Most Favorable Review

Does the job...

Rosewill RCW-H9010 - 3.5mm Stereo Splitter Cable - 6 Inches
Rosewill RCW-H9010 - 3.5mm Stereo Splitter Cable - 6 Inches

Pros: Does what it's designed to do.

Cons: The plastic surrounding the plug is somewhat larger than you'd expect, so if you have an port that is inset somewhat in the housing, you'll have to do like I did and cut away some of the extra plastic.

Most Critical Review

It's ok...

AeroCool HorsePower 1020 W ATX12V V2.2 / EPS12V V2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Modular Active PFC Modular LED SLI Power Supply
AeroCool HorsePower 1020 W ATX12V V2.2 / EPS12V V2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Modular Active PFC Modular LED SLI Power Supply

Pros: It is quiet and cool, and having a separate switch to turn on the LED is nice.

Cons: Was shipped without a US power cable, but contained a European plug. Not that big of deal, as I had extra. But still a power supply should always include all the necessary plugs. The modular cabling is not all that modular. There are two PCIe 8pin cables that are not modular and are hardwired, along with two PCIe that are modular. Just make them all modular, as this is advertised ad modular.

Overall Review: Recommendation: Look elsewhere. I have purchased 10 other modular power supplies from this manufacturer, but will not be returning to this model again.

Super Quiet!

Pros: Super quiet, multiple options for mounting.

Cons: Not the biggest air mover, but the quiet more than makes up for it.

Annoyingly unstable

ASRock FM2A88M EXTREME4+ R2.0 FM2+ / FM2 AMD A88X (Bolton D4) USB 3.0 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: None

Cons: With known working RAM and CPU, this would lock up, give memory errors, random blue screens sometimes at idle, sometimes at load.

Overall Review: My third recent RMA for ASRock boards. Sorry ASRock, never again.

Solid inexpensive performer

CORSAIR CX Series CX430 430W 80 PLUS BRONZE Active PFC ATX12V & EPS12V Power Supply
CORSAIR CX Series CX430 430W 80 PLUS BRONZE Active PFC ATX12V & EPS12V Power Supply

Pros: Only 140mm deep, which is important in some case scenarios. At $16 (after rebate) there is no reason not to pick up one, if nothing more than to have on hand as a backup.

Cons: Not modular version, but for $16 for the non-modular you can't really call it a con since they do actually make a CX430M (modular).

Quietest Fan I've Ever Owned

Pros: Sound: Dead quiet. Anti vibration mounting methods are a nice touch. Looks: Stellar design looks amazing in any case!

Cons: Not a huge mover of air, but the silence makes up for it.

Phenomenal products, ridiculously slow shipping.

I absolutely love Be Quiet! products, but it shouldn't take 3 weeks to get a couple case fans. Sure, they are the best, but why such slow order processing and shipping times?
