Pros: Price & capacity. Perfect for an affordable, large, speedy game drive.

Cons: Newegg shipped this in an envelope.. Not a fan of that. Box was a little dinged up.

Overall Review: To the reviewer complaining about size and speed.. Hardware manufactures use the decimal system (1000). Operating systems use a binary system (1024). This drive is 960,000,000,000 decimal bytes, but divide by 1024/1024/1024 and you get 894GB by the time your OS allocates it. All drives are like this, since forever. Regarding speed, drive manufacturers advertise max speed, not average or sustained speed. Your speeds will vary based on many factors. I am getting 528/497 read/write with crystal on a 5 year old z68 board. Not bad for a budget drive on a dated controller.

Pros: Moves air like crazy.. Very bright LEDs. Would be good for a hot case - If you can deal with the noise.

Cons: Loud.. I have to turn my TV up 3 more notches.. They are that loud.. Sounds like a microwave running on my desk.

Overall Review: I have 3 of these in an Antec 300 case. These fans are LOUD.. I purchased these based on the reviews of people saying they were quiet... These people must not know what they are talking about.. I've owned over 30 case fans over the years ranging from 80mm to 120mm, In many systems.. These are the loudest. I can hear my computer running several rooms away. They are so loud I am going to have to look for other alternatives.

Pros: I can't find a pro..

Cons: See below..

Overall Review: I decided it was time to replace my Creative T3000 system after 7 years of use, they were quite beat up. I purchased these T3300's, expecting same-class performance, but NO, these are not even close to the T3000, which were the same retail price 7 years ago. I am no audiophile, but these sound downright lousy and I can't live with them. I could tell within a few seconds that these were going back. I have a hard time understanding all of these good reviews! I tried them through a Creative X-Fi Titanium and onboard Realtek ALC892, bad and bad. The build quality is also poor, very light, cheap plastic, very disposable. The shiny surface on one speakers came scuffed. Creative seems to be slipping. These speakers would make more sense at the $20 price point. If you are wanting quality sound at a budget, get some decent headphones. Headphones will always have better frequency ranges than computer speaker systems. If you spend the same amount on a quality set of headphones you will be blown away. If you want good desktop/entertainment system speakers, avoid these and spend more..

Pros: Great card (as you can see from my previous review)

Cons: Must install software of it will overheat (see other thoughts) Not a con, just something that is easy to overlook. I see people complaining about high fermi temps all over the internet, but I do not think most people realize that you need fan profiles..

Overall Review: MAKE SURE THAT YOU INSTALL EVGA PRECISION!! (or any fan controller) The fan will just stay at one speed and the card overheat if you do not. I typically just avoid all manufacturer drivers/programs and just install the NVIDIA drivers. In this case, that was a bad idea. I was getting high temps around 85C while gaming. I then relized that my fan was not adjusting. I installed EVGA Precision, and now the fan throttles properly. Temps now rarely go over 70C.

Pros: Appears to be a quality board and has been stable for several days of stress testing. Overclocked my 2500k to a modest 4.2ghz, with plenty of room to go. 8-phase power and high quality transistors are favorable.

Cons: I am docking this one egg for poor driver support. When trying to manually download the drivers from the MSI site, there is one cryptically labeled zip with no OS description. When I try to run setup, it says "does not support your version of Windows". I am running Windows7-64. At least they could tell you what it DOES work on. MSI Live update is VERY junky software. I tried to get the drivers, but it was impossibly slow and encountered many errors. I gave up and had to use some of the drivers off of the disk.. My BIOS temperatures are not correct. I used Real Temp and Coretemp, and their temps agreed with each other. The bios is about 10+ degrees warmer.

Overall Review: OC Genie seems pretty gimmicky and worthless, but I used it anyway. It simply sets the sandy bridge multiplier to a predetermined 42 (4.2ghz), it is not smart in any way. I could have set the multiplier in two clicks, but I just hit the OC Genie button instead.

Pros: I do not think you can beat the sound for the price. Freakishly good for under $40. I am not an audiophile but these are the best headphones I have heard. I thought they were better than my friend's $70 Seinnheiser set. Also, very comfortable, no pressure points.

Cons: These are HUGE and look ridiculous. Don't get these if you want to look cool. My girlfriend laughs at me when I wear them lol.

Overall Review: Headphones put out a wider range of sound than most speakers. If you want an improved gaming and music experience these are a steal! Be sure to mess with your audio drivers, they can greatly enhance the sound, particularly with headphones. I plugged mine in and thought they sounded great, but after tweaking my drivers I was slightly blow away.
