Works Great!
Pros: Great cooling, quiet fan
Cons: Installation was pretty horrible, and almost broke my motherboard because the screws weren't long enough. Had to go out and buy different screws to make the threads reach for a FM2 board. Secondly, I studied the material very closely to make sure I install it the right direction for the air flow, and the fan ends up spinning the opposite direction, had to unmount the fan and turn it around, then pray I don't break my motherboard.
FANTASTIC!, until the power port broke.
Pros: Cheap! This little thing is amazing. It plays all of my original NES games as well as a 100+ in 1 game cart. The setup and colors are great, HDMI and Composite can run at the same time.
Cons: The power port is extremely fragile. I've used the system twice until the USB Micro port broke off while unplugging it. I want to be very clear that I did not force the plug in or out, it just sorta popped off.
Overall Review: It seem that very little solder was used to seat the port, which makes me very sad to see such a great product so poorly made. I bought a bunch of accessories and add-ons for this thing, and now I don't know what to do with it. I haven't been able to get a hold of the manufacturer either to use the 1 year warranty. +5 Eggs for the device itself. -3 Eggs for breaking so easily and not being able to contact support.
wrong item in picture
Pros: has some tools
Cons: NOT the tool I wanted
Half good
Pros: Free games
Cons: only assassins creed's promo code worked, splinter cells code didn't work and ubisoft is not replyingto my ticket.
Great!
Pros: Three intake holes for better air flow, bottom wick for cooler vaping
Cons: none
Overall Review: I knew exactly what I was buying and received just that. I have several of these but wanted to get new ones with colors. I did however take this into a vape store to have one of the intake holes dilled out bigger. That way it hits more like a hookah.
Its alright I guess
Pros: Its a nice motherboard with some really interesting features that let you do a lot of testing and tweaking without even having a case. The people who designed this board did a great job.
Cons: its hard to tell what RAM is compatible with the board, it says it can do DDR3-1600, but it doesn't say what voltage. (1.35v didn't work for me even after updating bios) No on board speaker makes it hard to tell what the issue is since there is no beep sequence to follow up on. And the USB3.0 plug for the front of the case would make my computer turn off every time I tried to use it. (checked for shorts in the back and had none.) Then when I removed the USB3.0 plug from the board, and the mount came off with it. So although the design is great, the execution was poor, cheaply made and sloppy. with such a poorly made board, the price should be much cheaper. Really not worth the time to completely take everything apart and RMA it...
Overall Review: If you are having trouble getting the free RAM that came with the board from newegg to work, stop trying and buy different RAM. I couldn't get it to work and I doubt all four sticks of ram were bad on crucials end.
Fast and easy
Bought some bar stool's, Nothing out of the ordinary and everything went as expected. Shipping was fast, and product was as described for the most part aside from having to bend a piece back into place which may have been the shippers fault and not the seller. Overall satisfied.
