Solid and Screaming

ASRock X79 Extreme4 LGA 2011 Intel X79 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
ASRock X79 Extreme4 LGA 2011 Intel X79 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Paired with an i7-3820 with no problems. Overclocking is dangerously easy! This was an investment in a long-term build meant to last a while with games and CAD. Highly recommended! Combines well with: i7-3820 GSkill Ripjaws x series quad channel 16gb EVGA GTX-670 FTW Intel LGA2011 cpu water cooler Have not used RAID options at all.

Cons: I have always wished motherboards and their software had more fan control ports and more detailed fan control options. Some cases can hold 8 or more fans these days. I suppose the chipset probably needs a fan unto itself, but my money is on that as the first thing to break.

NZXT Phantom PHAN-003RD Red White Finish w/Red Trim Steel / Plastic Enthusiast ATX Full Tower Computer Case

Pros: Fantastic case. The attention to detail in the design and layout becomes very clear as you assemble. Everything fits into place nicely, and it has plenty of room. Equipment used: Asrock Extreme4 LGA 2011 PC Power Silencer MKII 950w Intel enclosed liquid cpu cooler for LGA2011 fits fine in rear fan space GSkill Ripjaws X Series Quad Channel EVGA GTX 670 FTW

Cons: None! Much more than I expected out of a case at this price.

Overall Review: My wife calls it The Transformer.

RMA

ASUS BX700 White Bluetooth Wireless Laser Mouse
ASUS BX700 White Bluetooth Wireless Laser Mouse

Pros: Liked it while it worked.

Cons: Connection constantly dropped with my Eee PC. Finally dropped and never got a response again. Windows kept finding it, then losing it. Tried new drivers from asus, batteries, pairing order, everything.

Overall Review: This is my first bluetooth mouse and I'm pretty annoyed with it, only has to do one thing, why can't it do it? Going back to wired.
