I like it

Pros: I use this mouse for WoW and I love it. Granted, I've never used a gaming mouse before so I don't have anything to compare it with.
Cons: Battery life is a little short, but I don't do all-day and night gaming marathon sessions. The rear thumb buttons are rather difficult to use and I have an average sized hand.
Overall Review: Setting up the buttons and profiles takes a little bit of time, but it's worth it to get full use out of the mouse.
Not bad for the price, but I opted for something better.

Pros: It's big. It's aluminum. Great ventilation. Looks cool and the blue lighting goes great with it. Easy to mount hard drives and DVD drives. Did I say it's huge? Low price (I paid $70)
Cons: *Power supply goes up top instead of on the bottom. Also, makes it more difficult to hide wires. *I bought a Corsair H100 water cooler to go in here and it's supposed to fit any case that uses 2x 120mm fans (like this one has on the rear), but due to a structural bar design there is 1/4" too little space for it to fit. *Lack of cable management makes it very difficult to have a clean look. *Apevia light on the front sometimes doesn't turn on. *The side window panel is pretty flimsy and the handle is not necessary, but if you're like me and don't go in your case on a regular basis it shouldn't really matter. * Cheap material for outside shell and the top USB inputs. If you press it with your finger it flexes. *Cheap feel to it in general.
Overall Review: I'm coming from a CoolerMaster Storm Scout, which has become too small for my needs and wants. I bought it on sale for roughly the same price as this Apevia case, but there is a HUGE and NOTICEABLE difference in quality. This isn't a bad case, but it wasn't what I was looking for. I saw the original price of $160 and it was on sale for $70, so I was expecting $160 quality and $70 price. No, you get budget quality. If you only have $75 to spend on a case and want a full tower, this case might work for you and be deserving of five-stars based on your needs. In conclusion, this is a good case for the price. It's unfair to judge this case too harshly because my expectations were unrealistic. It was naive of me to think I might get a Lian Li quality case at this low price. I would rather spend twice as much and get something I really like.
Well worth the price

Pros: This mouse pad is well built. It has two different surfaces that effect the feel of the mouse when you move it.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: It's pricey for a mouse pad, but you get what you pay for. I had an inexpensive gaming mouse pad that was made with a surface like this one but it got scratches on it (had to have been just from extensive use of mouse on it) over time and eventually began to effect performance. I've had this one for about 4 months now and don't see any scratches on it and shows no sign of wear and tear. I'm a firm believer in buying things once. Oftentimes you will find that spending more initially will save you money in the long run. It's important to remember this isn't always the case - buying the most expensive thing doesn't mean it's the best. However, in this case it is. Buy this mouse pad and you won't have to buy another one for a very, very, very long time.
