What is this, a headphones for ants?

EAGLE TECH Arion Black ET-ARHP100-BK 3.5mm Connector Circumaural Stereo Headphones for Computers / Smartphones / Tablets /MP3 Players
EAGLE TECH Arion Black ET-ARHP100-BK 3.5mm Connector Circumaural Stereo Headphones for Computers / Smartphones / Tablets /MP3 Players

Pros: So. I should have read the reviews for buying these, cause they don't lie. The headphones are like 2/3rd scale headphones. They are small. The cups will not fit over adult ears. But... That's not their fault, its how they were made and it was my fault for not doing good enough research. Anyway the headphones sound fine and are built (fairly) solidly for ~10bux headphones. They're on ears for everyone but a small child, though. Cord is nicely braided. They are reasonably comfortable and adjustable as well.

Cons: Small cups for ants and small children. Could be good if you need a decent set of small cups headphones, though.

Overall Review: I should read reviews before impulse buying. Ah well. They're okay.

Cable is most cabley

Pros: Been looking for a DIN6 PS/2 Cable for my Fanatec shifter that had been lost. Saw another reviewer with a similar wheel who used this cable. Decided to use this cable. Works perfectly.

Cons: It's oldskool beige. Doesn't bother me, could bother some. Does say it's oldskool beige in description, though.

What a beast

Galaxy 68NQH6DN6DXZ GeForce GTX 680 GC 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Galaxy 68NQH6DN6DXZ GeForce GTX 680 GC 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: This 680 runs everything ever, and has been going strong since the end of september. I have only three or four games that even engage full power clocks while using adaptive vsync. Most of my games use less then 50% of the possible speed of this card.

Cons: Had to use software to set the fan control curve. Without the software the fan would run only at 40% max and the card would shoot up to 60c while playing anything at all (even at 20% usage!) I set an aggressive fan curve with 40% at 30c to 100% at 50c with six steps inbetween, the card has never broken 32c since and that was on a very hot day. Its kind of bulky and doesn't have a backplate it didn't make me a sandwich

Overall Review: When I first bought this I was worried about the price, especially compared to the 670. But I wanted the best, and at the time (and the moment) this is the best.

It blows. AIR.

Maxell 190027 Blast Away CA-5 - Air duster
Maxell 190027 Blast Away CA-5 - Air duster

Pros: Compressed air is nicely compressed. Comes with the little red straw. Blows dust away. Wasn't damaged from shipping (see other thoughts)

Cons: Small, but so is the price

Overall Review: Newegg shipped four of these in a box with some paper. If the truck had a bumpy ride or something heavy fell on the box, alot of damage could have been done. Should have been packed with air bags or foam peanuts.

Its a mouse!

Pixxo MO-I133U Black 3 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Optical 800 dpi Mouse
Pixxo MO-I133U Black 3 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Optical 800 dpi Mouse

Pros: Its a mouse, it clicks, it scrolls, it moves around, because its a mouse. Is fairly sensitive, fits my hand nicely, lights up pretty colours, scroll wheel seems good and has a nice click when pushed down.

Cons: Lights stay on as long as usb ports are receiving power, which is always on my pc. Would have liked an option to shut off the leds manually and cycle through solid colours. But for the price whatever.

Nice Router

Rosewill RNX-N300RT, Wireless N300 Wi-Fi Router, IEEE 802.11b/11g/11n, Up to 300Mbps Wireless Data Rates, 2x 5dBi Fixed Antennas, DD-WRT Open Source Support
Rosewill RNX-N300RT, Wireless N300 Wi-Fi Router, IEEE 802.11b/11g/11n, Up to 300Mbps Wireless Data Rates, 2x 5dBi Fixed Antennas, DD-WRT Open Source Support

Pros: Extremely affordable Doesn't heat up alot Good range

Cons: Hardly no instructions, only 300mbps, not dual band

Overall Review: Make sure to reset to factory defaults when using this router as an internet router, then follow the directions to set it up to your ISP. Reboot router then shut it off, reset modem, then turn router on. It would not authenticate otherwise.
