STOP!! This is the one!

Lamptron FC5 V2 Black Fan Controller, 4 Channels 30W per Channel, LCD Display w/ 7 Colors, Aluminum Front Bezel, Large Display for Fan Speed, Voltage, plus Temperature & Fan Failure Alarm

Pros: This fan controller looks amazing! It looks great on my CM Storm Trooper case, and its functionality is the greatest. The screen is easy to read, and isn't overbearing like some that I've seen

Cons: None whatsoever, you can't go wrong with this

Overall Review: The instructions tell you to mount the fan controller in your drive bay first and then plug everything in. My advice would be to plug everything in first and the screw the controller into your drive bay. This way you don't have to try to cram your hands into your case in order to plug in the fan controllers etc

Most Critical Review

Gigabyte RMA Horrible

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card GV-R795WF3-3GD
GIGABYTE Radeon HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card GV-R795WF3-3GD

Pros: Handled games smoothly

Cons: Gigabyte repair is not worth buying this product. My DVI port went out so I sent it back to Gigabyte's repair center. After waiting two weeks, they told me that my board was warped and the warranty was gone. Now my GPU is broken and they will not work with me

Overall Review: Don't buy

Great Mouse

Pros: Great mouse, easy to use, very responsive

Cons: Blue led, not red to match my case. Not their fault

Do it the right way!

Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound AS5-3.5G

Pros: Used this with my Hyper 212 Evo and it dropped my cpu temps by 10 C. Comes with plenty of paste for several applications. TIP: Before applying it, make sure you know how to do it the right way. Several people have their own methods, some work and some don't. If you don't apply it right, you may even get worse temps than before

Cons: None

Pros: This thing is clean. Heavy duty, love that it is FULLY MODULAR, and the cables are sheathed.

Cons: NONE!!!!!!

Drop it low

Pros: This beast dropped my cpu temps down 10 C, and when I stress test it won't go over 42 C. I have no complaints

Cons: A little difficult to install while getting the thermal paste down the right way, but it works like a charm
