Great Headphones

Pros: First off, I would like to state that I own the A700's I could not find them listed on this website, but I am not really going to go in-depth on the sound but more of my overall experience with the quality. Though the sound is pretty much the same in both of them. First off, the build quality is superb, i've dropped these so many times on hardwood flooring and they keep on going! Rolled over the braided cable with my chair, twisted the cable, pretty much might have destroyed most headsets. I've even left them out in the car during the winter/summer and that doesn't seem to effect them at all. The quality of my A700's (remember the quality is a SLIGHT bit different, I believe the AD700's actually sound a bit better) is just more than exceptional. It was a big upgrade from my Turtle Beaches & Astro A40's. Even though those aren't really meant for listening to music on. Just giving you an idea how how amazed I was when I actually bought something that was meant for listening to music with. I'm at my computer for 5-6hours a day, and after I get these broken in. (By bending them to fit my head.) I really never have fatigue or ear problems or anything. Gaming has been excellent with these. I don't have a problem hearing footsteps, knowing what type of gun is being shot. What direction footsteps/gunshots are from, though that mainly relays on your soundcard more than the actual headset itself. Though you do not need a soundcard for directional sound to work, but it MAY work better for you if you do have one. Overall this is one of the better "future proof" purchases I have ever made and can 100% say that i'm happy and wouldn't of changed my mind about.
Cons: Not really cons but just some minor things that have happened to my A700's. * The rubber/plastic padding on the ear cup has come completely off. So now it's down to the bare foam. (It didn't effect the comfort of the headphone at all) * The plastic ring that held the pad onto the headphone actually started tearing, so I had to superglue the pad onto the headphone. Once again it wasn't TERRIBLY hard and as much as i've put these through and it only be a cosmetic issue i'm 100% happy. * I'm sure it's different on the AD700's but on the A700's sometimes my ears get sweaty. Not a problem, and i'm 100% sure it's because my headphones are closed back. * Not a con, but if you have a small head. These headphones most likely will not be the ones for you. * If you're into RAP music and like to hear more bass than anything else. These headphones are also not for you.
Overall Review: * I don't have a DAC or AMP for these. The sound is still great!
Decent Case

Pros: It's a beautiful case. Free shipping.
Cons: The back part of the metal is flimsy, I noticed this when istalling my back panel for my motherboard. I had to bend the bracks for the harddrive holder because my harddrive wouldn't fit with them things in the way. Had to pop the frount part of both of my CD roms off to install them this thing has no ROOM in it was so ever for cd roms. The button for the cd roms to make them open and close will not reach my buttons for my cd rom drives I had to take a peice of plastic on the buttons so they will reach the buttons! Very hard to install the mobo with the panels in the way for the cd rom drives and the harddrive holders.
Overall Review: Buy if it you want to, as for me I won't purchase another one!
Yay

Pros: Weighted On the Fly Switching 200+ Colors to choose from for the LED. (Just different shades of the same color, but still) 2Grips The buttons for your thumb are GREAT so much better than MX518 in my opinion. Braded Cable 1000Hz Polling Rate
Cons: None.
Overall Review: I play with the grip that feels like sandpaper kind of. It's the precision grip I guess and I got use to it very quickly. :) Also if you use the blue color for your LED your most likely to get headshots because blue is awesome. Gear this up with a great mousepad and pewpewpew shoot all night!
I love AMD

Pros: It's a quad core It's 125w It's C3 It's AMD! & Overclocks like a BOSS!
Cons: Not enough stickers
Overall Review: 4.0GHz just be adjusting your multiplier & nudging the voltage. I suggest buying aftermarket cooling when doing an OC on this thing. I've got a Hyper Plus 212 & it hits 46c Prime95(3.4Ghz though)
Woot!

Pros: It's a 5870 in a 5850 price range? It looks amazing... Is louder than my box fan @ 100% Yeah that's a pro because I think it's neat. And it's running Crysis at around 35FPS(stock) BC:2 at 70FPS(stock) MW2(haven't tested these but makes my 8800GTS look like a chump)
Cons: Locked Voltage....or say they say. ;) See other thoughts
Overall Review: Flash your bios guys and the unlocked core shall be yours. Just search for "5850 Unlocking" You'll be glad to see your 5870...I mean 5850 reborn. No T-Shirt & not enough stickers I expect atleast 10+ to showoff on the case.
Yay!

Pros: 7-7-7-16 @ 1.9V See other thoughts
Cons: Was difficult to get it to run stock speeds without doing a lil research. Especially when it said 7-7-7 @ 1.7v 1600MHz ya think the sticker would never lie? :P Guess that's what search engines are for. Also no stickers! x( i want to showoff how cool this ram is to my buddys it needs stickers this piece of cardboard with OCZ sharpied on it & duct taped to my case is not sufficent.
Overall Review: I suggest trying 1.9V with 7-7-7-16 1T and it works fine. (for me anyways) To a new user this ram is annoying and will give you issues. False information. :P Though it does run 7-7-7 just not at 1.7v. As my testing as shown :P It's a beautiful stick of ram, i'm seriously in love with it. It looks like a nice little briefcase. That says "simply pwnt" by OCZ on it. Ok well it don't say that but it might as well. :P Please do not let the timing issue not buy it. It's very high performance stuff. It just needs a little push I suppose. :)
