Good Card

ZOTAC ZT-90502-10P GeForce GTX 980 Ti ArcticStorm 6GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card
ZOTAC ZT-90502-10P GeForce GTX 980 Ti ArcticStorm 6GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card

Pros: 980ti with air and water cooling potential out the box. Runs cool on air. Great looking card with solid cooler and back plate. Have not tried to water cool and will update when attached to my loop.

Cons: Barb Fittings may not be for some. They are non-standard and cannot be easily changed to compression fittings. Per Zotac these are M18 threads - this seems a bit big to me, I have not measured the yet. The lack of compression fittings may limit SLI but they can be moved to top position if needed. Moving fitting does not void warranty unless a leak causes the card to fail (Again per Zotac Tech Support).

Overall Review: Good for air or water cooling single card set up not sure how the water cooling set-up will fair in SLI. -1 egg for on standard barb fittings. Responsive tech support. Have had great results with Zotac products in past.

Good product but ...

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium + Anti-Exploit Premium - 3 PCs / 1 Year
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium + Anti-Exploit Premium - 3 PCs / 1 Year

Pros: Malwarebytes same as pro but without the lifetime license. Anti-exploit likely helpful but not sure if makes a difference. 3 pc's make price more attractive but not as attractive as Malwarebytes Pro Easy to install. Worked out the box.

Cons: Poor product support (See below).

Overall Review: Its not Malwarebytes Pro - granted its no longer available. The yearly renewal is a down side, given that this is a secondary virus checker. However, Malwarebytes Premium and Pro are excellent products. The cost is reasonable given its spread over three machines. I bought this for new laptop. Figured I'd try the anti-exploit option to see it made a difference, the cost of was nominal for the extra software so I gave it a try. Both the package and Newegg Advertise that it includes both Malwarebytes Premium and Anti-exploit premium. Mine only had licences for the trial of Malwarebytes Premium. I am not sure if it is glitch with a new product or not. I contacted the company via email received a note that it would be 4 business days before I could expect a response. Its really a 4-5 egg product with 1 egg service. Likely will stick with Premium in the future, unless I can come across some unused copies of Pro.

Great Fan for price plus now comes with 140mm adapters

SilverStone FHP-141 140mm (120mm mounting holes) Case Fan
SilverStone FHP-141 140mm (120mm mounting holes) Case Fan

Pros: 2 settings both move air. Power is great and noise is tolerable. Moves air with good pressure. Durable with good fit and finish. Includes black sleeved cable with pwm splitter for radiators or multiple fans. Version 2 comes with 140mm adapters, showed up when I thought I was just getting original no extra cost.

Cons: 38mm wide limits placement in smaller spaces and cases but you know that going in and that is part of why the fan works so well.

Overall Review: Great for case, air and liquid cooling. Just make sure it will fir your radiator. I have not tried the new 140mm mounting on a 140 or 280 yet. Very reasonable priced for performance. Newegg still lists the 1st version without the 140mm adapter feet but I have order them and been pleasantly surprised. It would be nice they updated the listing so you know which one is coming. I prefer V2 with the 140mm feet.

Beast of Router

NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band WiFi Router, Gigabit Ethernet, Compatible with Amazon Echo/Alexa (R8000)
NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band WiFi Router, Gigabit Ethernet, Compatible with Amazon Echo/Alexa (R8000)

Pros: I purchased this last year when our old router failed. I had to get it locally due to immediate need so I bought it from local big box retailer. (Newegg is cheaper). This is absolutely the most reliable router I have had. No problems running 24/7 for over a year in house with 6-8 people depending on the month 4 teenagers and everyone with mobile devices - phones/laptops, 2 game systems and 2 desktops. At peak we have 12+ devices attached to the three networks at a time and we have no bandwidth problems, The secret is to assign different devices to different networks so you do not get bottle necking. I covers our entire 2800 sq ft house upper and lower floors with no dead spots. Net Genie is easy to set up and the parental controls let you limit access to internet content and set time blocks. Overall I am 100% satisfied with this router.

Cons: Pricey, not needed for everyone.

Overall Review: Look for sales, update firmware when available to keep it current. You get what you pay for - a reliable, high end, high speed router.

Nice Case

NZXT H630 CA-H630F-M1  Matte Black Ultra Tower Silent Case Includes 1 x 200mm Front, 1 x 140mm Rear 2 x USB 3.0 2 x USB 2.0 SD Card Reader
NZXT H630 CA-H630F-M1 Matte Black Ultra Tower Silent Case Includes 1 x 200mm Front, 1 x 140mm Rear 2 x USB 3.0 2 x USB 2.0 SD Card Reader

Pros: This is a large case that is nicely finished. Its easy to install all components and they are logically laid out. Hard drive bays remove to the cable management side of the case which makes swapping a hard drive easier since you only have to open that side of the case rather than both sides. The two SSD mounts are very convenient and do not force you use a HD bay. This means you can have 2 SSD's and up to 8 HD's, plus your DVD drive (Yes the case has two but read the cons.) It's very quiet, with 4x200mm fans and 2x140 fans. The white LEDS on the back can be shut off if you no wish to have them light the I/O plate. Cable management is easy and the case comes with more than enough zip ties to keep cables in place. Overall I am very satisfied with the first NZXT case I have bought.

Cons: Cases are about trade offs and this one is no exception. The biggest issue is that with 2x200mm NZXT fans in the top mounts the top 5.25 bay does not accommodate a DVD drive. It may take something shorter like a full sized car reader (if the SD reader that comes with the case is not enough for you) or a fan controller (The case has one of these too but you cannot regulate the speeds.) The top and front panels are difficult to remove not sure if this is con or good workmanship. However, it is quite difficult to remove the front/top panels to install extra fans. This could make them prone to breakage if you removed often but apart from installing optional fans there is no reason to remove them at all. No wheels so if are going to load this baby up to full capacity it will be heavy. Overall none of these are insurmountable or need an egg take off. I'll take these cons for this great looking, functional, quiet case.

  Great Pack

Pros: Lots of room. Holds lap top all accessories, phone charger, iPad and accessories, plus still can use to bring stuff home from office. Durable still looks and works like new after a year of daily use. Good padding if the bag happens to fall. Great for trips when need to bring extra stuff.

Cons: None really.
