ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT!

Hanns-G 27" LCD Monitor 2 ms D-Sub, DVI, HDMI HL272HPB
Hanns-G 27" LCD Monitor 2 ms D-Sub, DVI, HDMI HL272HPB

Pros: HUGE Screen I was absolutely stunned when I saw this thing, it is beautiful. Much bigger than my old 22" ACER. I thought it would only be just a bit bigger, but NO! Sharp - the size did not sacrifice the sharpness. Letters are prestine NO Reflection on screen - Awesome if you don't live in a cave! Makes gaming in daylight/lights in the background much better. I see zero reflection of the lightbulb of my fan! GREAT deal - I was luckier to snag up this for $200. The lucky ones know that this thing exists and own one, no matter what price. Low MS response time - great for gaming and gives you the few MS edge that you need to beat your opponent. Buttons are easy to feel/press and the LED light indicated it is on is small and isn't a distraction.

Cons: Stand came with something broken off. I was scared that I wouldn't be able to use the stand because of this reason. Not enough to knock off an egg because the stand still works, I'm kind of puzzled as to what broke off exactly. NO ill effects. The brightness settings comes all the way up. Make sure to turn that down, otherwise your bulb life will be greatly affected. Button labels are really hard to see

Overall Review: Absolutely magnificent. I am not disappointed in even the slightest manner. I thought I would have gotten a glossy screen that reflects everything - the exact opposite is true! I will definately buy Hanns G monitors again in the future. Thank you once again, Newegg, for the deal!

Most Critical Review

Cheap but bad for windows 8

Rosewill RNX-G300LX - Wireless WRT54 Wi-Fi Adapter - IEEE 802.11b/g, Up to 54 Mbps Data Rate, PCI Interface with 2 dBi Antenna
Rosewill RNX-G300LX - Wireless WRT54 Wi-Fi Adapter - IEEE 802.11b/g, Up to 54 Mbps Data Rate, PCI Interface with 2 dBi Antenna

Pros: Cheap Works OK

Cons: Doesn't work with windows 8.1 !

Overall Review: I tried to install the drivers, but told me I didn't have the correct operating system. Apparently you need windows 7 or worse to use it. I wish that there were windows 8.1 drivers and this would be good! C'mon rosewill, you're a good company and make quality products without ripping customers off! Windows 8 takes 10% of the market of computers, please release drivers! Thank you!

Upgraded from 770, OK card

GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 WINDFORCE 8G Graphics Card, 3 x WINDFORCE Fans, 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6, GV-N2070WF3-8GC Video Card
GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 WINDFORCE 8G Graphics Card, 3 x WINDFORCE Fans, 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6, GV-N2070WF3-8GC Video Card

Pros: Didn't have to upgrade PSU Runs games on ultra @ 1080p

Cons: Features don't work. Can't disable/enable RTX in BF5 even though I'm doing everything right. Option isn't there. Expensive, NVIDIA is gouging consumers with this generation

Overall Review: It's ok to upgrade to it, happy being able to play on high graphics but it stinks since RTX doesn't work even though it's advertised as a RTX card. Yes, I'm running BF5 in DX12. Yes, I have the proper, latest drivers. Yes, I have the latest updates for windows.

An Absolute Masterpiece

NVIDIA Gift - Battlefield V
NVIDIA Gift - Battlefield V

Pros: -Beautiful game -REAL GUNS -Can unlock attachments and skins to make guns look completely different, ie you can use a metal OR a wood stock on the M1 Carbine -Can customize your character and their clothes -Great online play with rework of class functions -No spotting by everybody (Suppressing fire and scouts spot! How cool is that!) -Can build defenses! -Squad play is highly encouraged as you can revive your squadmates as a non-medic and get xp bonuses fighting with them

Cons: -Pretty buggy, but it is expected to be fixed so no hit on score but can be frustrating when you can only use your pistol, driving a vehicle causes it to be launched in the air occasionally, etc.

Overall Review: I highly recommend this game to anyone who adored BF1; so cool how nvidia partnered with DICE to give this game out; saved me $60!

Great headphones, but beware of interference!

Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound, Wireless Headphones with Microphone
Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound, Wireless Headphones with Microphone

Pros: - Good price -Wireless -Mic works great -Comfortable, I wear them for hours a day and no problem. I can wear them for 12+ hours straight and have no issues with getting a headache or hurt ears like other headsets -Good sound, but the software is messed up for the surround sound. I like to play minecraft and listen to news via youtube and it spazzes out. Luckily there is a switch to stereo -Good battery life

Cons: -Disconnects all the time and abrubtly -Signal can't go through things like a cup -It is difficult to turn on. I followed the directions and tried other things, but it takes a good 45 seconds of messing around to get a signal and sound.

Overall Review: I wish they had some driver updates and made the signal more strong. Some other people have reported problems with the USB port breaking and not being able to recharge, so be extremely careful. Overall though, these are great headphones and I definately wouldn't pass them up.

Very good router for cheap

TP-Link N300 Wireless Extender, Wi-Fi Router (TL-WR841N) - 2 x 5dBi High Power Antennas, Supports Access Point, WISP, Up to 300Mbps
TP-Link N300 Wireless Extender, Wi-Fi Router (TL-WR841N) - 2 x 5dBi High Power Antennas, Supports Access Point, WISP, Up to 300Mbps

Pros: -Only $20 -Decent range -Works fantastically -Best bang for the dollar -Great software, can do anything any high-dollar router can -Great design

Cons: -2.4 ghz interferes with my wireless headset if placed in the wrong position, but really no bigE because it 2.4 ghz is on every router pratically. -Need a good wifi receiver, weak ones won't cut it. I bought a cheapy pci-e wireless card for another compouter in my house and it can't get a good signal(it is in the corner, probably 30 feet away and has to go through 3 walls though)

Overall Review: Buy this router. It is great, haven't had any other problems that any other router would have. It comes in a good case, it's a great product. I also love the fact that the range is just enough to cover your house so your neighbors can't hack into your internet.
