AGPtek 7”-inch Android 4.2 8GB Touchscreen Tablet PC w/ Free HDMI Cable - W-iFi, Quad Core HD Cortex A7, 1GB RAM, 1.5GHZ, HDMI, G-sensor, Google Play Pre-Installed

Pros: pretty fast tablet for $99, antutu marks at 12,500 after rooting it and using nova launcher... google play compatible, quad core, 8gb, stuffed a 32gb card in it and use lucky patcher to install apps to the external sdcard so i never run out of space when i install stuff, runs six guns with 4xmsaa on flawlessly, no hicups...

Cons: initially its kind of slow for what it is, lots of bloatware installed, froze and crashed once in a while, once rooted and using nova launcher its super fast and seamless with 0 bloatware, this is a must do, stock the device isnt bad for $99 but once you do this is totally comparable to $200-$300 tab's...

Overall Review: to root your tp718aq, google seach for tp714aq root walkthrough, rooted in 5 minutes literally, the 714aq uses the same zip file as the 718aq... the GPU is amazine its a dual core GPU, and the gpu itself scores much higher then most tab's and phones that antutu around 14 to17K....

Dell Venue 8 Android case

SUPCASE Dell Venue 8 (Android) Slim Fit Folio Leather Case (Black) - Flip Cover and Stand, Elastic Hand Strap, Not Fit Dell Venue 7/Dell Venue 8 Pro (Windows 8.1) Tablet
SUPCASE Dell Venue 8 (Android) Slim Fit Folio Leather Case (Black) - Flip Cover and Stand, Elastic Hand Strap, Not Fit Dell Venue 7/Dell Venue 8 Pro (Windows 8.1) Tablet

Pros: great case very well made.... fits excellent and all the holes for cameras and buttons are in the proper spot...

Cons: it doesn't really sit up properly on a flat surface..... they didn't make the stand part of it correctly, this is why I took away 1 star. if your going to make a stand make it right or don't make it have one at all, that way im not disappointed when I get it for that feature then it doesn't work properly and falls over half the time...

Dell Venue 8

Dell Venue 8  - Intel Atom Z2580 Dual Core 2GB RAM 16GB Flash 8.0" Tablet Android 4.2, Black Color (Ven8-1999BLK)
Dell Venue 8 - Intel Atom Z2580 Dual Core 2GB RAM 16GB Flash 8.0" Tablet Android 4.2, Black Color (Ven8-1999BLK)

Pros: what can I say 8", 2gb ram, 16gb internal, smoking dual core cpu that keeps up 100% with a s4 snapdragon... very sturdy and well built... nice battery life... well im a seasoned Linux and Android user. this tablet is amazing for the money. honestly its a stable and snappy as a brand new gen ipad if not more so. just as fast as my nexus 7 2013 but way less buggy. end result if your not needing a 100% root method and custom roms this is the best budget tablet alive... I have to have root for romtoolbox pro and titanium backup... so for me root is a must have...

Cons: no proper root available yet, and probably never any roms will be available... you can root the 4.2.2 if you don't update it but even then I saw some users still couldn't get root properly... and as I said definitely no custom roms... these aren't cons to a basic user... but they are a massive deal breaker for me, but the one I bought wasn't for me so no biggy...

Decent buy...........

Westinghouse 32" 720p 60Hz LED-LCD HDTV LD-3235

Pros: Decent picture, good backlight, i am extremly techy and this is a great buy for the money, made for a awesome pc monitor, went from a vizio 22" led to this 32" led both 60hz, and skyrim and arkham city have never looked better, sure its lower res then my vizio but on pc doesnt matter thats what AA is for.

Cons: after about two days one bad pixel showed up very small and off to the left lower corner so no real issue with it yet, common thing with lcd's though, ive seen it in all brands no matter how expensive.

Overall Review: the bad reviews you see are on all brand tv's at all prices, just read the reviews on any tv, monitor, motherboard, power supply, hard drive, ect. *all electronics are a gamble thats why they have warranty.... if your that worried then youll never buy anything, me ive spent about $150,000 thru newegg since 2002, they are so good i have based a small computer tech company off them.

Pros: Good Case, better looking them most even expensive ones...

Cons: Ive bought a few of these cases and this last one the power button didnt work, because time was a big factor i didnt send it back and just used the reset as the power.

Great Crad

SAPPHIRE Radeon X850XT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card 100106SR-RD

Pros: Great card for the money... Easy fan fix, and htis is why this card is cheap.

Cons: only for techy people... GPU fan was locked at 5%, ati tray tools takes care of that though...

Overall Review: overclocking is stupid and only kills preformance on GPU's CPU's and everything.... if you want better, buy better... its as simple as that!!!!!
