Pros: -The exact same hardware as Netgear's previous top-of-the-line R6300V2 -Solid connection -Fast throughput -Pretty decent range -USB3.0 port Attractive style -Minimal LEDs on the front (no blinking super distracting LEDs). -Flashable to R6300V2

Cons: I've had no issues in my ~2months ownership

Overall Review: Do some Googling. Since this device is essential a R6300 V2 AC1750 router running custom (handicapped) firmware, it can be fully upgraded into a R6300 V2 in less than 15 minutes. I performed the procedure without incident immediately after opening the package.

Pros: The X1900XT is really a powerful graphics card. IT scored 10140 3Dmarks in 3D Mark 05, untweaked on the default benchmark. Chewed through NFS: Mostwanted on maxed settings with only an occassional hiccup while driving through trees.

Cons: Comon Sapphire! This is (was?) a high-end vid card! There is NO bundled software. What a joke! My X1900XT died quietly in its sleep. I booted my OC up only to see random lines and other artifacts all over the monitor. Only lasted maybe 3 weeks. :-(

Overall Review: I RMA'ed the card to Newegg since Sapphire seems...reluctant to mention any warranty info on their website. Just replaced it with an X1900XTX from MSI. So far so good. AsRock 939Dual-SATA2, A64 3700+ @ 2.45Ghz, 2 GB PC4000

Pros: The price is right. $200+ for a router is INSANE.

Cons: 1) Had a locked SSID from the factory, and network key wasn't provided. Had to connect via the WPS button. 2) Did not work out of the box. Had to manually configure the WAN connection for Dynamic IP from my ISP. That should be the default setting! 3) worked alright for the first day, now 2 days after purchase requires CONSTANT rebooting. 4) NO support from TP Link. There is only one firmware release for this router, and it's 8 months old!

Overall Review: FYI, this is the Archer C7 V2 that I currently have. Purchased 8/23 and being returned 8/26. TP Link,support your products!

Pros: +Quiet fans +Handsome case

Cons: -flimsy side/top panel. It actually bent sitting on my desk while I assembled the HTPC. -Too many power connectors! This case is a cable management nightmare. -Cover is secured by regular screws, not thumb screws. -3.5" drive bay is right behind the 120mm main fan. It blocks a lot of air flow.

Overall Review: I bought this for a HTPC build. This case is quite a bit larger than I needed/was hoping for. There seems to be a lot of wasted space inside. For a portable gaming machine this case would be great. Be prepared to cut power cables off if you add a video card and optical drive. I'm not sure there would be enough places to secure cables! Not a bad case, just more than I need I suppose.

Pros: +First H55 mini-ITX board available. +Seems to have some decent OC options, but I haven't looked too deep, and don't plan on it. +Wireless N worked right away. +Windows 7 immediately recognized all the hardware and was able to install the correct drivers, which is good because...

Cons: -The included driver CD is complete JUNK. Upon inserting the disk I got an error that read something along the lines of "driver not compatible with chip set." Some drivers are on Zotac's website, the rest Windows can handle, except for the LAN driver. I'm not using that anyway. I'm an early adopter; perhaps the correct driver CD doesn't exist yet. -Most of the holes on the I/O shield weren't punched out.

Overall Review: HTPC running: This Zotac ITX H55 board, core i5 650, 2x2GB AData 1333, 1.5TB WD Green HDD, Silverstone SG06 case. I'm not sure why, but it took FOREVER to install Windows 7. Playing a 1080P video in XBMC resulted in a ~20%CPU utilization. a Divx movie ~5% CPU. That Intel IGP/H55 combo must be working.

Pros: After installing DD-WRT V24RC5 the router works great! I'm currently connected at 117Mbs, and the router is on a different floor of the house. The router itself is very compact. It's roughly 2/3 the size of the WRT-54g.

Cons: At first the router would constantly drop connection every few minutes. Surfing the internet was a pain. The factory installed firmware is very poorly done.

Overall Review: This router is junk from Linksys, but it works GREAT with the DD-WRT firmware installed. The firmware upgrade is simple. Don't fear it. 3 stars because it REQUIRES new firmware.
