Excellent RMA Service!

G.SKILL AEGIS 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C11D-8GIS
G.SKILL AEGIS 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C11D-8GIS

Pros: I had previously purchased this kit in June of 2016 for a client build. However, one of the two modules had failed in under two years of service. After having been contacted by G.Skill here on Newegg, I filed an RMA request through G.Skill's website; a very painless and quick process. True to their word, G.SKill honor(ed)s their lifetime warranty, and turnaround time was surprisingly quick. Within a little over a week between filing the RMA, and shipping back and forth, I received my replacement modules. For this I am giving G.Skill 5 eggs for their outstanding service for standing by their warranty (and still great product, regardless of the bad module). I will continue to purchase their products in the future.

Cons: Only con is that the original RAM had failed, but that has been rectified thanks to G.Skill's great service!

Overall Review: G.Skill stands by their products.

Excellent Quality Power Supply

PC Power & Cooling Silencer MKIII Series 500 Watt 80+ Bronze Semi-Modular Active PFC Industrial Grade ATX PC Power Supply (PPCMK3S500)

Pros: Modular design helps reduce wire clutter and improve cable management.

Cons: None as of this moment.

Overall Review: It is now May 2020, and this power supply is still going strong after 8 years of use, and 4 different systems. It's currently powering an i5-4430S + GeForce GTX 750Ti SC setup and have yet to run into trouble. Still a great product if you can find it! I have owned this power supply for well over 3 years now and have yet to experience any issues. Fan continues to run quietly, and keeps my system running stable. Will definitely buy another PC P&C product again.

EVGA GeForce 9800 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card 512-P3-N975-AR
EVGA GeForce 9800 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card 512-P3-N975-AR

Pros: Chews through STALKER on maxed-out settings with sufficient, playable framerates, even in PCIe x8 mode. Low-profile design. No need to worry about that gigantic heatsink blocking an extra slot - See below.

Cons: Keep in mind, however, this card is LONG (~7 1/2" in length), so make sure there is ample room between card and hard drive cage!

Overall Review: If you are in doubt, there have been some concerns regarding whether or not PCIe 2.0 cards are backwards compatible with older 1.1 and 1.0 PCIe slots - This card WILL run in a 1.0 slot.

Pros: Quiet. Smooth. Keeps the system running cool during idle times and under heavy loads. I would highly recommend this product to others.

Cons: None that I have experienced. Heatsink might be a bit large for some motherboard layouts.

Overall Review: The heatsink itself is quite large, so be wary of nearby capacitors and other obstructions.
