Works as it should

Logitech B100 Corded Mouse – Wired USB Mouse for Computers and laptops, for Right or Left Hand Use, Black
Logitech B100 Corded Mouse – Wired USB Mouse for Computers and laptops, for Right or Left Hand Use, Black

Pros: Comfortable, smooth operation, had it for years and doesn't show signs of breaking, low price, buttons don't stick, solid construction, simple, gets the job done

Cons: This is the one reason why I dislike this mouse, the mouse wheel makes very loud clicks and it's annoying.

Overall Review: This is a rather small mouse, my hands are too big for it but I guess I'm used to it so it doesn't bother me. This is simply a mouse, there are no fancy lights, bells, and whistles.

Does what a monitor should and does it well

Pros: The monitor is aesthetically pleasing, both physically and the visuals it produces. The colors and brightness are fine and require no adjustment, although you can if you want to. I have experienced no ghosting or any other funky effects of that sort. The monitor responds fast and is an overall great monitor. The angle can be adjusted up and down easily and the viewing angle is also really good. The construction is solid and sturdy. There are two draw backs however, one of them prompting me to remove one egg.

Cons: Con number one, which to me isn't a big deal at all, is the menu interface. It is not very user friendly or pretty. However like I said this isn't much of a drawback to me because the only time I used the menu is when turning up the volume for the first time. That brings me to the second con, which does bother me quite a bit at times. The speakers: with the monitor, master, and application volumes all the way up, are pretty quiet. The sound quality isn't bad at all, it's just that they are quiet and can be hard to hear. However if you have headphones it shouldn't be a problem.

Overall Review: It is rather small. I got this for my very first build assuming 24 inches would be bigger than it really is, but that's my fault. I am still satisfied with this monitor and it's great.

Fantastic case

ENERMAX Ostrog GT ECA3280A-BL Black / Blue Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: This is the case that I used for my first build, and I am nothing but satisfied with it! There is plenty of room, both for your components and for cable management. The edges are also rounded off so you don't cut anything. The two frontal intake fans are very quiet and have beautiful LED's that are not too bright or dim, and they can be toggled on/off. The side window allows for people to take a gander at your machine, and If you have a LED strip it looks amazing. The case itself looks awesome both internally and externally. I also love the slide and lock system for the drives, it makes things so much easier. The overall construction is solid and sturdy. There are also no annoying logos slapped all over the case. The case comes with 3 fans, and many mounts if you need more cooling. The case also comes with lots of zip and twist ties. I used up almost all of them and I still have left overs! The case also features USB 3.0 and has solid airflow. The drive cages are also removable, and no screw drivers or tools are needed for anything. This case also looks so much better in person, in the pictures it looks kind of cheap. I got the blue one and in the pictures the blue frame circling the two intake fans looks too bright and ugly, however in person it is so much better and not as vibrant. I got this case and all it's features for only $50! My case budget was $100 and non of the other cases were as good as this.

Cons: I have experienced no problems with this case.
