Pros: It works Silverstone quality PWM control of 2 fans

Cons: None

Overall Review: This is a really nice sleeved fan splitter. It properly splits the PWM function so the motherboard can control and power 2 4-pin PWM (together, not independently). It says in the description that it's 3.94" long but that's the measurement of the cable itself. The total length from the end of the connectors is 5.25". Worked out perfect for me. I appreciate quality, precision and attention to detail which are qualities that all of the SIlverstone products I've used have. From something as simple as this fan splitter to a USB 2.0 to USB 3.0 internal header adapter to their 3.5" to 2.5" HDD bay adapter, they're all just really well made products. I'm still loving my 6 yr old Temjin TJ09 case too. Their customer support is excellent as well, though I wouldn't expect you'd ever need to call them with questions or service for a fan splitter.

Pros: Extremely thin and short wires perfect for Mini-ITX and HTPC cases. Low profile connectors.

Cons: They didn't work. Latchless connector fits too tightly.

Overall Review: I bought 2 of these cables for my MiniITX systems. I first installed one on a new build connecting a Samsung 830 SSD to the Intel SATA 6G port on a ASUS Maximus VI Impact. It took several boots to get the MB to recognize the drive. The system then froze up several times while trying to secure wipe the SSD using Parted Magic. Then I tried to install Windows 7 x64, got to the install screen and Windows complained that it could not install on the system drive because it wasn't bootable. Since this was a new system (SSD was used and known to be good) I thought it might be a problem with the new hardware. I spent over an hour troubleshooting everything. Then it hit me, I remembered reading the Newegg reviews of this product before purchase and how several people had problems with these cables. I then swapped it out with the ASUS bundled SATA cable and was able to boot up and install Windows without error. I then tried to use this cable on my other system to connect a Samsung 840 Pro to the Intel SATA 6G port on a ASUS P8Z77-I. Same problem, I could see the drive from the UEFI but Windows could not boot. So then I tried using the second CP11 cable I received, this time I was able to boot to Windows. I ran the Samsung Magician benchmark utility and got the expected performance numbers, ~530MB/s Read and ~340MB/s Write. Still not confident at this point, I ran the test again and saw the numbers drop to 287MB/s Read and 267 Write, roughly SATA 3G speeds. Samsung Magician was still reporting the drive connected at SATA 6G. I ran the test a third time and still saw the low numbers. I rebooted and ran the test again and even ran two other benchmark utilities, all three showed the same ~280 Reads and ~260 Writes. I shut the system down, put the ASUS cable back in and the drive was then back to working at full speed. All in all these cable were an epic failure that cost me several hours of my time. I contacted Newegg for an RMA and shipped these back for a refund. In my experience all of the Silverstone products I've used have been outstanding. Silverstone is a great company with high quality, innovative products and great customer service. Hopefully this is just a defective batch that Newegg has in stock. Perhaps a Silverstone representative can look into this issue.

Pros: Solid build quality Great read performance Inexpensive Capless design with activity LED Stylish

Cons: Poor write performance for a USB 3.0 drive, barely on par with a decent USB 2.0 drive.

Overall Review: I wasn't familiar with this brand but I decided to take a chance based on some decent (though inconsistent) reviews from around the web. The performance results that I did find from various review sites varied so I wasn't sure if I'd be able to use this as a drive for transferring files or as a (mostly) read-only drive for loading OS and various utilities. My results - System: ASUS P8Z77-V Pro/3770k Intel USB3.0 ports Samsung 840 Pro 128GB Windows 7 SP1 x64 CrystalDiskMark 3.0.3 x64 (Formatted FAT32, 1000 MB file size) Read Write Seq (MB/s) 117.0 20.37 512K (MB/s) 103.2 0.655 4K (MB/s) 9.314 0.172 4K QD32 (MB/s) 8.632 0.108 I ran tests using Windows Explorer to read and copy files ranging from 200MB to 2.5GB and had similar results: Small files Reads 116-120 MB/s Writes 19-20 MB/s Large files (1GB +) Reads 110-114 MB/s Writes 16-18 MB/s The form factor is nice, much smaller and leaner than the Jumbo type drives like the Sandisk Extreme. I had no problems accessing adjacent usb ports on my various desktops and laptops with this drive inserted. The swivel cover has 4 distinct "locked" positions. When rotated to the rear it stays snug enough so that it doesn't flop around when trying to insert the drive into a port. WIth the somewhat disappointing write performance of this drive I'll only be using it in the read-only capacity. For transferring data I'll stick to my other USB 3.0 drives like the Sandisk Extreme 32GB which has 2x the read performance and 5x the write performance. Durability and longevity are unknowns for now, if I have any problems I post a follow up review. Overall I give this USB drive a solid 4 eggs for it's form factor/design, build quality, solid read performance and price paid.

Pros: Fast read speed Small and thin form factor No cap to lose

Cons: Abysmal write performance - see other thoughts

Overall Review: I purchased this 8GB model in Red back in January and I gave it a solid 4 egg rating for it's overall performance and value. When this Black version went on sale for only $5 I felt confident that it would be a good purchase. Upon opening the package for this 8GB Black model I noticed it was rattling. The black plastic spacer in the USB port was loose. No big deal as it's only a spacer and can be easily remedied. I ran some benchmarks on my desktop, the same system and configuration that I benchmarked the previous 8GB Red unit on. The great read performance was the same but to my surprise the write performance was less than half of the previous 8GB Red unit. System: ASUS P8Z77-V Pro/3770k Intel USB3.0 ports Windows 7 SP1 x64 CrystalDiskMark 3.0.3 x64 (Formatted FAT32, 1000 MB file size) ADATA UV100 8GB Black Read Write Seq (MB/s) 26.07 4.866 512K (MB/s) 25.59 0.467 4K (MB/s) 7.386 0.004 4K QD32 (MB/s) 8.093 0.004 ADATA UV100 8GB Red Read Write Seq (MB/s) 27.32 11.410 512K (MB/s) 26.98 0.791 4K (MB/s) 7.492 0.007 4K QD32 (MB/s) 7.687 0.008 Either ADATA has changed the memory components or I got a partially defective unit. Either way it's not worth my time, trouble or gas money to return this.

Pros: Same as listed in previous review

Cons: Newegg not allowing edits to previously posted reviews. I mean really, every other review site in existence allows you to edit or at least append your reviews.

Overall Review: Regarding my results from overclock on air - the Boost speed was 1210 MHz and not 1111 MHz: This card overclocked pretty well, I managed a rock solid +100 on the GPU and +150 on the Memory using EVGA Precision X software (106 power, 90 temp). This resulted in a Boost speed of 1210 MHz while cool and ~1050 MHz while gaming (stock fan profile).

Pros: Thin, soft and flexible Perfect sized connectors for snug fit Gold plated connectors Price/value

Cons: None, other than I don't care for the Rosewill logo :-)

Overall Review: I was an early adopter of Blu-ray and most of the HDMI cables available at the time were $50+ and almost the thickness of a small garden hose and seemingly as stiff as a solid core wire. Those cables were so stiff and heavy that they threatened to damage the connectors on the TV and at the very least, pull my lighter components off the shelf. These Redmere (and their competitors) thin cables are brilliant. The connector fits in both the TV and Graphics card perfectly with no play but with no force either. Being soft and flexible these cables make for much easier cable managment. I'm currently in the process of replacing all my display cables with these. Just remember that Redmere cables are directional and require the longer connector to be attached to the display and the shorter connector attached to the source. 5 eggs for build quality, performance and value.

Best price I could find online and order processing + shipping was fast.
