Awesome!

BIOSTAR TA790GXE 128M AM3/AM2+ AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
BIOSTAR TA790GXE 128M AM3/AM2+ AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Awesome motherboard. Running it with a 4 gig kit of PQI RAM. I have not had one problem with it so far. A nifty feature of it is if you OC to high and it wont post, after about 30 seconds, it'll reset itself and post for you. Running with a Rana 435, 4 gigs of RAM, XFX 5770. Great stable system. Already ordered one for my brother since his mobo doesnt like the 5770 I got him. All in all, I recommend this to anyone.

Cons: Weird placement of SATA ports.

Overall Review: All in all...AWESOME mobo.

Logitech G700s rocks

Logitech Recertified 910-003584 G700s Wired / Wireless Laser Rechargeable Gaming Mouse
Logitech Recertified 910-003584 G700s Wired / Wireless Laser Rechargeable Gaming Mouse

Pros: The mouse feels solid in the hand, glides smoothly, is evenly weighed, and all of the buttons are re-assignable. It tracks great on all of the surfaces I have tried it on, and range and interference is not an issue in wireless mode, and I have a wireless AP right by my desk. Nary an issue.

Cons: The side buttons take some getting used to, and they tend to feel a little more on the mushy side, as opposed to a nice solid clicky feelings on all of the top buttons.

Overall Review: Solid, dependable, all around awesome gaming mouse. Cannot be beat. The included Eneloop battery is awesome as well.

Works as intended

Seagate ST90250N1A1AS-RK 250GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Notebook Hard Drive Retail kit
Seagate ST90250N1A1AS-RK 250GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5" Notebook Hard Drive Retail kit

Pros: It's a laptop hard drive that is quiet and does what it's supposed to do. Nothing else to say really.

Cons: As said above, it works perfectly with no hassles, so no cons.

Overall Review: Purchased this hard drive to replace a HDD that died in my Vaio, and wanted a mechanical drive for storage reasons. Fit fine, booted up and formatted no problem, and installed windows and ran with no issues at all. All in all a perfect little HDD for the use and if you're looking at a mechanical drive replacement for a laptop, or need storage in the 2.5 inch form factor for whatever reason (HTPC maybe), this is a great drive.

Simply Awesome!

EVERCOOL HPFA-10025 100mm Ever Lubricate CPU Cooler (Buffalo for AMD)
EVERCOOL HPFA-10025 100mm Ever Lubricate CPU Cooler (Buffalo for AMD)

Pros: Simply awesome! I have this mounted on my PhenomII x3 720 unlocked to quad core at 3.2 Ghz (PhenomII x4 955 specs), and with the stock cooler, it had a tendency to shut down. With this puppy on it, it doesn't get very hot as all...awesome awesome product

Cons: Maybe the perception of build quality (See below)?

Overall Review: When I first unpacked it, I thought I had made a mistake. This thing is light, doesn't seem to have many fins, and not a lot of copper. However, don't let that fool you, this thing WORKS. It works awesomely well. Combined it with a NZXT Phantom, and have the fan pointing up into the huge exhaust fan...you cannot go wrong.

This thing is AWESOME

Pros: Huge-Roomy-Sturdy. Cable management for this thing is a breeze, keeps ALL my temps in check, and gives me lots of room to play with. Comes with an abundance of screws, so you'll have extra no doubt. The tool-less locking design for the 3.5 inch bays is nice and tight, so no wiggling for me. The hard drive trays took some getting used to, overall very awesome. Provides a filter for the bottom mounted PSU, so no dust gets in. Has a large amount of rubber on the bottom, so this thing doesn't move. Also a fair amount of space under the PSU for airflow.

Cons: The Black is a bit hard to work of inside when you're in a dimly lit room... None overall

Overall Review: Awesome Awesome Awesome case. Seriously. My first fulltower since my Thermaltake Xaser V back in like 2003, and never again will I go to a Mid-Tower... Also my first NZXT purchase, but I know it won't be the last.

Does this fit...

Pros: Size?

Cons: Size? See below

Overall Review: Does this case fit a Radeon 6950? That is my biggest concern at the moment. Want to see it it does before I order it!
