Loved this heatsink
Pros: Fit perfectly in a Supermicro 2u chasis with a supermicro motherboard which is what it was made for. Extremely easy to install. These Xeon cpu's stay COLD. :)
Cons: Loud at highest rpm! But what rack mount server that is cooled decently isn't?
BUYER BEWARE!
Pros: None
Cons: It turned on the first time and forced itself into bios. I set the boot priorities and restarted it and it will no longer give video. I gives beep codes when you remove memory. Tried reseating the cpu. Disconnected everything. Cleared CMOS. Removed the bios chip. Tried another PSU. It is 110% this motherboard is a piece of junk. Buyer beware!
Does not fit newest XG1** series.
Pros: Works great on old model XG1** series units.
Cons: Does not fit new XG1** series units.
Overall Review: Sighhh.... they need to specify this somewhere...
I buy about 10-20 of these a month
Pros: Very reliable cheap DVD-RW drive. Love it.
Cons: None
I buy about 10 of these a month. EVO and PRO
Pros: The 840 had a few fail, the 850 only had 1 fail. Buy around 10-20 of these every month. Best drive on the market hands down. I run 4 of these in a RAID0 if that tells you how much I trust Samsung SSD's.
Cons: None
It's the best CPU on the market. What else?
Pros: Look at any bench mark and see this chip doesn't fail. Love it.
Cons: None

Nope Nope Nope, slow shipping
SLOOOW shipping and shipping from all the way across the country in California. If you live anywhere other than West Cost expect 1.5 weeks for delivery. Made this order Tuesday, it says it hasn't shipped out until today (Thursday). Hopefully they sent the right items and it isn't all busted up. Prices aren't even cheaper than neweggs. Definitely not worth it.
