I Love This Stand

Ergotech 100-D16-B03-TW Triple LCD Desk Stand
Ergotech 100-D16-B03-TW Triple LCD Desk Stand

Pros: I'm using it with three ASUS VN248H-P. It can be expanded with kits up to 6 monitors. This modular design makes it great for me as I want to start off with just 3 and upgrade over time to more. The kits look to be decently priced as well but hopefully will still be available in 1 year when I go for the next row of monitors. I did not see the kits on Newegg but they are out there. My friend showed me his setup with this and I had to do the same as it rocks. For those out there that are going for the 6x upgrade take a peek below for my crazy plans to upgrade -- 100-‐D16-‐B03--TW 3x monitors To upgrade to 100-‐D28-‐B33 6x monitors needs 1 28" Pole (Part #P00045) 2 Height Adjustable Pivots (Part #A00140) 1 Standard Pivot (Part #A00040) 1 Triple Cross Bar (Part #A00058) This makes the top row regular and the bottom row TW. Both could be TW but that would cost more and just be a different part #.

Cons: The adjustors use a key to lock in place and it seems the people who lock it at the factory are a bit stronger than me. Had to use an extended one to get it to budge. Once its free works like a charm.

Overall Review: Cant wit till I get more $$ and get the kit for the second row of monitors.

Pros: I'm able to play multiple games at the same time, do video encoding and stream video. Love it so far. Rampage 4 Extreme Intel I7 3930

Cons: Cost but alas this is actually pretty cheap compared to others at the time of my purchase. Have to pay big to get more.

Overall Review: I always want more but have to keep cost in mind.

Pros: It has saved me a few times already with power outages and brown outs. Overall I'm very pleased with this.

Cons: Well its a con but not really as the unit can only run for so long during a power outage and of course its based on how many things you have plugged in. Wish it would store even more but I know that's on me wanting to be cheap.

Overall Review: As I keep adding more to the unit I will probably need another to soon to keep up with the power demands.

Pros: Works well for swapping out parts and quick testing.

Cons: It looks a bit cheap but then again I did not spend to much on it so I got what I payed for.

Overall Review: Might get a second for testing AMD parts out as the main one I have setup is for testing on an older Intel.

Works great with my LGA2011

CORSAIR Hydro Series H100 (CWCH100) Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

Pros: Keeps the CPU cool and allows for my overclock of 4.5

Cons: Fans can be a bit loud at times but no biggy swapped them out with a better set. Still the value covered the cost of the 2 additional fans.

All the cables I need + more

Pros: Love the looks of the power supply. Works great with my crossfire setup.

Cons: Cords are a bit snug but that’s because of the case I'm using. Would have loved it even more with better braiding on the cables but still a good value.
