Pros: High capacity. Very high core speed for its price. Very cool; almost never gets hot! Comes with low-profile conversion brackets. Very good bang for your buck!

Cons: Low CUDA core count. Only comes with one screw so if you're going to convert it to a low-profile card, you'll need to find another.

Overall Review: I had purchased an Acer Aspire 3400G desktop from Walmart as an emergency measure in college when my laptop died. The desktop has performed solidly for the past year, but it has felt limited by its weak onboard NVIDIA GeForce 9200 graphics controller. I was looking to squeeze much better performance out of my system, and purchased this. It runs extremely smoothly on ultra high settings in Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Spore, and I bet it can handle Skyrim very well. This card is an amazing value for its price, and not many others on Newegg can boast the same speed and capacity as this. If you're just looking for something to replace an onboard graphics controller when you have a slimline case with a weak PSU, then this is the way to go!

Pros: Easily replaced with Linux? I was able to get the Start Menu back with Classic Shell, but that's not a "Pro" towards the OS itself.

Cons: A tablet interface on a desktop operating system Ugly full-screen Start Screen that takes up the whole screen instead of a corner like the Start Menu Almost all default programs are set to Metro applications Submenus in Metro apps are annoyingly hidden and require a right click or swipe in (This is a HUGE waste of space on any display above 10") Ugly minimalist interface that wastes lots of space (go look at the Metro Twitter app) Tries to lock in the user by enabling Secure Boot by default on OEM systems Tries to have the user use their Microsoft account as the way to log in, hiding the option to use a local PC account as soon as possible. What if your Hotmail account gets hacked? Snap in of Metro apps is nowhere near as good as the multi-window multitasking that has been in use since the origin of the GUI and limits you to two applications at a time

Overall Review: Whoever thought THIS was a good idea should be fired. The world is not and never will be ready for a full touch-screen operating system on desktops and laptops. The reason touch exists is to remove the reliance on physical hardware (such as keyboards and mice) on devices so that they can be even more portable than a traditional laptop. In the few months I have been using Windows 8, not ONE single aspect of the system has made me say "Gee, I wish this was a touch screen; I'd love to reach out and use my finger on that instead!" Not to mention that touch screens of any decent size are still prohibitively expensive. The new UI is a distraction and a hindrance. When I want to open up a new application, I don't want to look away from what I'm doing; I want to keep looking at it so I know what I need to do and open next. The prior Start Menu was a handy way to get to the software and files you needed without being distracted from what you were doing. As mentioned above in the cons list, Windows 8 tries to cram this new experience down your throat as much as possible. Trying to open a file? I hope you've configured your software under Default Programs, because almost everything is pointed to a Metro app, which most of the time is an inferior experience that wastes space on a large display for the sake of being pretty, with less features than its equivalent desktop application. Want to actually use a Metro app in a size worthy of your screen? No thanks, all you can do is choose to snap it in to take up 25% of your screen or over 75% of your screen. There is no windowing of a Metro app without third party software. Also, you can only have two non-desktop apps open at a time, which is really limiting. The desktop is also changed as well to accommodate this beast. There's no Start Menu; you touch or hover over a corner to use the "Charms" menu or see what Metro apps you have open. That's another problem with the whole system; everything is hidden and requires a swipe in or right click! On any screen over 10", there is no need to do this! Why is it hidden when I have more than enough room on a 20" 1600x900 pixel display? It's lunacy! The speed enhancements, the native USB 3.0 support, the built in Windows Defender suite, all of this is rendered meaningless by an operating system that throws away usability and user friendliness in hopes of trying to squeeze into the tablet and smartphone market. Just because those two markets are the fastest growing segment of tech does not mean that the desktop and laptop platforms are dead. To kill off the features that make a desktop or laptop a productivity powerhouse to try and force users to join the new mobile paradigm is a stupid move. Users don't like being told what is right for them. The worst part? This is the future of Windows. Microsoft isn't going to go back! Do yourself a favor and just give a distribution of Linux a try. Burn one to a DVD and install it; you may find you like a lot of features

Pros: VERY Cheap. Comes with SATA and power cables. Runs surprisingly cool.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I bought one of these when I decided 1 TB wasn't enough to hold all my virtual machines, software, and media collection any more. The price was so cheap that I didn't see any qualms with purchasing it, and since BIOS can only support up to 2 TB without software enhancements, I decided it was the best option at this price. The speed is noticably faster than my old WD 5200 RPM 1 TB green drive. While nowhere near as fast as an SSD or a hybrid drive, until the prices of high capacity SSDs come down to reasonably levels, there will always be a place for traditional platter-based hard drives. Some people simply need capacity over speed, and I am one of these people, though I do plan on buying a Samsung 840 SSD in the near future. The drive runs surprisingly cool. Even before I put a front fan in my PC case to cool my array, I was shocked to find it was no warmer than my WD green drive, and when I put in the aforementioned fan, I have no issues with heat at all any more. You simply can't beat the price and performance of this drive! I plan on buying at least two more; one for my NAS and one so I can have a dual boot, dual hard drive setup of Windows 8 and Arch Linux. I have had this drive for several months now, and there have been no issues. And at this price range, I'm not so concerned anyway.

Pros: USB 3.0 support Tough metal case Cooling fan Stylish construction; this won't look bad on your desk! Awesome looking blue LEDs They even ship a screwdriver to open it up!

Cons: The blue LEDs may not mesh well with your current setup, especially if you have any LEDs that aren't blue. AC adapter may not be for everyone; this is required for the higher power draw of a full size desktop hard drive. SATA III is not supported.

Overall Review: I recently upgraded my PC to a 128 GB SSD and a 7200 RPM 2 TB HDD, which left me with an old WD 1 TB Green Drive I didn't want in my array any more. I got this so I could use it for backups. The case is a tough metal construction, with a grating on the front to allow for air flow, along with a fan on the side to keep the drive cool during use. Blue LEDs will mesh well with an PC that has blue LEDs set up. This enclosure is fast, allowing for connection of SATA I and II drives with a USB 3 external interface. A foot is shipped with this unit, as it is intended to be left on your desk, never really intended to be unplugged. If you're not going to be using it, a power switch on the back allows you to shut off the unit to conserve electricity. Overall, I am very pleased with this unit, and would recommend it to anyone else who wants a good reliable enclosure. The enclosure does not feel cheap; quite the contrary, it feels quite luxurious! The cherry on top was that I was expecting to have to fetch a screwdriver to open it, but no, SABRENT packed one with the unit! I was so pleased to see this little addition, and definitely recommend their products to anyone.

Pros: Bright and colorful blue LEDs. Really cool fans temperature-wise. Whisper quiet! You get three for the price of two.

Cons: Screws are a little difficult to install. No connectors for fan headers on your motherboard; only molex connectors.

Overall Review: In anticipation of getting and cooling an AMD FX 8350 one day in the future, and to add a little more air flow throughout my case, particularly onto my Nvidia GeForce GT 610 card which wasn't getting much if any airflow to it, I purchased this three-pack. Normally, you pay a little over 8 dollars a piece for these, which would have totaled over 24 dollars, but buying this allowed me to get three for the price of two. Best decision I could have made. The LEDs on these fans are really bright and very colorful, and will look good inside any case that will support them and where they can be displayed.The fans run extremely cool, keeping things nice and chilly inside, yet they never run really loud, not even with all three running alongside my Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus CPU fan and the single stock 120mm fan that came preinstalled in my case. Simply put, if you want to add much more cooling to your rig without investing in a potentially expensive liquid cooling setup, this is the way to go.

Pros: Amazing ventilation; lots of places to mount case fans. Big case with lots of room for a full ATX motherboard. LOTS of drive bays; four 5.25" optical drive mounts, four 3.5" hard drive mounts. Tool-less installation of drives; uses latches to lock in place. Decent PSU included. Sharp and powerful looking design.

Cons: 8-pin CPU cable is a bit short.

Overall Review: I was looking to begin an upgrade to my PC, which was a store-bought Mini-ITX PC with a limited 220W PSU. Unfortunately, since the PC did not have a slot for a motherboard connection plate (the holes for the ports were drilled into the case), I could not continue using my current case. I got this case because it seemed like it had lots of room and a decent prepackaged PSU. The case is big enough for a full ATX motherboard and has amazing airflow. There is room for two 240mm fans on the top and another 240mm fan on the side of the case, and the case itself supports liquid cooling, so if you intend to overclock your processor or GPU, you will be able to keep your system ice cool. Two USB ports, one being 2.0 and the other 3.0, are included on top, giving you easy access to plug in a mobile device or external storage. The only real problem I felt is that the 8-pin CPU cable is a bit short, and it may take a bit of a stretch to connect it depending on your motherboard. Other than that, I feel there is no better value for your buck; it combines a built in power supply which saves money and is actually decent at what it does, it has amazing ventilation with the capacity to add in even better cooling, and it has tons of room to accommodate a large motherboard and a large amount of optical and hard drives. Definitely look into this for your system!
