Most Critical Review

extremely dissapointed

ASUS P5N-D LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 750i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
ASUS P5N-D LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 750i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: its copper design and 750i chipset to sli

Cons: extremely disapointed, i was reading reviews on the board and it seemed like a good buy, i have never bought asus boards or anything made by asus but most of my friends have items made by asus and they like their equipment ex. monitors, etc.. so i thought i would give them a try. i was wrong and way off. as soon as i popped everything in the board would not turn on, with everything hooked up my computer looks like its going to fire up and the cathodes blink for like half a second and nothing happens. i was so ready to game when i got this thing in the mail and after researching about it and checking cmos jumpers, clearing cmos, replacing battery, trying 1 dimm or 0 dimms, only 1 sata drive, no ide drives, it just would not turn on. the motherboard seems to be getting power but does not fire up cuz the green light on the board is on just doesnt want to turn on. i also made sure the front panel case connectors were properly placed like 20 times.

Overall Review: first asus board turns out to be bad so i am very disapointed, but not angry. i just dont understand why companies feel the need to pumped out inventory for clients without fully testing them before. i have bought 3 gigabytes 1xfx, 1 evga, 1 foxconn board from newegg and other websites and have never had 1 problem starting up the board and working. i was a little mad to wait longer to game. i am in the rma process and i dont think ill get another 1, just get me the refund so i can buy an xfx board

Awesome bang for the buck

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 04G-P4-3975-KR 4GB SSC GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card
EVGA GeForce GTX 970 04G-P4-3975-KR 4GB SSC GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card

Pros: No need to grab a 980 with this guy. Does it all BF4/COD/HOTS/The Witcher all maxed out at 1080p. I have 2 SLI right now to support some DSR playing at 4k. The witcher does only get about 40 fps @ 4k but no biggie. The card idles at about 35-40 and tops at 70 degrees. I have had it for a long time and no issues!

Cons: None really other than I think of other than hoping to improve the cooling even better

Awesome little speaker

Hercules WAE Outdoor IP64-Certified Water and Dust Resistant Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker w/ microphone - BTP04
Hercules WAE Outdoor IP64-Certified Water and Dust Resistant Outdoor Bluetooth Speaker w/ microphone - BTP04

Pros: -Loud and with nice bass -Mobile -Water resistant and dust resistant, it really is -Loud -Comes with the wrist strap -Got it when it was on sale for $59.99 -Battery life is fantastic, full day of playing either at the beach, camping, gym, I use it all around the house too.

Cons: -If you crank up the speaker too loud with the source the speaker can actually bounce and hit so hard it moves off desks, it dropped a couple times while I was in the shower -Not packaged with a wall charger -Since I did get it on sale, it is not worth the regular retail price

Overall Review: Overall this handy speaker is awesome for camping, outdoors, gym, sporting events, and the best for the beach since it is dust proof. It is small enough to fit nicely in a backpack but loud enough to be a force. Overall awesome speaker to have

Awesome 1080p tablet

Lenovo Miix 2 11 2in1 Tablet- Intel Core i3 4GB Memory 128GB SSD 11.6" Touchscreen Windows 8.1 with Dock (59414153)
Lenovo Miix 2 11 2in1 Tablet- Intel Core i3 4GB Memory 128GB SSD 11.6" Touchscreen Windows 8.1 with Dock (59414153)

Pros: -Touchscreen worked, didnt have to open up the tablet -detachable -i3 with 4gb and 128gb ssd -Magnetic connection to the keyboard dock, reminds me of the surface pro -Comes with the keyboard -2 usb with micro hdmi -Really diggin the SSD in this with the space/performance ratio. -1080p display, also good for projecting or using another monitor -Great use with microsoft office for productivity and other apps through the microsoft store

Cons: -Not for gaming or 3D intensive applications, but for basic use which is not really a con, but whatever -Fixed angle on the keyboard stand. When the tablet is docked into the keyboard you cannot move it. It has a fixed angle -Not really a con to this product, but I wished the Microsoft store was up to speed on the competition with the amount of apps offered. There are dragging there feet

Overall Review: I upgraded to this 2 in 1 because my old 2 in 1 is slow and extremely annoying. I used to have the Lenovo ideapad k3011w, but that one runs an atom processor and slow on some newer apps and web apps. I mostly use this one for my mobile computing computer/tablet because I have a gaming computer, but I enjoy sitting on the couch sometimes and using this one instead for web browsing, online shopping, etc. It does what I meant to use it for and then some. It can play some low res games, but nothing really more. Great for web based applications, web browsing, Microsoft office, other productivity applications, some games but none of the newer ones.
