Pros: Works as expected. Profiler software works great for games that need help mapping. I read some pretty poor reviews and after trying precision car racing games like Grid 2 among other games, mine is flawless. I would buy again

Cons: No obvious issues or flaws. Software can be a bit tough but it has alot of options and capabilities

Pros: Not much other than it looks ok. Aluminum with a side window and blue leds on the fans.

Cons: Too many to list. Fan controler cuts fans off to 0% Absurd design. Thick metal grills that are apparently for asthetics all rattle and fit poorly in a sandwiched config. had to tear them all out to get minimal use out of this thing. Fan hits on things when turned up, poor construction and components.

Overall Review: I would not buy this junk again. I thought a company in the area might be the way to go but stick with the best names on this part.

Pros: Placement of mute, volume, overall size

Cons: Errors in typing, glitches, 35% rubber dome keys, cheap keycaps, poor customer service.

Overall Review: Item is pure junk. I read all the reviews mostly after buying this directly from Corsair for half of retail. Brand new keyboard started exhibiting odd behavior almost immediately. This item was treated flawlessly with only gentle usage. The very latest firmware update was successfully applied and did not change the faults. I get the same things described regularly, phantom keypresses, key ghosting, just plain unusable. The 1/3 rubber dome keys are a horrible experience, you can get some kind of flow going on the mechanical keys, them bam, you hit a spongy hard rubber dome and it almost hurts your joints, its awful and an absolute deal breaker. The keyboard is aluminum and stores static that never discharges, it just loads up the board inside and causes permanent faults. If you email Corsair, you get no response. If you call them you wait on hold, then get someone who will promptly put you on hold to check with the one person who knows whats to be done for the day. To sum it up this keyboard was shipped to me in error to begin with, the incompetence is glaring. I have used Corsair for ages in dozens of computer builds, I consider their ram trustworthy and reliable, but i would NEVER buy any kind of peripheral, or item where RMA service may be needed. How do you release a keyboard that does phantom keystrokes and quirks at any given moment? I have an old Compaq keyboard with Cherry Blues that has survived for 15 years, too bad it only has a ps/2 connector. I expected a real mechanical keyboard, this is the appearance of quality with junk chinese design and construction

Pros: Works if you dont try to apply their recommended firmware update

Cons: Worst! Rude! non-responsive customer service in the industry period. I have never been treated like this in any online purchasing experience. I would not buy another product from these people if it was the best reviewed and only source. I was a long time customer of Zalman but it only took one interaction with one of their "managers" over the phone to turn me away for life. They release firmware that bricks the drive then they fight you tooth and nail to refuse a replacement. I had to get their phone number to get ANY contact. Then it took 7 yes 7 months to get my replacement. They flat were not going to send it without me fighting them after they had agreed to and received the bad drive with delivery confirmation. AVOID ZALMAN AS A WHOLE!

Pros: A few good hours of gameplay as you level up but goes to hell quickly

Cons: This is just a bad game plain and simple. Check public reviews at Meta and Amazn and save your hard earned money. I am ashamed I gave the publisher $60. THIS IS A PAY TO PLAY GAME THAT MAKES YOU BUY ADDITIONAL ITEMS TO PROGRESS INTO THE HARDEST LEVEL.

Pros: -Got the better 240m video card -Full size keyboard with number pad -Power plug makes solid stable connection -4 usb ports (esata doubles as additional USB connection) Dark midnight blue case looks attractive and is very dark -DVD multidrive

Cons: -Low resolution screen is outdated and lacking in every way -5400rpm HDD is the true downfall of this system -fingerprint magnet (case, keys, screen cover) -cheap case, thin plastic, sharp unfinished edges, flexes -very poor battery life, battery on the cheap side 2 hrs max -extreme bloatware -port placement not user friendly too forward on the sides -touchpad buttons are not quality design and lack usability

Overall Review: Popping crackling sound not fixed with any drivers anywhere. The latest one on Acer's site takes out the microphone. The poor sound popping and crackling make this laptop worthless. Battlefield Bad Company 2 unplayable on lowest settings. Was forced to return this laptop due to sound system defect. Latest driver direct from Realtek makes it "better" but far from fixed.
