CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Extreme Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm
CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Extreme Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm

Pros: Definitely helps cool things down. Relatively easy install and the firmware to control it is nifty. Saw dramatic temp drops going from a box cooler. So far I am very pleased.

Cons: Instruction manual is a joke, with loads of errors. Also, the backplate was extremely loose when I went to install, so I had to go hunting for a set of washers to put in place to get it snug. Make sure your case is big enough above your mobo to fit the radiator and fans. I can get the radiator, but my fans are out on top. My fault for buying a RaidMax. other than that I can't think of anything I dislike about this.

Overall Review: Case: RAIDMAX Cobra Z ATX-502WBR Board: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. Z97-A CPU: 3.55 gigahertz Intel Core i5-4690 HDD: 3tb via two hard disks GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 OS: Windows 7 Ult

Find something else.

Delta AFB1212GHE-CF00 120 mm Case cooler
Delta AFB1212GHE-CF00 120 mm Case cooler

Pros: Push's a whole bunch of air, when and if it works.

Cons: One was DOA, the other had broken corners during and couldn't get a proper seating when fastened down. That's more USPS's fault, but there was no protection in the packaging, so newegg definitely dropped the ball with that. Just threw two fans in a box and kicked it out the door. Noisy as all get-up, too. So unless you keep your fan outside or in a sound proof box...good luck. May be able to cut the noise down with some headphones, but definitely not good for constant use.

Overall Review: When these do actually work it pushes enough air to make a wind tunnel. But unless you're putting a server in a nevada desert and you can't afford an air-con. well...You get the picture.

EVGA 01G-P3-1556-KR GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) FPB 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Item was shipped in a very prompt manner. Install was easy, and quick. I am able to play games like Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, Team fortress 2, Lord of the Rings Online, and many, many more on MAX settings. Comes with it's own overclocking software that is easy to use (just be careful not to over do it). I play with default clocking settings because overclocking isn't needed on my end.

Cons: Didn't get the UPC code for my mail in rebate. I didn't buy two of them..

Overall Review: My Graphics and Gaming Graphics ratings went to a 6.7 out of 7.9. Very good for the price and also SLI capable. If you're looking for outstanding performance and are on a budget, like me, then look no further! This is the video card for you!
