Pros: - Not very loud even when run at full speed (I've come across much louder fans than this). - LED is good brightness; not too bright or too dim for my case lighting scheme. - Seems to move a decent amount of air.

Cons: None!

Overall Review: Am using it as the CPU fan on my trusty old Thermaltake Big Typhoon for my new Ryzen 7 rig, and it seems to be up to the task. I'm sure the rubber mounting grommets on the fan are responsible for alot of the sound cancellation through vibration dampening.

Overall Review: I've had it for a year and it continues to work great!

Overall Review: Works just fine with my webcams, no issues with Windows 10. Plug in and go!

Pros: - Lightning-fast USB media installs Windows on a modern system with an SSD in mere minutes! - Small box is easier to store over bulkier CD/DVD media - Windows 10 is a good looking GUI and incredibly-stable OS

Cons: - None yet (early days with Win10 as I write this review)

Overall Review: Having used Linux for many years I've finally come back to Microsoft and haven't been disappointed. Most things seem familiar and those new aspects that don't are relatively intuitive and easy to learn. It's no Windows 7 but thankfully it's also no Windows 8!

Pros: - Windows 10 detects and automatically installs with zero hassle - Great sounding audio over my onboard Realtek sound (especially at 24-bit/192KHz) - Reasonable price

Cons: - Older design and chipset may not compete with higher-quality onboard audio - Linux/Ubuntu compatibility is not 100% and only supported to 16-bit/44.1KHz (CD quality) max. so card not utilized to full potential

Overall Review: Installing in Windows is laughably easy whereas it was a bear for me to get functional in Ubuntu for some reason, and even then half of the time the card wouldn't be recognized on startup - no excuses for hardware this old! For a near decade-old card I find it still offers a viable upgrade for budget systems with mid-quality onboard audio. Be sure to crank up the bitrates to get the most out of the card and you shouldn't be disappointed! My HQ FLAC files sound crystal clear out of my 5.1 surround system, so I'm happy.

Overall Review: Drop-in upgrade for an old Dell system using a 1TB Western Digital drive, dropped boot time in Linux from 20+ seconds to 5! Not my first Samsung SSD and certainly won't be my last!
