DYMO LabelWriter 4XL, 4.00" x 6.00" Label Printer (1755120) - USB

Pros: Works great, this printer is great if you sell items online. You never have to buy ink cartridges or toner. I have windows 7 64 bit and it works flawless. The printer burns the image directly on the label. Sorry Newegg, I purchased one at another online store for $200 new with free shipping.

Cons: None

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 PC Game
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 PC Game

Pros: None!!! haven't been able to play it yet, I bought this from Newegg. The game arrived and I go to install on my computer and I have to type in the key code with Steam. I type the key code in and Steam says it's a duplicate key code. Even though the game was in a sealed box. I contact Steam and all it says is they received my email that's it. I can't get a hold of human person there's no phone number to call customer service. You have to deal with emails with no responses.

Cons: I think who ever is responsible for selling games with duplicate key codes or invalid key codes should get there act together! No one wants to spend there hard earned money on a game that doesn't install or play just because of a duplicate key code!!! This is not the customers problem!!! This was a sealed game it should have a valid key code.

Overall Review: I will be calling Newegg again to ether get a refund or an exchange with one that has a valid key code. What a waste of money for something that doesn't install or work. Now I know why every one buys the console version so you don't have to deal with Steam and there $$%%$" key codes"!!!

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 PC Game
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 PC Game

Pros: This is a pretty good game, now that Newegg shipped me one that has a valid key code. Newegg is a awsome place to shop for just about anything, they emailed me a prepaid shipping label to ship the other game back and in 2 days I recieved the new game. Thank you Newegg(: This game has a good single player campaign, that's about it multiplayer is no good cause of all the hacking.

Cons: I have noticed that MW3's graphics are not as sharp and crisp as the previous call of duty games I have played. I have a I-7 980X 6core cpu with 2 ATI 5970's and 12GB of Ram so bumping this to the max is no problem. Even at the max settings it still is not as sharp as the previous Call of duty games.

Overall Review: I think the next release of Call of duty, they need to fix all the hacking with the multiplayer mode. They also need to fix the graphics, they look so dull even at max settings.

Very fast in crossfire mode

DIAMOND Radeon HD 5970 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card A5970PE52G

Pros: I bought 2 of these cards to play BF3, they are very fast. I down loaded fraps to check the FPS, I'm getting around 200 FPS in BF3 with ultra settings and 1920x1080. My rig is a I7 980 1366LGA 6 core X58 chipset 12gigs memory OC to 3.8 Ghz 2 5970's in Crossfire mode

Cons: They run very hot in Crossfire mode only, after they get hot they start to throttle down. My FPS goes from 205 FPS to 70-90 in about 20-30 min. Temps after 30 mins are 91c with 100% fan speed and no over clock. I bought 1 of these first on black Friday and it ran fine with BF3 no over heating till I got the second one installed then the temps went from 55c under load to 91c with 2 installed. Also very long cards make sure you have a full tower case and at least a 850 watt power supply for 1 and a 1000+ watt for 2 cards. Also the drivers are buggy as well when I first boot the fan will go high then slows down then 1 min later the screen goes black and comes back on. Any time you go in to the catalyst and the performance tab the screen goes black for a few seconds. This alone can be annoying. There's no reason for the screen to black out even if it's only a couple of seconds.

Overall Review: I think in crossfire mode these cards are placed to close to each other for proper ventilation. They are only about 3-4mm apart. They would work great in crossfire mode if you installed a liquid cooling system. I might install liquid cooling or sell them and buy a GTX 590. For the other people out there who are having lock up problems with these cards. Make sure your power supply has enough power you should have at least a 850 watt for 1 card or 1000 watt for 2 cards. You need to make sure you have the 8 pin and a 6 pin connectors plugged in. And while gaming make sure to turn the fan up to 100%.

CM Storm Trooper - Gaming Full Tower Computer Case with Handle and External 2.5" Drive Dock
CM Storm Trooper - Gaming Full Tower Computer Case with Handle and External 2.5" Drive Dock

Pros: I purchased this case mainly to build a gaming computer. I needed a case that will except the 2 ATI 5970 video cards I bought on black Friday, as these cards are over 12" long This case is the perfect set up has plenty of fans, lots of room you could put just about anything in this case. Has removable filters a tool box, fan controller, USB 3.0, and water cooling friendly. I love this case it's worth every penny I paid.

Cons: It's a little heavy but you have to expect that with a gaming tower.
