Most Favorable Review

Nice card

PowerColor Radeon X800GTO 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card X800GTO16256MBDDR3
PowerColor Radeon X800GTO 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card X800GTO16256MBDDR3

Pros: Well, overall this is porbably the best card you can expect to get for under 200. Can run almost any game on high with about 40 fps. The Temp can run a little high even with stock speeds.

Cons: This is really a x800xl and not the gto. Difference is the gto has a better chip, but doesn't have the 16 pipelines like this card.

Overall Review: The cheapest card with 16 pipelines. It's a good buy no regrets here. You should really go for it.

Most Critical Review

Absoluty horrible.

Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Broadband Router IEEE 802.3/3u, IEEE 802.11b/g
Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Broadband Router IEEE 802.3/3u, IEEE 802.11b/g

Pros: Its pretty cheap...kinda.

Cons: Where do i start? The range for this thing is horrible, i could barely get a singal in my living room ( which is like 40 feet away, which is nothing ) Drops connections for no reason. Even when connect through a ethernet cable i would lose connection. And i can't get the ip address on my laptop unless i connect it ( wired ) then get the ip and then i could go wireless. Absoluty horrible device

Overall Review: I would NOT recommend this to ANYONE who wants a reliable wifi router. Look elsewhere. I ended up throwing it away.

Honestly...Great Board

GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Pros: A lot. Runs very cool, great overclockable, and stable as a rock. For my build I didnt to anything too drastic, kept my good ol' E6600 and zalman 9700 setup. On the Zalman setup I managed to get the chip to 3.84 STABLE (keyword, lol), even though it was at 1.48v (pretty old chip, takes a bit more to get it running stable) and a 1920fsb. Managed to push the chip to about 4.1ghz but far too unstable.

Cons: All the smiling is hurting my face :)

Overall Review: Running a great setup with a raid 0 Raptor X 150gb setup. 3.84ghz E6600 (remember stock is 2.4ghz) 2gbs of ram, xp pro. My only gripe is that this board didn't cost MORE, makes me feel bad since I used this board to replace my older P35 DQ4 board and that sucker coster nearly 3 times and it outperforms it!...sigh. Even if you didnt really know what you were doing, Im sure you'll do well with this board. I vote, Best budget board, bar none. Click...buy...joy.

Exceptional Board!

GIGABYTE GA-P35-DQ6 LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Haven't had a single problem with this mobo yet. Managed to get my E6600 to 3.4ghz (1.316v) on air, Stable 24/7...Temps are 42c idle, 59c under load. I managed to hit 4.1ghz on Dan***den Watercooling. Bioshock looks amazing in 1920x1080 :P, just thought I'd add that in.

Cons: Windows XP runs TOO fast! lol, jk None that I could find yet. Fsb wall looks to be around the 450's for me (might be cpu wall though), but thats not really a con.

Overall Review: Great Mobo for the price. P35 chipset is working fantastic as well as the ICH9R controller, mobo temps stay nice and cool, running a 17**fsb easy. I'll update once I get my hands on a E6850. Get this mobo, you won't regret it! Now, vista on the other-hand...

Eh' Not too bad

Logitech MX Revolution Black 7 Buttons 2 x Wheels RF Wireless Laser Mouse
Logitech MX Revolution Black 7 Buttons 2 x Wheels RF Wireless Laser Mouse

Pros: Great Design, Comfortable, Beautiful scroll wheel. Setpoint software is very useful too. Nice rebate.

Cons: Mouse tends to lag when battery is low. Not really a con, but no on the fly dpi change.

Overall Review: I don't know if its just me, but whenever the battery on the mouse dips into the 50% region the mouse becomes very unresponsive. But once you charge it back to about 60%, it was flawless. Also battery life has really decreased since I've gotten it ( according to logitech software). At first I would get about "12-13" days battery live with the setpoint software. Its been about 1 month and now on full charge i get 6 days? So if you're getting this. Just makes sure your battery is fully charged before heading into BF2.

Great for the price

Logitech THX Z-5300e 280 Watts RMS 5.1 Speaker
Logitech THX Z-5300e 280 Watts RMS 5.1 Speaker

Pros: These speakers plus x-fi equals nice. First off this would be a set up for more rap orientated music. Bass is a little over exaggerated with this system (when on default). Nice mids and lows. Great looking design. pretty cool control pod.

Cons: Lacking in the clarity department but just slightly. Slight hiss at high volume.

Overall Review: All in all, you really cant beat these speakers for the price. But if you had a little more to spare, check out the m-audio 2.1 setup (expandable to 5.1). Or the klipsch 5.1 If this is going to be your first 5.1 setup, you're going to definitely love these speakers without a doubt. Best speakers for under $xxx. Thats my 2 cents.
