Most Favorable Review

crisp clear picture

BenQ GW2760HS Black 27" VA LCD/LED Monitor, 300 cd/m2 DCR 20,000,000:1 (3000:1), Built-in Speakers, VESA Mountable, DVI HDMI

Pros: My old BenQ is starting to dim some and lose it crispness after 5 years of use. It's been such a great display so I bought one of these 27" ones. It has so far lived up to my expectations. I'd rather watch movies on this than my new 55" TV.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Wish I would have pulled the lever on this when it was cheaper.

Most Critical Review

Fast card but....

SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 11188-22-20G
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 11188-22-20G

Pros: I run high settings on all my games at 1920 X 1200 with no issues. It is a very fast card.

Cons: The fans on the Sapphire cards are junk. After about a year one of the fans on my card stopped working. Both fans appear to be cheaply made. I'd expect better for a $270 card - at the time I purchased it.

Overall Review: Sapphire says to RMA the card through the retailer. NewEgg doesn't cross ship so having my PC down for two weeks really is not an option.

Great Keyboard

Pros: I wasn't too sure how'd I'd like going back to a manual keyboard after years of using the cheapo ones. It only took me a couple weeks to fall in love with it. It's been great for gaming and just general use too.

Cons: none,

Excellent switch

Cisco Small Business 100 Series SG102-24-NA Smart 24-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Switch

Pros: This replaced an old dell switch I've been using for years. It was beginning to act up a little and fan went out in it. This cisco switch has been running flawless for several months now.

Cons: none

Overall Review: great product, I recommend it and would buy again if the need arose.

it works!

ORICO 6828US3-C Aluminum & Plastic SATA to USB 3.0 Hard Drive Docking Station with Stand Alone Clone Function for 2.5" & 3.5" HDD/SSD, Maximum 8TB - Silver

Pros: It has worked on every drive I have used on it so far. I have several laptop drives and desktop HDs lying around I wanted to wipe before putting them out in a yard sale. This fit the bill perfectly. In the future I'll probably use it for extra storage backups.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Highly recommend it.

Cons: none so far
