You can't go wrong with this

Pros: This processor handles everything I throw at it, and wants more. I have had 0 issues with it, and it has been completely reliable and rock stable.
Cons: It does not like overclocking. It's not really necessary to overclock this processor, but some may want to know this before they purchase.
Overall Review: Judging from reviews of the new phenom series processors, I would say this is still the best AMD processor on the market.
Stunning graphics, not solo friendly

Pros: As many have mentioned, STUNNING graphics. An absolute pleasure to look at and explore the world. Crafting system is really cool, procing uber items is an awesome concept.
Cons: Once you get above 20, you almost need to be in a group to survive. "Rifts" open in the 20 and up zones, allowing the opposing faction to "port" from their safe zone to yours. They always show up in large numbers, and generally roll you if you arent in a group yourself. Questing solo is nearly impossible to survive. Couple this with being ressurected somewhere way out of the way from where you were, it's annoying as hell. The crafting system can be easilly conquered too soon as well, which leaves someone not wishing to be ganked constantly left with little to do. This is a PVP game. Forget about the NCsoft "coined" PVPVE. You will get roflstomped by people 5 levels or (usually higher) regularly. For that reason, I don't see this game lasting long with a large player base. People that love pvp will hang for awhile, but pvp minds generally work like "ooo...shiny!" and jump to the next new game at first chance. This will leave a small base to remain playing.
Overall Review: Beautifull to look at, has a lot of potential, but I really don't think this game will last long the way it is currently set up. Maybe a year before it ends up like the vast majority of mmo's. 100k people tops playing it. Oh yeah, gold spammers and bots are insanely out of control as well.
Great Case!

Pros: Tempered smoked glass on three sides. Sturdy. Three RGB fans included. Plenty of room for whatever customization you may want to do. Plenty of options for tidy cable management. Full length removable dust filter for the bottom of the case to protect the P/S, magnetic mat filter on top of the case. This case looks amazing with a build that includes an RGB motherboard, graphics card, memory, and CPU fan.
Cons: Since the right side of the case is also tempered glass, however you route your cables is also visible, so a little extra time to pretty that up is necessary. The three RGB case fans are run through an included fan control hub. It plugs into a system fan port on the M/B, and has 3 output connections for the three pre installed case fans. A nice bracket is included to remote mount your video card vertically in the case window. Unfortunately, no cable is included to connect the video card to the board if you want to mount it this way. That cable is available separately. Most reviews I have read said that mounting a card this way and using the available cables causes performance hits or stability issues anyway.
Overall Review: It would be nice to be able to run these fans directly to the mother board for the RGB lighting. The fan controller can be used to make the case fans stay on one color static (White, Blue, Green, or Red) or it can be set to make the fans cycle through the entire color spectrum. All three fans will be the same color no matter which setting you prefer. The fan controller also controls the fans speeds. Two settings are available. Low, or High. Even set to high, the fans are barely audible. This case is as close to silent as I can imagine, and I am running with full air cooling.
Solid memory choice

Pros: The price is unbeatable on this memory. Rock solid with no issues at all.
Cons: not a one
Overall Review: I bought 4 sticks of this memory and couldn't be happier. No overclocking issues. Runs great...buy these if you want to upgrade your memory!
Great drives

Pros: Whisper quiet, reading, or writing to discs. Hasn't produced any "junk discs" yet.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Mine came with software...nice bonus.
No complaints

Pros: Runs all of my games flawlessly. Runs fairly cool in my large midtower. Doesn't flinch at all at max game settings for me
Cons: Can't think of any. Card is long, but so are all Vid cards with any power anymore. I stuck it in my small mid tower that requires a micro atx MB and it fit in there...so I would say it will probably work for most users/cases...except for some small media center cases, maybe.
Overall Review: Good card for the price...with current rebate, price is $50 less than what i payed here a little less than two months ago. Buy it!
