Most Favorable Review

good card for $25

ENCORE Video Tuner & Capture Card ENLTV-FM PCI Interface
ENCORE Video Tuner & Capture Card ENLTV-FM PCI Interface

Pros: installed easily. if you read the manual you can't fail, even if it is in broken english. tuner is pretty good and the radio has a fine tune ability which I find useful

Cons: software sucks. drivers could be better. not it's fault but I couldn't use my digital out on my sound card (aux and digi are the same connector)

Overall Review: works on amd...I've never heard of a pci card not being compatable with a certain brand cpu..

Most Critical Review

DOA

PC CHIPS M848A (V5.0) 462(A) SiS 746FX ATX AMD Motherboard
PC CHIPS M848A (V5.0) 462(A) SiS 746FX ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: wouldn't know

Cons: first, it was a day late. second, it was DOA. I've tried two power supplies, and it does nothing when I try to power it up. I've ruled out anything else that could be the problem.

Overall Review: this is a big problem. I'm now two days late in getting this pc back to it's customer (I run a pc repair shop), and now I have to waste more time rma'ing this thing.

not the worst, but close

BELKIN E9K3000 Wireless N300 Router

Pros: hm...pretty blue light?

Cons: was fine for about three weeks. now it loses internet connection at least once a day. I updated the firmware hoping it would resolve the issue, but nope. I have to reset the thing to get it back online, which is really annoying if your router's on the opposite side of the house... no dd-wrt support!

Overall Review: I bought this as an emergency replacement for my linksys wrt54gs v.1 that decided to die on me. I feel I've wasted my money. lesson learned. my next router will be an asus (any of them. compared to belkin, you can't go wrong), with dd-wrt!

good card. w t f ups?!

ASUS GeForce 7200GS 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card EN7200GS/HTD/256M
ASUS GeForce 7200GS 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card EN7200GS/HTD/256M

Pros: runs well in vista ultimate (x86 and x64); gets a 3.1 on the gaming scale, so expect to have some fun with it. also flawless in xp x64. I know all this because I just went through all my install discs (for non-related issues. was screwing with my tuner card.)

Cons: I ordered this new year's eve and didn't get it till 1/7. now, I'm no mathamagician, but 8>3. I should not have to wait an extra 5 days on 3 day select.

Overall Review: if you live in the southeast, say florida, go with fedex. the extra 10 bucks will go far. my friend is sending his case and hard drive back because they were both dropped. man, I remember when fedex 7 day was the standard here...screw ups.
