Not bad
Pros: It works, I can't hear it (my other fans probably overpower it :P) It seems to move as much air as my Antec 120mm fans
Cons: Absolutely none.
Overall Review: Shipping was 3 Days Guaranteed but it came in 2 days, which is even better. Used a coupon to get this for $4, anything to save a buck or tow :P
They're filters.
Pros: They're filters. They filter out dust. Not an electronic, don't have to worry about DOA.
Cons: The shroud the holds the filter is HUGE. On my NZXT Zero, I can barely get the side of the case on due to the covers on the back. Or, I should say cover, rather. They're so big that I could only fit one on, there wasn't enough of a gap between the fans to get the 2nd one on.
Overall Review: If your fans are spaced out and you have plenty of exterior room, get these. Otherwise, look for a smaller option.
Beautiful case
Pros: For the $50 that it was, this case is nuts. It's beautiful. The side vents on the front panel make for an amazing glow when a LED fan is added (preferably white). Cable management is nice, and there are definitely enough locations for fans. Evo 212 fits without a problem. As does my GTX 780.
Cons: The preinstalled standoff was very frustrating. Initially, I didn't even know what it was. After about 20 minutes of trying to rip it out, I gave up and just sat the motherboard in. Lo and behold, it fit just as it should've. Probably wouldn't have hurt me to look in the first place. Not enough clearance for a rad on top with push/pull fans included. The 140mm fan mount nearest the front of the case is likely too close to the front to be utilized, as my ODD reaches right to where the holes line up for it. Plastic hard drive cage, but I haven't heard and rattling. Fans it comes with are mediocre at best.
Overall Review: It's a wonderful case for the price, but I had a less than stellar time trying to get it. Black Friday: sold out within hours. Christmas: sold out within hours. I eventually gave up and bought the case elsewhere, but oh well. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone on a budget, or just looking for a sleek case.
Marvellous
Pros: Easily the best keyboard I've ever owned, even being wired. Usually I stick to wireless keyboards, but I took a chance on this one and it paid off. Most people in my area are computer illiterate, and wouldn't be able to use my keyboard, making the keyboard useless to them. I love it.
Cons: This keyboard makes me depressed whenever I don't have it and I have to use a junk keyboard.
Overall Review: To anyone who complains about the keyboard not having lettering, it says in the details "No key cap inscriptions" Meaning, no lettering.
Great CPU for the price.
Pros: Was on sale for $70 for awhile. Very cheap. Managed to hit 4.4GHz (unstable, obviously). Running 3.9GHz stable on air. Quad core.
Cons: None, except maybe that it's not unlocked.
Overall Review: Right now I hold the top score on PassMark for it, at 5,391 points. Test was ran at 4.1GHz. I've had it at 4.4, but the overall gain for the computer was less than 5%, so I couldn't upload it. Bragging rights are awesome, though.
Re: Slightly disappointed.
Pros: None.
Cons: Surprise! The card that I bought which should have been new in the first place, was used. Used cards will have used problems. First week of ownership: Card is fine. Plays games perfectly. Week two: right fan rattles. Week three: BSODs, overheating, etc.
Overall Review: I have an $800-ish computer sitting in my room, unusable. Sent in the card for RMA, now to wait for a few weeks to get the card back, and likely have Artifacting problems due to lack of a RAM heatsink. Never buying MSI products again.
