Most Favorable Review

Excellent value, includes a DRAM cache, but you have to install the heatsink yourself

Team Group T-FORCE G70 PRO (Aluminum) M.2 2280 4TB PCIe 4.0 x4 with NVMe 1.4 TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) TM8FFH004T0C128
Team Group T-FORCE G70 PRO (Aluminum) M.2 2280 4TB PCIe 4.0 x4 with NVMe 1.4 TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) TM8FFH004T0C128

Pros: +PCI-E Gen 4, and it shows +A reliable brand, one I didn't feel like I was taking a chance on +Decent thermal performance with the included heatsink +One of the cheaper drives that includes a DRAM cache

Cons: -The heatsink required manual installation, which was rather painful, though a plus if your motherboard has a beefy integrated M.2 heatsink, or if you plan to install this drive on a laptop

Overall Review: I've used budget drives from this brand for years and never had an issue. I was researching inexpensive drives that also included a DRAM cache, and this one was well-reviewed online. It's not as blazing fast as some of those more performance-oriented drives, but it more than gets the job done and comes in at a rather attractive price-point. I dropped one of the included heatsink screws during installation and had to scramble to find a suitable replacement. Thankfully they seem like relatively standard M.2 screws, so it didn't take me long to find one. If you end up getting this drive, and want to install the heatsink, make sure you bias the thermal pad to entirely cover the controller, since it's what'll be heating up the most. One of the NANDs will be slightly exposed, since the thermal pad is a tad short, but this should be fine. NAND chips aren't nearly as heat sensitive as the controller. During initial testing, I didn't notice throttling until about 90C, but it seems to stay under that most of the time. For everyday use it doesn't get much above 70C with the included heatsink. No throttling to be seen.

Most Critical Review

It was free

Rosewill RHB-320 - 7-Port USB 2.0 / 1.1 Hub with Power Adapter
Rosewill RHB-320 - 7-Port USB 2.0 / 1.1 Hub with Power Adapter

Pros: Well like the review says, it was free. Other than that it is a 7 port USB hub.

Cons: Cannot be used as a passive USB charger. Devices always pick up the data signal, even when hub is unplugged from a computer. Major con for me, as I use these to listen to my mp3 players while charging. When they see a data connection they switch to data-transfer mode and cannot play anything.

Overall Review: It is useful for other things, I haven't tried connecting too many things to it. I have a Rosewill enclosure that uses two ports, one for power. I've heard these particular hubs don't have a very robust power output, so they may not be able to drive more than one of those, but I wouldn't know. The other devices I've ever had connected at the same time were tiny mp3 players and actively powered external drives. Again, if it wasn't free I probably would have gone with something different but I do appreciate Newegg throwing in freebies every now and then so I'm trying not to be too harsh.

Works great, booted right up on AM5

OLOy Blade (OLOY) 96GB (2 x 48GB) DDR5 6400 (PC5 51200) Desktop Memory Model ND5U4864320BRLDA

Pros: - A great kit; good bin with excellent performance and compatibility on my AM5 build

Cons: - None to speak of

Overall Review: Booted right up, and then I set it to its Expo setting in BIOS. This kit is currently running flawlessly at 6400MT/s, paired with my Ryzen 9 7900.

A fantastically compact triple-fan card

ZOTAC SOLID CORE GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB 256-Bit GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 x16 Graphics Card ZT-B50710D2-10P
ZOTAC SOLID CORE GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB 256-Bit GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 x16 Graphics Card ZT-B50710D2-10P

Pros: -Uses a triple slot bracket that actually uses extra screws attached to the heat sink for support -Not much wider than the pci-e slot itself, and shorter than my Noctua heat sink -Zero sag when fastened down with all three case screws -Under-volts wonderfully and still performs a lot better than my old 4070 Super

Cons: -The support bracket it comes with is rather short, but it doesn't really need it anyway -I don't think the blue logo on the side can be turned off, but it doesn't really bother me

Overall Review: It's pretty locked down and can only ever use 300w, but that's not a con for me. I prefer to under-volt GPUs for temperature and this still maintains excellent performance while using less power. It's fairly long but still fit in my case. I have hard drive cages installed and thankfully did not have to move them to install this thing. My previous GPU was a dual-fan, two slot model. This is the biggest card I've ever had but it does not sag at all. Installed as it should be, it fits very snug in my case and doesn't require any external support at all. The included under-volt settings from Afterburner allow for most of the performance at a max of about 260w in Furmark. Temps barely reach 70C there using a stock fan curve and remain appreciably lower when actually playing games. I was very fortunate to be able to get this card at MSRP. I hadn't ever seen one listed at that price before, so I jumped on it right away. For what I paid I feel like I got a really good deal.

This is just a really good case

Phanteks XT Pro, Mid-Tower Gaming Chassis, High Airflow Performance Mesh, Tempered Glass Window, 1x M25-120 Black fan included, Black

Pros: Lots of space Good cable management With optional fans the thermal performance is fantastic

Cons: None that are the fault of the product. Hopefully these will come back down in price some day.

Overall Review: I wasn't aware mid-tower cases had gotten so massive. I hadn't bought a new case in a while, so I guess it's just where the industry is going. I have a "full tower" case that is not all that much larger than this case, though it's a bit dated by today's standards. This thing comes with a fan, but I removed it and installed four of my own. Three intake and one exhaust. Keeps everything nice and cool, from the PSU to the chipset, GPU, and CPU. It's wonderful to work in and is well laid out. Like I said it's pretty big, but not too big. The case panel screws are captive, which I love. I always have to remind myself to not take them out all the way. Unfortunately with things how they are, this is a more expensive buy these days than when I bought it. It's still the best value out there as far as I'm concerned, just not as great as it once was. Hopefully things level out in the future. If this case catches your eye and will fit your needs, don't hesitate to pick it up. Overall it's an incredibly sensible case.

I was not expecting much, but was pleasantly surpised

Rosewill Cordless Air Duster - 110,000 RPM Super Power Cordless Compressed Air Duster, 3-Gear Adjustable Mini Blower with Fast Charging, Dust Blower for Computer, Keyboard, Pet, House, Outdoor and Car

Pros: Charges quickly with a 3A usb-c cable. Battery seems to last a bit, even when using it at full speed Way more airflow than I thought possible

Cons: The only real con is that I didn't get one of these sooner. The product itself does everything it says it will.

Overall Review: I've been using a compressor in my garage to dust things forever. These days it's loud and takes a long time to get up to pressure. With this thing I can just turn it on, press the button, and I get nearly the same airflow in a portable, instant, and reusable package. I didn't think it was possible without a tank, but this thing is great. It uses two lithium ion batters in tandem for something like a 125w output. It's a little loud but nowhere near as bad as an air compressor. My dogs hate it, but some of them are used to the groomer so I don't blame them. It must sound the same to them.
