Good Card, for Price

SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6770 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100328L
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6770 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100328L

Pros: This card was for my first computer build ever of my own. I bought it, knowing that it would run all the games and future games with ease. It can run Skyrim on High settings, (Not ultra) around 35-40FPS average, sometimes falling to 29. I find that playable, but I usually turn it down to medium to get that up to 50fps. That is noticeably smoother. However, This card is still great. It has never had any problems and it works well. I suppose in around another year, I will need to replace my computer. I think this video card is a very good card, nevertheless.

Cons: None, Really.

Overall Review: One thing is that when I purchased this card, I overestimated it's ability in gaming graphics. Don't get me wrong, like I said it can Run Skyrim on High with 35-40 FPS. However, I just thought it would be better when I bought it. But, it is still a good card. The thing is, I did my research and many people said it would perform amazingly, however it only performs great. So, yes. great card.

GIGABYTE GA-Z270MX-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0) LGA 1151 Intel Z270 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 Micro ATX Motherboards - Intel

Pros: Great board to me when working

Cons: Broke after a month and a half. RMA'd. RMA DOA. Now for the next RMA Gigabyte refused to contact the PC shop that we repairing my PC even though they did the first RMA. They just hang up the phone and don't respond to e-mails. I purchased a new motherboard and my PC was fixed immediately. Never again with GIGABYTE, Hopefully I get my RMA back.

Annoying Problem

Ozone Gaming Gear RADON 3K Black 8 Buttons USB Wired Laser 3200 dpi Mouse w. Adjustable Weights
Ozone Gaming Gear RADON 3K Black 8 Buttons USB Wired Laser 3200 dpi Mouse w. Adjustable Weights

Pros: -Great Feel, fit's perfectly in my hand -Easy and quick to switch between 4 DPI modes

Cons: - Y-Axis suddenly stops working at times. (Read Other Thoughts)

Overall Review: When I first got this mouse, I loved it. It worked without Flaw for about 3 months. However, about 2 months ago, The Y-Axis (Up and Down) Stopped working randomly. even if I moved my mouse up and down rapidly it still wouldn't move. I let it sit for 10 seconds, and then it starts working again. I thought that was odd when it first happened, but did not think it was a serious problem. Later, it started occuring much more often. I decided to take it off my mousepad, which seemed to fix the problem, then it started to mess up again on my wooded desk. Either way, it sometimes does it. It does not happen often, maybe once every week. This is a very annoying problem and it is keeping the mouse from getting a 5/5.

Good product, works great!

Pros: Easy to Install No problems when and after installing it Noticeable (positive) change in performance immediately

Cons: None. I don't think there will be any either.

Overall Review: I had 2GB ram and needed more, and I bought 2 of these. with 5 minutes to install them, my computer ran I would say, 60% faster immediately after I installed them. There have been no problems with them, I have only had them 1 day however. Right after I installed them I played portal 2 for 3 hours, no problems. Everything else just seems so much smoother and faster. Worked great with my original Memory. I would recommend this.
