Misunderstood and Maligned

Sentry LX Aluminum dual bay fan controller
Sentry LX Aluminum dual bay fan controller

Pros: -Gorgeous! This is probably the prettiest addition you will ever make to any computer case. -Fan control is intuitive -Temperature sensors are small, easily hidden and accurate -Alarm is almost too quiet -Automatic fan control works very well. Manual is fine, but if you don’t know what your doing you can ruin a fan by overdriving it.

Cons: -A whole lot of wires going on. -Provided tape for the temp sensors doesn't work.

Overall Review: This is one of those case mods that takes T I M E to do properly. Get a cup of coffee, strip your case down to bare metal, wash it thoroughly and take your time putting this in. Once the cables are dressed and taped down (use cloth gaffers tape, black- if you can find it- it’s sticky as duct tape but made of cloth and disappears inside a black case) you'll have a thing of beauty. Place the sensors by the appropriate fan intakes (not outflow) so your readings mean something. Install, when done properly, should take a few hours. But once it’s done you’ll really have something nice. NZXT has been improving this product over the years and you can see their missteps documented in the older reviews. I am glad I waited to buy this, because the product is fairly well perfected. I’d recommend this to anyone who 1: wants a really cool looking functional mod and 2: has the patience to install it properly.

Rosewill NEON M54 Wired Gaming Mouse with Adjustable Weight Tuning and Interchangeable Side Plates, On-The-Fly 7200 DPI, Ergonomic with Finger Rest, 8 Programmable Buttons, 11 RGB Backlight Modes

Pros: -Great "daily driver" -Adjustable weight and tracking speed -RGB is good -Programmable controls -Swappable side plate

Cons: -Feels cheap

Overall Review: - I have been using this mouse for about a year now, still works like it's out of the box.

Excellent choice

Antec Performance Series P82 Silent ATX Mid-Tower Case, 3 x 120mm Fans Included, Fan Speed Control, Sound-Dampening Side Panels, Removable 2.5" SSD Rack, Supports for Up to 4 x 2.5" SSDs
Antec Performance Series P82 Silent ATX Mid-Tower Case, 3 x 120mm Fans Included, Fan Speed Control, Sound-Dampening Side Panels, Removable 2.5" SSD Rack, Supports for Up to 4 x 2.5" SSDs

Pros: - Price point -Very quiet -Good overall build quality - Three included fans are functional -Good airflow, considering low noise -Location of controls on side a plus for me, but not everyone.

Cons: -Fans could have been better made but for cost are sufficient -No RGB (could be a plus for some) -Build quality could be improved, but is sufficient

Overall Review: -Overall, at this price point, this is about the best quiet case I've found. Sure, Fractal and Corsair have (much) better... at three times the price. Everything is good enough, but not the best. I was very pleasantly surprised that Antec put thought into a less expensive product with this many features. The side mounted controls are perfect for me, but not for everyone.

Easy set up and use, works great

ASUS AC3100 Wi-Fi Dual-band Gigabit Wireless Router with 4x4 MU-MIMO, 8 x LAN Ports, AiProtection Network Security and WTFast Game Accelerator, AiMesh Whole Home Wi-Fi System Compatible (RT-AC88U)

Pros: -Eight (8) port switch! -Great wifi range Much more reliable that older Linksys it replaced

Cons: -Price was a little high -Had to update software almost immediately

Overall Review: I don't use wifi to the extent that many other reviewers do so many of those issues don't apply. I needed a newer reliable switch and eight ports fit the bill.

CR3 Monitors

Mackie CR3 Pair Powered Multimedia Monitor Speakers Studio Design

Pros: -The size of bookshelf speakers, these produce quite a lot of sound, the frequency response is within +/- 1 DB at all frequencies. -They fill the room and have as much bass as 2.1 units at twice the price but half the build quality. -The green accents are cool.

Cons: -I bought these for my wife, because she has hearing loss and needs very accurate speakers. When we played her favorite music through them, she cried. She hadn't been able to hear the music the way she remembered it for many years.

Overall Review: -I would definitely recommend these to anyone who wants accurate sound and room filling volume.

Packaging was suspect.

The seller reused an old tattered USPS box, resulting in the USB transceiver falling out of the box on my porch.
