Pros: Hi there people!! I will tell you about this card a few things. It is a good card. Now that it shows real specs. about the memory it is ready for an examination:0 I took this one to my friends place and put it in to his comp to compare it with his nVidia 8800 GT Superclocked ed. So he has intel quad core and 3 gigs of DDR 2 . We used them both in turn on crysis and Call of duty 4 , Need for speed, Medieval II total war and here are the results: ATI beat nVidia in Total war game where you need a lot of stream processors but was on the same level with that GT in Crysis. Stays very cool and oveclockes well too. I recommend to use this card on amd based mainboards with ATI chipsets like 790X or 790FX . So after the test on my friends intel based system I have tested it on my MSI K9A2-CF AMD quad system . So it did better job in crysis , an the game looked great!! I got to this place called The core and it gave my from 30 to 40 Frames Per second!! Wow now that is result!

Cons: Little to thick:-)

Overall Review: going to pare it with 3870 X2 this summer:-)

Most Critical Review

Good Laptop, but took three returns to get what I was promised

Lenovo 15.6" Intel Core i7-4810MQ 8GB Memory 500GB SSD Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit NE5-30907

Pros: Fair price for a very strong high performance laptop workstation. Came with Nvidia card.

Cons: The unit is listed as Grade A. The first laptop came in with damaged charger or battery and would not charge. The replacement unit arrived with damaged plastic parts on the rear Ethernet port, plus some other visible cosmetic damage. The third replacement unit was in great shape and I decided to keep it. However, after a while the battery started giving me problems. The unit would not charge when on or off. Some troubleshooting fixed the problem. The battery does not hold the charge for long.

Overall Review: When talking to the Joy Systems, organization that provides warranty for these laptops, I had to convince the rep. that when unit is titled as Grade A, then it must not have any visible cosmetic damage, not to mention battery problems. I hate to return products, since I spend time to research items and vendors and usually rely on the accuracy of the advertising page. In this case, I am disappointed that such a nice laptop is being sold with cheap replacement battery, which does not hold charge for a long time and can give problems when charging. The unit's price around $580 must tell buyers that the battery must be of high quality. If it is not, then what is the point in paying around $600 for a refurbished unit and get poorly functioning battery?

Works as expected, great deal.

Pros: Professional workstation look, quite operation, good cable management, nice price.

Cons: Not a bit deal for me, but for some workstation/server boards, where multiple SATA ports are lined up in two rows on the side, connecting SATA cable to the first row (closer to the board) will be tricky. The cable comes up from the bottom section (separated by the metal box where PSU is nested) and then has to pivot through an opening that is in the same place where the SATA ports on the board are. Again, this can be an issue only when using full size ATX server or workstation board of high end with multiple SATA placed on the side in two rows.

Overall Review: Overall, a very good case for any needs. All doors line up well, parts are good quality.

Better than other cheaper replacement batteries.

So far the battery works great, holds the charge for much longer than the older one.

The advertising specified that the phone has no scratches on a screen, but the actual item had a big scratch on the screen.The seller took a bit long to respond, but once we established contact, then the return had been processed in good order.
