Awesome Card

SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4830 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100265L
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4830 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100265L

Pros: With this card I can run Crysis on high with 30+FPS. That means that I can play any game out there with this card. I highly recommend it to everyone. This is the best card you can buy in this price range.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Make sure it fits in your case. Easy to overclock with auto-tune also. And my temps are ok with the card. It idles at 40 C and goes up to 60C on load, sometimes higher. AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+ 2x2GB DDR2 800 HD 4830 Rosewill 550W PSU PI-AM2RS780G Mobo

It's a hard drive

Pros: 1 TB, 7200 RPM, etc. I don't need to list all of the specs, they are on the page above these reviews... Works as it should. Plugged it in, partitioned into 2 different partitions, one for windows and one for storage. So far so good. My old Windows drive had 500+ bad sectors (lol). Prices seem to just keep going down for storage and I'm now at 3TB in my rig and will always need more.

Cons: None, other than it's not an SSD but... duh.

Overall Review: I'm always tempted to buy 2TB plus drives, even a 4TB drive, but the thought of a drive that big failing on me sort of scares me since I have yet to have the redundancy to backup my current storage.

Fantastic controller

PIONEER DDJ-SX DIGITAL PERFORMANCE DJ CONTROLLER FOR SERATO DJ SOFTWARE DDJSX
PIONEER DDJ-SX DIGITAL PERFORMANCE DJ CONTROLLER FOR SERATO DJ SOFTWARE DDJSX

Pros: Amazing jog wheels, the pads all work fantastically and they really made good use of them (easy hot cues, roll, slicer and sampler). The faders feel great. I'm used to the faders on my old Akai MPD24 (which are also great) and these are just as good if not better. Mixer works standalone (the filters are built in!), which adds so many more uses for the controller. Knobs all have rubber grip and feel very smooth. Individual gain and meter for each channel. Needle search is also amazing and probably one of my favorite features. Lastly, it just looks beautiful. Very CDJ look and feel. In my opinion, one of the best controllers you can get without taking the step to CDJs (which was to expensive for me), but still have the look and feel of them.

Cons: I have read the jog wheels aren't as responsive in Traktor for scratching, but I'm still new to scratching and have yet to try them in Serato to actually compare. That's about the only issue I could think of. I've had zero problems with it so far.

Overall Review: It's pretty large (which to me is a GOOD thing, who wants a tiny controller that looks like a child's toy?), and the build quality is A+, just as top of the line Pioneer mixers. SQ seems to be up to par with a DJM-850 (as I've read), or at least close, which impressive considering the price. This thing can push out some SERIOUS volume levels.

Fantastic card

XFX Double D Radeon HD 7850 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card FX-785A-CDFC
XFX Double D Radeon HD 7850 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card FX-785A-CDFC

Pros: It's a mid range card, so exactly what one would expect from a mid range card, but a little more. It's got a better cooling solution than most of the single fan cards, and looks better too. Did cut my hand on the sharp edges when taking it out of my PCI-E slot once though.

Cons: None, you get what you pay for and this is a fantastic deal. Price to performance ratio is outstanding.

Overall Review: I just ordered another one yesterday for crossfire. System will be as follows: FX-8350 with Corsair H100i water cooler ASUS M5A99FX PRO RV2 G.SKILL Ares, 16GB total XFX Double D HD 7850 x2 in crossfire Rosewill Hive-750 750watt RAIDMAX Smilodon Silver case Also, to the poster below, the games aren't even out yet, so no duh you aren't going to be able to redeem them yet.

Pros: Does what it is supposed to and better than most other brands. One tube will last for plenty of builds.

Cons: Doesn't come off skin very well.

Overall Review: I recommend researching how to properly apply thermal paste before doing so. Chances are there are better methods than what you are currently doing.

Fantastic router

Linksys WRT54GL 802.11b/g Wireless Broadband Router up to 54 Mbps/ Compatible with Open Source DD-WRT (not pre-load)
Linksys WRT54GL 802.11b/g Wireless Broadband Router up to 54 Mbps/ Compatible with Open Source DD-WRT (not pre-load)

Pros: It has been serving me for a couple years now flawlessly. The only time I've ever had to reboot it was when my cable provider went down on a few occasions, but to no fault of the router. Wireless range is pretty good and you can even use custom firmware with this model. Very easy to set up even if you don't know what you're doing, but luckily I do:p

Cons: Not wireless N but I knew that before buying.

Overall Review: This is still a solid router even today, regardless of not having wireless N support.
