Great Tablet but...

ASUS Google Nexus 7 Tablet 32GB - Brown
ASUS Google Nexus 7 Tablet 32GB - Brown

Pros: After reading many reviews I would say the tablet holds up to the hype. Its fast, the screen resolution is great, touch sensitivity is very good, amazing graphics, and Jelly Bean is fantastic.

Cons: One GLARING flaw that I did not know about until I had it in my hands is that the screen on the left side was loose. After doing some research I found out this is not an uncommon problem. There are several videos on youtube with instructions on how to fix the loose screen. If one year from now the screen came loose and needed to be adjusted I would be ok with that. I have had this tablet less than 24 hours!

Overall Review: This problem is hit or miss it appears. Many people report loose screens but many people report no issues. I have submitted an RMA to replace mine. Painless process (Thank you Newegg). I will update this review after my new Nexus 7 arrives.

Hiccups but no Deal Breakers

OCZ Vertex 3 Series - MAX IOPS Edition 2.5" 120GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) VTX3MI-25SAT3-120G
OCZ Vertex 3 Series - MAX IOPS Edition 2.5" 120GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) VTX3MI-25SAT3-120G

Pros: The drive is VERY fast. Opening up programs and accessing files almost instantly. This drive is now the fastest thing on my computer according to the WEI. Good size for a boot drive.

Cons: I did encounter the same problems many are describing in other reviews. My computer would freeze and reboot. No BSOD, just a lot of rebooting. Had some trouble determining that the issue was the hard drive so I looked in to the solutions. After updating my motherboards Bios and the Firmware on the drive itself I am happy to announce no more issues. (Minus one egg for the inconvenience) It is also a bit pricey.

Overall Review: Still trying to justify the price. Its very fast but... still not sure it was worth it. I don't think you will be disappointing if you buy it and perform the updates from the start.

Amazing Case for the Money!

Cooler Master HAF 912 - Mid Tower Computer Case with High Airflow, Supporting up to Six 120mm Fans and USB 3.0
Cooler Master HAF 912 - Mid Tower Computer Case with High Airflow, Supporting up to Six 120mm Fans and USB 3.0

Pros: Plenty of room. Bottom Mounted PSU with vent at the bottom for an inverted mount. The sky is the limit with your cooling options. Potential for Massive airflow. And plenty of options for liquid cooling as well. Plenty of cable management options as well. The mounts for the hard drives are facing out so it is easy to replace and install plus a special mount for SSDs. Quality build. Does not look/feel like it cost $59 ($49 after rebate) and Free Shipping! I am thrilled

Cons: The mother board mounts a little high on the case. If you install a 200mm fan on top and use a large heatsink (Mugen 2) then it becomes a little difficult to install. Wish the inside was painted black.

Overall Review: I am just now purchasing my second one of these. Loved the first one. Will probably buy another for my next build.

Monster Fans!

Scythe DFS123812-3000 "ULTRA KAZE" 120 x 38 mm Case Fan
Scythe DFS123812-3000 "ULTRA KAZE" 120 x 38 mm Case Fan

Pros: The fans are a great price. They move a TON OF AIR! I recommend using a fan controller connected to these guys so that they do not run full all the time.

Cons: The fans are thicker than 120mm Fans. I had to customize my case to be able to accommodate the larger size and it was a little ugly but it worked. Loud when moving at full speed but that is expected.

Great Deal

Cooler Master HAF 912 - Mid Tower Computer Case with High Airflow, Supporting up to Six 120mm Fans and USB 3.0

Pros: Phenomenal case for the price! The case has plenty of space for you to work with. Plenty of mounting points for whatever kind of rig you want to set up (Air cooled or liquid cooled) Front panel cables are plenty long and the case has a good amount of cable management options.

Cons: Only comes with 2 fans. At the same time more fans would be useless if you intended to liquid cool your rig.
