is the second R.A.T. mouse I've owned. I started with the R.A.T-5 nearly 3 years ago and still use it. After using the mouse for a while I notice that I would get black all over my hand. I discovered that the bottom plate leaves a residue after the mouse is used for a while. Not sure what causes it. Both models have done this.

Overall Review: Although I had a couple of negative things to say about this mouse I still highly recommend it for gamers and folks that work with high graphic projects that need an accurate ergonomic mouse.

Second Set

Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset
Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

Pros: This is my second purchase of the Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset. I had my previous pair for over a year when one of my kid's tripped on the cord and ripped it our of the plug. Since they are priced so reasonably I bought another. This is a great headset for music and gaming plus the construction quality is really good. I highly recommend this headset.

Cons: None really...

Overall Review: The only way to make these better in my book is to come up with a wireless version.

Great Monitor

ASUS VH202T-P Glossy black 20" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor w/ HDCP Support 300 cd/m2 ASCR 20000:1 Built in Speakers w/ Aspect Control
ASUS VH202T-P Glossy black 20" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor w/ HDCP Support 300 cd/m2 ASCR 20000:1 Built in Speakers w/ Aspect Control

Pros: I've purchased 3 of these monitors over the past year. I personally have been using two of them. Great picture and resolution. Works great in a dual monitor setup. Well built and a great bang for the buck!

Cons: The speakers are not that great but for my application it is not an issue

Overall Review: I highly recommend this monitor if you want a good value.

Love This Case

SilverStone RAVEN RV02-BW Matte Black 0.8mm Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case
SilverStone RAVEN RV02-BW Matte Black 0.8mm Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case

Pros: Before giving a review of a product I like to use it for a while. I purchased this case over 8 months ago and here is what I find: Quiet, well built, and plenty of room. Those 3 things sum up this case for me. It also provides incredible quiet cooling with filtered fans. Due to the large size and open area this was the easiest and cleanest build I have ever made. Wire management was extremely easy.

Cons: To make this a perfect case for me Silverstone needs to add USB 3 ports and come up with a better/simpler SSD mount. Lowering the retail price a little wouldn't hurt either. Adding different colors would be a nice addition also. None of these minor issues comes close to a deal breaker in my book.

Overall Review: If this model is still around by the time I build my next one I will definitely buy another.
