Most Favorable Review

buy this if you have a noisy Radeon card

ZALMAN VF900 – CU 2 Ball VGA Cooler
ZALMAN VF900 – CU 2 Ball VGA Cooler

Pros: very effective in lowering gpu and ram temperature. This unit is also very quiet and easy to install. My X850 XT platinum sounded like a hairdryer before. The card is silent now.

Cons: None

Overall Review: The fan speed controller is nice though I dont really need it, minimum setting is enough with the giant heat sink.

Most Critical Review

Bought 2 both corrupt out of the box

Western Digital Caviar SE WD1600JS 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive
Western Digital Caviar SE WD1600JS 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: None if the drive bad out of the box.

Cons: Would not even run an op system--- either of the 2 drives I bought.

Overall Review: 1st time WD has let me down.

Last 6 months and then Start Corrupting

SAMSUNG SpinPoint P Series HD160JJ 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive
SAMSUNG SpinPoint P Series HD160JJ 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: If a Drive Corrupts and Ruins data in less than a year there are no pros!

Cons: This drive lasts just long enough for you to have to go directly to Samsung for RMA. Needless to say they are difficult to deal with.

Overall Review: STICK WITH WESTERN DIGITAL OR MAXTOR!!!!! IF YOU BUY THIS DRIVE BACK UP YOUR SYSTEM ON A WEEKLY BASIS!!!!!!!!!

Already saved my computers once

CyberPower 880 8 feet 4 Transformer Spaced 4 Non-Transformer Spaced Outlets 2800 Joules Power Surge Protector
CyberPower 880 8 feet 4 Transformer Spaced 4 Non-Transformer Spaced Outlets 2800 Joules Power Surge Protector

Pros: easy to use and does its job.

Cons: none

Overall Review: If you live in an old house that is not grounded like new houses this product is a MUST. Transient voltage surges seek the path of least resistance- if you have a home built before 1950 that path is directly into your pc!

Dont buy this board

BIOSTAR TForce6100 754 NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
BIOSTAR TForce6100 754 NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Features sound nice

Cons: Board will not take a bios flash. Raid control is outside of windows only and is a very early version of raid and almost useless.

Overall Review: Terrible documentation and the support website while easy to use supplies a bios flash that will not work with the board
