Most Favorable Review

Low power, low heat, low noise

AMD Athlon X2 4850e - Athlon X2 Dual-Core 2.5 GHz Socket AM2 45W Processor - ADH4850DOBOX
AMD Athlon X2 4850e - Athlon X2 Dual-Core 2.5 GHz Socket AM2 45W Processor - ADH4850DOBOX

Pros: It's exactly what I needed, low energy CPU with the ability to multitask with ease. I'm either in Photoshop and need to get something off the web or using AutoCad and Excel. Either way, this is getting it done and keeping my power bill low. Paired with the new 780G chipset, this is great.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Silverstone SG-01, Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-SH, Cooler Master GeminII, 2x2mb G.Skill, Asus 3650 SIlent, WD 500gb, Nexus 400w 80+

Most Critical Review

2 weeks to arrive, failed after one month

JLAB Sneakerhead (Black/White/Red) METAL-SNK-BOX JBuds Metal Earbuds with Universal Mic
JLAB Sneakerhead (Black/White/Red) METAL-SNK-BOX JBuds Metal Earbuds with Universal Mic

Pros: They're red

Cons: These took two weeks to arrive. About a week of which was someone putting a box in a shipping container. Fast forward a month and the right earbud has failed. Wrote to RMA and get a replacement while in the warranty time and nobody has gotten back to me in four days. Save your money, get anyone else's earbuds.

Overall Review: Would not recommend. Am here shopping for something else today. Certainly won't be by JLAB.

Super fast, super easy!

Overall Review: Popped the hood, dropped the drive, watched my speed go from 150mbs to 2500.So, like, that was exactly as advertised.I was replacing a 5400 rpm drive so I cloned it and copied it over, about 1 gb of data, and it took about 30 minutes total. But the entire process was staggeringly easy and it's been speedier all around since. Shouldn't have ever put that 5400 rpm drive in in the first place but SDDs were too expensive at the time.

Vroom vroom!

Overall Review: Replaced a laptop's 4 gb RAM that it shipped with and it's an all new computer. Open, remove, replace, startup. Seconds to do, minutes less boot up and every thing else!

Impossible to have too many

Overall Review: When I need a mouse for a laptop I go for this one. USB? Sure. Bluetooth? Got it. More than one computer even? Oh yeah. Battery life is great and it only needs a AA anyway. Great for adults but still comfortable for kids.

AMD Ryzen 5 3rd Gen - RYZEN 5 3600 Matisse (Zen 2) 6-Core 3.6 GHz (4.2 GHz Max Boost) Socket AM4 65W 100-100000031BOX Desktop Processor

Overall Review: My processor wasn't causing any bottlenecking, it was just a Ryzen 3 that I was overclocking too much. Adding this many cores really made everything so much faster and just being able to drop in a Gen 3 processor into the same slot: thanks AMD, you just make it simple.
