Fantastic Item

Sunbeam Silent Storm IC-SS-SVBK Black/Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Sunbeam Silent Storm IC-SS-SVBK Black/Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: The three 120mm fans are delicious and the case is very sturdy, quiet, and has great airflow with your own front fan installed. I am surprised that this case sells for such a low price considering that it is of such high quality. This was my first time with a "tool-less" case, and the tool-less clips work quite well, actually. Everything else was easy to assemble and disassemble.

Cons: There is no front fan included, but you can install your own very quickly. The side window view is also somewhat small, but this doesn't affect my computer's performance, so, so what? And the second external 3.5" drive slot doesn't match up with its position on the rack inside the case, so I could install one 3.5" external device.

Overall Review: Great case, especially for the price. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Rosewill Turbo series RT550-135-SL 550W ATX 12V ver.2.2 / EPS 12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready Power Supply

Pros: Silent, cool temperatures. Probably would've been great if it wasn't defective! (Read below)

Cons: The first time I booted up my computer this PSU caused me a plethora of problems and a horrific situation with my computer. Long story short, simply plugging in the power cord caused my entire system to boot up. Shutting it down via Windows or the power button caused it to enter some bizarre state between standby and shut down. I am now RMA'ing it for a refund.

Overall Review: The defect in this PSU really caused me alot of trouble. Cables were tightly bound, but had a decent length. I'm not a big fan of molex/SATA daisy chains either. All I have to say is, you get what you pay for - a PSU isn't something you want to be cheap about.

PERFECT

ADATA Vitesta 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model ELJKD1A16K
ADATA Vitesta 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model ELJKD1A16K

Pros: It's memory: inexpensive, quality, fast, what more could you ask for? Worked straight out of the box, correct timings, speed, voltage were set immediately.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Would buy it again! Needed it to upgrade a friend's Compaq which only takes DDR2-533.

BUY THIS NOW

ADATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model AD2U800B1G5-DRH
ADATA 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model AD2U800B1G5-DRH

Pros: Works. I have had no problems of any kind with this memory! The heatspreaders I received also look much better than the product description. They don't say "Vitesta" (whatever the !@#$ that means) on them, and are a nice crimson color.

Cons: [Insert lame joke about how this RAM does not do chores, cook a romantic dinner, etc.]

Overall Review: Used this on a PC Chips motherboard (A13G+ v3.0) and encountered zero hitches.

A Definite Buy

G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL4D-2GBHK
G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL4D-2GBHK

Pros: Fast, very fast. Excellent performance. Does what it's supposed to do. Mine came with an azure blue heatsink, not white. But it does look nice with my blue LED fans. Booted up fine on my ABIT IP35 motherboard, no changes needed whatsoever.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: The "Great Skill in Memory World!!" slogan cracks me up.
