Pros: ESATA, extra USB, very slick looking. Love that the screen is functional, and that you can fold it in so it doesn't wreck the look of the desktop.
Cons: Fan speed monitors are not particularly accurate. Drivers can be a little finicky.
Overall Review: Personally, I like the spring loaded mechanism over a motorized one. Less to break. Also, be careful about dropping fan speed to low. Fans may not like the low supplied voltages. This is an issue with fans, though, not the controller.
Lousy shape
Pros: -Pretty lights -Very smooth tracking
Cons: This mouse is shaped very poorly in my opinion. The sides undercut the rest of the mouse, making the side buttons very uncomfortable to reach and operate. The side buttons are also placed too far back for my hands.
Overall Review: People with small hands may find this mouse OK. Mine are too large. I plan on RMA'ing this mouse and facing the 15% restock. I will be looking at a Logitech G5/G9 next.
Very pleased
Pros: After being severely disappointed by the Razer Diamondback, this mouse was a breath of fresh air. Stacked side buttons are an excellent design, mouse tracks well, and red LEDs rock.
Cons: -Not a con so much for me, but this mouse is LONG. Not for people with small hands.
Overall Review: -Recommend going to local stores and trying mice out for comfort before buying. Avoid restocking fees!
Nice case, weak PSU
Pros: -Very stylish, compact case. -Love the front port locations -Enough space (barely) behind the front door for AeroCool FP-01. It touches, but the door will stay closed with the fan monitor in use.
Cons: -PSU: 450W is barely enough to power a mid-end system, never mind high end. I had system crashes during Supreme Commander. Went away with new 750W PSU. -Compact case. Can be a little tight routing cables when using large motherboard/GPU. I have a 8800GTS, and I can barely fit in the front fan.
Overall Review: -I HATE blue LED's. Always WAY too bright. However, they are standard sized LED's, and I replaced them with red ones from Radio Shack. So much better!
A good motherboard
Pros: Excellent features (IEEE 1394B, fast FSB, excellent processor support). I am pleased with this motherboard, and would purchase again.
Cons: Lots of large capacitors with very soft leads. First motherboard had a capacitor with a broken lead. RMA'd, and new one is in perfect condition.
Overall Review: Make sure you have an EPS rated Psupply, or get a good quality 8pin motherboard adapter (Hiper HLC-2M1P-15). Also, I've been experiencing static when moving my mouse. Not sure if it's the motherboard, mouse, psupply or what.
Took my $, failed to deliver
If I could give them 0 stars, I would. Ordered products on 3/24. They sent me an invalid shipping notification. I never received my product, and eventually had to issue a credit card dispute to get my money back. This in turn caused Newegg to suspend my account, which took over 2 months of constant phone calls and emails to fix. I've never had an issue with Newegg itself, but I'll never order through their marketplace again.
