Most Favorable Review

Works as expected

ADATA 32GB UV128 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive (AUV128-32G-RBY)
ADATA 32GB UV128 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Flash Drive (AUV128-32G-RBY)

Pros: Great bundle price on set of three

Cons: Not the prettiest design

Overall Review: You plug it in, the computer recognizes it, data reads and writes. It's not rocket science. I used mine to boot install Windows 10 on a machine I was upgrading and it worked like a champ.

Most Critical Review

DOA

ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (WiFi 6) AMD AM4 (3rd Gen Ryzen) ATX Gaming Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS FlashBack, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and AURA Sync)
ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming (WiFi 6) AMD AM4 (3rd Gen Ryzen) ATX Gaming Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS FlashBack, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and AURA Sync)

Pros: Good looking board with great features for the money.

Cons: It's dead, Jim. Arrived with a few bent connector pins. Not the most impressive build quality.

Overall Review: Unfortunately this board wouldn't post for me. No beeps, no diagnostic lights, only the gently swirling RGB feature lights to let me know it was getting power. The TUF Gaming X-570 Plus that I procured locally as a replacement worked just fine, so I'm very certain this was just a dead board. Stuff happens, and I would have been happy to keep this board if it had worked, but I was under time constraints and couldn't wait out Newegg's return and replace process. I'm just returning it for a refund.

Easy install, great results after setup

Solidigm P41 Plus 2TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 NVMe Gen4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SSDPFKNU020TZX1
Solidigm P41 Plus 2TB M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 NVMe Gen4 Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) SSDPFKNU020TZX1

Pros: Great performance for the price

Cons: None yet

Overall Review: Great buy on sale and an improvement over my old gen 3 boot drive. Results shown are after using the Solidigm optimizing software. No complaints.

Nice upgrade

v-Color Prism Pro DDR4 32GB (2 x 16GB) 3600MHz (PC4-28800) CL16 AMD Optimized RGB Gaming Desktop Ram Memory Module UDIMM Hynix IC Jet Black(TL1636816C-E6PRKWK)
v-Color Prism Pro DDR4 32GB (2 x 16GB) 3600MHz (PC4-28800) CL16 AMD Optimized RGB Gaming Desktop Ram Memory Module UDIMM Hynix IC Jet Black(TL1636816C-E6PRKWK)

Pros: Good price to performance Groovy colors

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: I wanted more working space and liked the specs on this pair. It's running great at 3600 MHz with the correct timings, although I had to put them in DIMM slots 2 and 4 to get the XMP to work. A570 Aorus Elite with Ryzen 7 3700X. The new rainbow caterpillars in my case are pretty cool, too.

Nice PS but iincluded cables are crazy short

CORSAIR SF Series SF450 450W 80 PLUS GOLD Active PFC SFX SFX12V Micro ATX Full Modular Power Supply
CORSAIR SF Series SF450 450W 80 PLUS GOLD Active PFC SFX SFX12V Micro ATX Full Modular Power Supply

Pros: Small, efficient and quiet

Cons: Obviously designed for a smaller box than I was using, the cables were too short for me.

Overall Review: I bought this PS for an HTPC build and I wanted something small and quiet, and it happened to be on sale. The included cables wouldn't stretch far enough to reach the motherboard connectors or one of my SATA devices. Luckily I had extra cables from a prior build otherwise I would have had to buy new cables or extensions. The 24V motherboard cable, for example, is roughly a foot long. I'm a fan of Corsair modular power supplies and have used them successfully in the past, this is the first hiccup I've experienced. Just be aware of this possibility, because it caught me by surprise.

Great choice for Ryzen 5 5600 CPU

ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Gaming Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS Flashback, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync)
ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming AMD AM4 Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 & 3rd Gen Ryzen ATX Gaming Motherboard (PCIe 4.0, 2.5Gb LAN, BIOS Flashback, HDMI 2.1, Addressable Gen 2 RGB Header and Aura Sync)

Pros: HDMI 2.1 output allows 4k @ 60 Hz Boot Ryzen 5000 series out of the box

Cons: The first time I tried this card (wifi version) it was DOA. Time constraints forced me to use another card for that build, tried it again on a price drop.

Overall Review: HTPC build with 5600G processor, 16 Gb Corsair Vengeance 3200 DDR4 and Samsung 970 EVO PLUS M.2. Works like a champ.

These guys always ship quickly with no problems or drama, and I appreciate that more than anything. Their product selection is top notch, too.

Delayed shipping, had to return

I bought from these guys because my item was shown as in-stock and would supposedly ship quickly, but the seller delayed shipping for a week and pushed it out of my acceptable delivery window. I tried to cancel the order before it physically shipped, but because a shipping label was printed they wouldn't stop their process, forcing me to refuse shipment from the delivery service. End result: power supply traveled back and forth across the country for no good reason. Still waiting for a refund and not favorably impressed by seller's customer service.

Fast shipping, great merchandise

Recommended seller. This computer case beat the rest of the order to my doorstep by several days and the packaging was more than sturdy. Everything was just as expected and I couldn't be happier.
