Pros: This card was great. It installed easily, looked amazing, and did not stop to smell the flowers in games. It ripped up my graphics like a beast taking no prisoners whatsoever. This was the first time I upgraded my graphics card in YEARS. I was limping along in today's world on a GeForce 7800 GS. YES, A 7800. Then I upgraded to this thing and it was like injecting 20 gallons of steroid substance into a top athlete. Nothing could stop this MONSTER!

Cons: I thought nothing could stop this beast but suddenly after the first week, it popped and turned off my rig. I wondered what the heck was going on, so I turned it back on. Same thing. It did this about 3 more times and then finally it went POP and SPARKS AND FLAMES FLEW OUT OF THE FAN INTAKE HOLE. Smoke started to fill the room so I YANKED IT OUT and turned off the system. This bad boy was SO BAD, that it pulled an underwear bomb incident in my case! Luckily, there was no explosion and I managed to rip it out before it did damage to other components.

Overall Review: It was good while it lasted. I had to get a new card from a different vendor. Nothing against XFX. I still support them always but this one time, their card totally fizzed out on me.

Pros: I am a professional photographer with a massive arsenal of all the top Canon DSLR bodies and lenses. However I really needed a portable casual solution for when I went out to parties or get togethers. Toting around DSLRs for a few photos with friends is obviously not the solution. However, I still wanted a camera with enough manual settings which would allow me to still be in control of what I shoot. This camera has it all for me. Long zoom, image stabilization, wide angle, and manual settings for ISO, photo temperature, Aperture, Speed, you name it. It has all the settings I need to take on any lighting situation without the professional gear. Sure its not a replacement for what I normally use, but I feel very comfortable using it and it has excellent quality. Plus, I can feel confident about taking pictures without later problems when I go out with friends or family. Also takes high def 720p videos. Also I love the widescreen glass screen! Great casual camera with lots of power

Cons: Does not take RAW photos. That is my only complaint really but I guess its not really necessary for what I use it for.

Overall Review: I notice a lot of people have given pretty bad reviews to this camera but you have to understand one thing. Most photography mistakes happen with point and shoots because of the tiny compact size. It makes it hard to hold and your hand can shake under low light easily if you are not experienced. Also, most people will use AUTO SETTINGS. The quality will be drastically affected if you allow the camera to manually set the ISO. Terrible AUTO-ISO recognition, should be DISABLED! This camera is really a gem for anyone who is experienced but needs a more compact and casual on-the-go solution. For people who are not exactly hobbyists or professionals, I would recommend you shy away from point-and-shoots and get the cameras with a grip-shaped body to avoid mistakes. Bad pictures are not always the fault of the camera, it's mostly the fault of the camera-user.

Pros: This CPU seems to eat up everything I throw at it. I have yet to see this thing run over 50% even. With this baby, you can run several SQL servers, file servers, web servers, a bunch of applications like outlook, word, powerpoint, photoshop, IM applications, etc. and STILL won't break over 10%. Heck, I even launched a game on top of that on max settings and it still didnt even break a sweat.

Cons: none

Overall Review: This processor is extremely high powered and very versatile. I do not recommend you shell out the necessary money to get it unless you really need processing speed for various tasks ranging from intense photo/movie editing and high-traffic servers. I do a lot of music composition, RAW photo editing, work related file and web servers, and the occasional game when I have time so I needed a CPU with lots of extra juice to multi-task around the clock. The i3 or i5 would probably suffice and still have enough juice left to rub its stomach and pat its head at the same time for other users.

Pros: THIS THING IS FAST. So fast, and worth the money spent! You will not be disappointed. The performance of this drive is phenomenal. 64GB is of course, on the low end of memory but I use this STRICTLY only for my OS. All other files and programs go on separate drives. If you want SPEED and you are willing to shell out a little more than normal, this is the way to go.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: This drive has made me want to invest more into SSD's. But I would definitely not recommend SSD's for people who dont require the performance or specs of an SSD Drive. Harddrives are still decent in speed and very cheap per GB. Stick with those if you are making standard PC's for normal use.

Pros: Basically, I bought these because I got tired of having screw drivers required for changing things out. It was too much of a hassle. So instead, I decided to change out all the screws in places that it was possible to thumb screws. Made life THAT much easier. My case is an ANTEC SKELETON so it actually looks really awesome too. Gives it a nice more techie touch to it.

Cons: --

Overall Review: I bought two of these. They were just that good.

Pros: This game is HIGHLY ADDICTING. I made the mistake of lending this to a friend once. He refused to return it so I had to show him how serious I was by running over his dog in forward and reverse multiple times with a garbage truck. I finally got it back and I will never let anyone borrow it ever again! These magical blocks are more addicting than that white powder stuff!

Cons: DON'T LEND IT OUT TO ANYONE.

Overall Review: I. LOVE. THIS. GAME.
