Most Favorable Review

Love it

EVGA 02G-P4-2761-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card
EVGA 02G-P4-2761-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Amazingly powerful, sleek card. Huge improvement over my previous card which shall not be mentioned. Card temperatures went from 49-62 degrees idling down to 29-35 for a 2 monitor setup. Vast improvement in FPS in WoW, BF3, and my steam catalogue. Also, video editing LOL much better.

Cons: It is long. Look at the specs, do some measurements. Don't buy something that wont fit.

Overall Review: Love it. I really do. This thing probably saved me from having to build a new rig it was that good of an improvement (was using a low tier GPU that didn't hold up to the reviews it was getting)

Most Critical Review

Does not hold even close to specified weight

Duronic DM251X3 PC Monitor Arm Stand Desk Mount Bracket Clamp Single LCD | LED |13"-27" (Tilt ±45°|Swivel 90°|Rotate 360°)
Duronic DM251X3 PC Monitor Arm Stand Desk Mount Bracket Clamp Single LCD | LED |13"-27" (Tilt ±45°|Swivel 90°|Rotate 360°)

Pros: Cheap, looks nice, simplish to setup

Cons: These claim to be able to support up to 17.6 lbs but with a monitor at 9.3 lbs, and with the bolt/screw tightened as far as possible, the screen falls every time. Sometimes slowly but without fail. Luckily I had only opened and thrown out one of the boxes meaning i'm stuck with a pretty useless paperweight that will probably get thrown in the trash.

Overall Review: The reason I'm returning one of these is because they do NOT hold the specified weight. I had ordered another one a while ago and it's past return date but had ordered a second to go with two new monitors, both weighing only 9.30 lbs. Extremely disappointed in the quality as I had made sure to buy one that 'should' work.

Great so far

Pros: Received quickly and safely packaged. Everything included that was needed. Easy setup. Blue LED.

Cons: Screw size. They give you enough screws but some of them did seem like they were slightly too big. Not a huge issue, I left the side panels not screw(ed) {seriously Newegg, you flag Screw-ed as inappropriate} it but slightly annoying. In no way a dealbreaker. Fan is a bit loud but rather have that then overheated HDD.

Overall Review: Got this for an Internal drive I was given at work (after asking for an external from my boss.. le sigh) so I could move video files and projects so I could work from home if need be. Like it so far.

Pros: Very good picture quality. Easy to setup.

Cons: The sound quality is extremely bad. Like so bad you will have to get speakers eventually like I am.

Overall Review: For the price its great. Still leaves a lot to be desired audio wise.
