Most Critical Review

Not worth the hassle

Logitech G35 USB Connector Circumaural Surround Sound Headset
Logitech G35 USB Connector Circumaural Surround Sound Headset

Pros: 7.1 Surround Sound. Very comfortable Great length cable (braided is awesome too) Lots of options/controls in software On headset mute button. Auto-mute when mic boom is moved up out of the way (software option).

Cons: They just suck at staying together. Plain and simple. I've owned nearly a dozen varying logitech products, mice, keyboards, gaming controllers, steering wheel/pedal combos and I've loved every single one. The G35 is pure garbage build quality in comparison. The earcups swivel on the headband, as one would expect, however where the "mount" is for this pivot is covered by very flimsy, cheap plastic that is attched to the headband with screws. I returned this headset to Logitech for warranty replacements for this mount breaking 3 times. Each headset lasted less than 2 weeks and I'm very cautious with my gear and very gentle with it. Newegg has gone above and beyond and refunded this purchase so I can buy another headset that will last more than 2 weeks. I'm highly disappointed in Logitech and this headset, but Newegg pulls through.

Overall Review: Look elsewhere for a logitech headset. The G35 seems to be plagued with this problem where the lower-end headsets aren't, nor is the G930.

Awesome!

Vacmaster VJ507 5 Gallon 3 Peak Horsepower Wet & Dry Vac
Vacmaster VJ507 5 Gallon 3 Peak Horsepower Wet & Dry Vac

Pros: Works VERY well. Easy to assemble, plenty of attachments.

Cons: Hose is slightly stiffer than I'd have hoped for.

Overall Review: I saw other reviews about the hose on this vacuum, and how hard it is. It really isn't that bad, it doesn't hinder the use of the unit, though it can twist the unit a bit if you're not careful.

Great drive!!

CORSAIR Flash Voyager GT 4GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) CMFUSB2.0-4GBGT
CORSAIR Flash Voyager GT 4GB Flash Drive (USB2.0 Portable) CMFUSB2.0-4GBGT

Pros: I was slightly weary about spending so much on a flash drive, but I use portableapps so I needed something much faster than the Transcend drives that I have. Let me tell you, this drive, is FAST! I can consistently see ~30MB/s read speeds and between 20-25MB/s write speeds so this drive works WONDERFULLY!! I would HIGHLY recommend anyone who wants a FAST drive consider this!

Cons: I am still giving this 5 eggs, but my drive just recently died. I am unable to access anything on it unless I'm plugged into a Linux distro and then it's read-only. I'm not sure if this is something caused by a computer issue or a drive failure, hence why I'm not knocking down the rating.

Overall Review: I talked to Corsair, where they have GREAT service by the way, and they have already approved and RMA to get this replaced free of charge. Let me just say, I can't WAIT to have it back! Don't think twice, Just GET IT!

Not Perfect

ASUS Radeon X1300LE 256MB On-board (512MB HyperMemory) GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card EAX1300HM512/TD/256M
ASUS Radeon X1300LE 256MB On-board (512MB HyperMemory) GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card EAX1300HM512/TD/256M

Pros: This card has a great resolution and isn't too large.

Cons: As mentioned before the fan runs at 100% ALL the time. Not even ATItool can lower it.

Overall Review: Not too bad for a budget card, haven't put it through any gaming yet, but it's a solid card so far.

It works
