Pros: Great Card. Works Perfect. Plays every game i throw at it on maximum settings.

Cons: Rebate response: Invalid Purchase Location Invalid Purchase Date

Overall Review: Idles at 40-45C. Rosewill 530W PSU handles this no problem but either way i upgraded to a 650W PSU incase upgrade to a bigger card in the future =) Q9650 4GB DDR3 1333 EVGA 790i Ultra Corsair 650W PSU Antec 900

Most Critical Review

You get what you pay for (DOA)

Link Depot CCL-12UV 12" UV COLD CATHODE LIGHT KIT
Link Depot CCL-12UV 12" UV COLD CATHODE LIGHT KIT

Pros: Takes $4.99 plus shipping out of your wallet, wich makes your wallet lighter =)

Cons: DOA. They don't power on. Wiring to inverter is too short.

Overall Review: As some other costumer stated, just buy different ones. Return shipping would be the same as buying another pair and would take more time than just ordering another one.

Best Performance Price Ratio

Rosewill RSVA-11001 8 channel + 4 Sony 1/4" CCD  21 IR LED Bullet Cameras, H.264 High performance DVR, Remote Monitoring/Real time record DVR Kit (HD Sold Separately)

Pros: Over 2 Years buying G-Skill after my DOA encounter with Corsair and have never had a problem. They run smooth and overclock well :)

Cons: None.

HARD DRIVES

Western Digital WD Green WD7500AADS 750GB 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Great Preformance with Lowwww Noise and cool temps.

Cons: none

Overall Review: For those people that remove an egg just because it doesnt show up as 750GB after installation, PLEASE LET ME KNOW what hard drive out there or flash card out there, or SSD out there actually displays the Gb's advertised after system space has been taken.

GREAT!

Pros: This is a Fast Hard Drive. Has great transfer speeds.

Cons: I have always liked WD over any other brand but this drive is LOUD. More silent than some drives out there but still LOUD. Going to order another one just to make sure its normal.
