Excellent Mid-range Card

Pros: 2 Gb on-board RAM Supports Direct X 12 PCIe 3.0
Cons: None, so far
Overall Review: I bought this to replace my HD 5770, that was showing it's age. While I don't play any games that require massive frame rates, I do stream a lot of video. So far this card has performed in far excess of my expectations. The only problem that I had was actually with the rebate offer. NewEgg states that it's a $20 rebate, but upon filling out the information needed for the rebate, the rebate site says that it's actually a $10 rebate. Since rebates have nothing to do with the cards performance, I didn't take off any eggs.
Junk

Pros: None
Cons: A pile of junk. Don't waste your money on this.
Overall Review: Doesn't play 90% of DVD's. Product failed after 6 months. Customer service is a joke.
Good Budget Case

Pros: Toolless design, all black interior, good airflow, can hold up to 5 120mm fans. Motherboard cutout for aftermarket CPU coolers.
Cons: Lack of dust filters on front and bottom fan vents, cable management can be a nightmare.
Overall Review: I bought this case as a replacement for an older Cooler Master Elite case, whose power switch had failed, so I knew what I was getting into. While the case has filters for the power supply and top fan vents, there's no filters on the bottom or front vents. I cannibalized my old elite case, for it's filters, and zip tied the filters in place. Not perfect but far better then no filter. To clean the top filters will require the removal of any fans mounted there. Cable management can be a nightmare, if you're not using a modular PSU. If you plan your build wisely most extra wires can be hidden behind the HDD cage. I found it easiest to take wire management in steps by first concentrating on the motherboard connections, then the Video card connection and finally the HDD and optical drive connection, bundling and tying off wires as I went. I'm using a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO cooler, it fits but barely. A taller aftermarket CPU cooler won't.
Fairly easy install

Pros: Quiet, comes with all the needed and enough thermal paste in case you make a mistake.
Cons: Ultra tiny print on the instructions as to which mounting holes to use on AM3+ motherboards.
Overall Review: I didn't realize just how loud AMD's stock cooler was until I installed this one. This heatsink is huge and barely fits inside of my Cooler Master Elite 431 plus case.
They work

Pros: They work.
Cons: Minus one star for a complete lack of anything resembling instructions.
Overall Review: There's a plastic seal over the ink outlet after trying to remove it and failing to do so, I finally tried installing the cartridges with the seal intact. It took several tries before the Black and Yellow cartridges were recognized by the printer.
Good Burner, Bad Software

Pros: It's a DVD burner and does the job expected of it
Cons: The included Software CD belongs in the trash, not in the box with the burner.
Overall Review: I'd give the burner 5 stars if it included a better software package. I don't expect a full version of burning software to be included but I do expect something besides trial software and a limited edition that consists of more pop-up ads for the full version then it does of actual features. After I discovered that the limited feature burning software installs a gadget, on your desktop, that's impossible to hide or turn off, I uninstalled the software and threw the CD away.
