Nice, trouble free upgrade

Pros: -Single slot, will fit in every PC. -No upgrade of power supply required. -Low noise, fan rarely never go over 50% (fan speed always at 0 in 2D environment. -Excellent performance for a middle level card.
Cons: -Some ATI 4830 cards are just a tad more expansive (but definitively require a bigger power supply and dual slot). -No DVI to HDMI adapter included.
Overall Review: It is an excellent upgrade if you are a casual gamer.
Works on Alienware AMD Aurora Ryzen edition

Pros: -Works with the Alienware factory installed memory. -Significantly cheaper then the factory installed memory.
Overall Review: The 32 GB of Crucial DDR 2666 extends the 32 GB 2666 HyperX factory memory on my Alienware Aurora AMD Ryzen edition, for a total of 64 GB. Many articles on the Web warns about incompatible memory with the Alienware factory memory. The Crucial Ballistix works without issue, at least that DR 2666. It is not the fastest memory but as I had 32 GB of factory memory at that speed, look safer to get matching speed. I use the Alienware computer for development, not gaming. I need a lot of memory and can sacrifice a bit of memory speed that probably would not make much difference for my workflows.
Works fine with early 2009 iMac

Pros: Put it in my early 2009 iMac (2.93 Ghz) and was immediately recognized. Works fine for over a week now. More memory helps with VmWare fusion.
Cons: 8GB Laptop DDR3 memory modules are still a bit expensive but not as outrageous as it was a year ago.
Overall Review: Mushkin was the best price among the memory brand I trust. Newegg service awesome as usual: shipped next day from Memphis and arrived overnight (Alabama).
I think I prefer a 5400 rpm...

Pros: -Fast. -Barely more expansive compare to a 5400 rpm drive.
Cons: -More noisy then a 5400 hard drive. -Computer fan seems to run more often compare to older 5400 rpm drive.
Overall Review: I question my choice more then the product. It seems a reliable/fast hard drive but be aware that a 7200 hard drive produce more heat and more noise. It does feel a tad faster but I am not sure I like the trade off.
I love it

Pros: -Very easy to install -USB and eSata connections -Come with everything including eSata cable and even a small screw driver -Good looking
Cons: -Price slightly increase (3$) since I bought it.
Overall Review: With the eSata, I can even have Vista installed and booting on an external drive. Beware that plugin eSata might require a reboot for the drive to be recognized (seems to depend on the PC).
Works in HP DV9500

Pros: Have 2 of those in an HP DV9500 (Intel). Works great with Vista 64 bits. Be aware that Vista 32 bits recognize only around 3GB max. That memory is incredibly cheap these days!
Cons: None.
