Most Favorable Review

Big and pretty

Acer 22" WSXGA+ LCD Monitor 5 ms D-Sub, DVI X223Wbd
Acer 22" WSXGA+ LCD Monitor 5 ms D-Sub, DVI X223Wbd

Pros: Huge. The stand is fine as long as your desk doesn't shake. It's very elegant and high-tech looking.

Cons: Faulty power switch. Can't turn the monitor off, although it will go into sleep mode once i turn off my computer.

Overall Review: I'm debating on whether or not to get the switch fixed. The monitor is otherwise perfect, and I don't really need to turn it off...

Most Critical Review

Junk

ZALMAN ZM-CS4A Socket 1366 Clip Support Kit for CNPS9500/9700
ZALMAN ZM-CS4A Socket 1366 Clip Support Kit for CNPS9500/9700

Pros: Would be ok if it fits

Cons: Doesn't even fit my asus motherboard. at least it was free and the socket clip kit that came in the zalman fan box works fine.

Best for the money

EVGA GeForce 9600 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 512-P3-N863-TR
EVGA GeForce 9600 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 512-P3-N863-TR

Pros: Got this card with my new system build. Together with my quad-core 2.83 ghz card, and my 8 gigs of ram, it will run Crysis on high settings! Yes, this mid-level card will run Crysis on high!

Cons: Crysis settings go to very-high. Won't measure up to that

Overall Review: Extremely satisfied with my purchase.

More than I expected

ASUS P5Q Pro Turbo LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASUS P5Q Pro Turbo LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Awesome board at a lowish price. BUILT for overclocking. The driver cd actually comes with 2 different programs to assist you with it.

Cons: I had to mount my hard drive with a special bracket so I could SLI. Otherwise it wouldn't fit with the way the PCI slots were positioned : \

Overall Review: I'm sure you know, but be careful with overclocking! I got the blue screen of death 4 times in a row by turning it up too much....... woops

Says what it's supposed to do

Pros: Works quickly and efficiently. I already burnt 5 dvd+r's with it and they are all flawless.

Cons: It can be a little bit loud when it reads things, but while burning dvds its fine.

Works Great

RAIDMAX APEX ATX-802B Black SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
RAIDMAX APEX ATX-802B Black SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: The fan on the back works pretty well and is quiet... This case, although it isn't flashy looks pretty cool in a subtle way.

Cons: The USB ports on the front are upside down... It isn't that bad, just annoying always having to turn it over because I forget which icon has to be on the upside on my cords.

Overall Review: People say it's flimsy, but after you get your computer built, at least for me, it won't move from my desk, so sturdiness of the case isn't that important.
