Pros: With my new computer build, I went with a very large computer desk. It has hutches that go above the desk. While I was moving everything around in my computer room, one of the hutches fell off of the desk and crashed right on my new gaming pc. I thought for sure that there would be a pile of scrap laying under that hutch. However, to my surprise, this case saved everything. Nothing was damaged!! The case has a small scratch on it but thats about it. When you're looking for a case, remember... A case is meant to protect your internal parts. This case saved me A LOT of money. Thanks Corsair for this wonderful rock solid piece!

Cons: None, everything works as advertised

Pros: I can get to the desktop that I'm accoustomed to seeing. Seems like a good fit for someone that wants to connect a tablet or phone.

Cons: I was building a gaming system and wasn't expecting such a huge change in the overall operation and appearance of windows. I wanted the latest version so that it would be updated for a long time. Unfortunately, Its just sooooo different from Windows 7 that it took me a while to even figure out how to shut down my computer. After a couple hours of fiddling with it, I have it set up to where I'm happy. But if I had it all to do again, I would've went with Windows 7. 8.1 feels like it was rushed and is very clunky compared to what I'm used to.

Pros: This card does anything you want it to do as far as gaming goes. Its quiet, stays cool and provides excellent graphics.

Cons: It covers up my cool looking dragon on my MSI motherboard chipset.

Overall Review: Couldn't of been happier to spend the extra money on this card. There's a reason why MSI is one of the best out there!

Pros: For the cooling that this set up provides, its amazingly quiet. CPU temps never reach over 35 degrees. Probably my favorite peice of my new build. Well worth the extra money!

Cons: absolutely none

Overall Review: I was a bit intimidated with this heat sink since its so large and this was my first computer build. However, it goes together really easy and the instructions are very well written. Don't shy away from this product, even if you are a first time builder. Make sure to check compatability on their website to determine if your RAM will fit. I had to go with a low profile Corsair Vengeance. Great, Great, GREAT!!!!! nom nom...
