G.SKILL NS 2GB DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9S-2GBNS
G.SKILL NS 2GB DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9S-2GBNS

Pros: its cheap an effective system ram for now. 1333mhz 2GB enough to run windows 7 pro 64bit an multitask lightly.

Cons: n/a

Overall Review: good cheap an useful ram stick for a budget build until im able to upgrade the ram sticks to something better. great buy for the price. most stores locally are selling 2gb sticks for 30$ an not any better than this one.

good BUT...

VIZIO E241-B1 24" Class 1080p 60Hz LED HDTV
VIZIO E241-B1 24" Class 1080p 60Hz LED HDTV

Pros: its 1080P Razor LED screen

Cons: its NOT the smart TV version which has smart TV features built in for the SAME PRICE. BE SURE TO CHECK FULL MODEL # before buying!! i made that mistake an got the older non-smart version! my own fault...

Overall Review: its an excellent screen for my pc monitor over HDMI as well as TV tuner for cable watching. VERY lightweight crisp an clear display, full 1080P at 60Hz

Very Impressed

Intel Core i5-3570K - Core i5 3rd Gen Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Intel HD Graphics 4000 Desktop Processor - BX80637I53570K
Intel Core i5-3570K - Core i5 3rd Gen Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Intel HD Graphics 4000 Desktop Processor - BX80637I53570K

Pros: only 77w newer next gen chipset Ivy bridge runs remotely cool with stock HSF included. true quad core can be overclocked. paired with 6GB ddr3 and 2GB EVGA GTX 750 Ti (SC) edition,runs pretty much every an any game in my library maxed out or very close at very decent frame rates.

Cons: none

cooler master PSU

COOLER MASTER Elite RS350-PSARI3-US 350W Power Supply New 4th Gen CPU Certified Haswell Ready
COOLER MASTER Elite RS350-PSARI3-US 350W Power Supply New 4th Gen CPU Certified Haswell Ready

Pros: its a cheap power supply an built decently well so it should be quite reliable as cooler master is known for some great products an reliability has most of all the plugs an connectors i need without tons of extras i have to hide somewhere in the case.

Cons: its only 350 watts.

Overall Review: paired together with a lower end system microatx mobo intel celeron dual core (55 watt 1155 socket) a dvd burner 2 mechanical HDD's and GTX 550ti seems to fair nicely. (upgrade is coming soon)

skeptical but worth it

ECS H61H2-M13 (V2.0) LGA 1155 Intel H61 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
ECS H61H2-M13 (V2.0) LGA 1155 Intel H61 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: very nice UFEI bios with keyboard/mouse support core unlocking, voltage control for overclocking. supports up to 95w i7 intel an everything below it thats 1155 socket. supports up to 16GB ddr3 ram i believe 1600mhz. supports pci an pci-E x16 (only one pciE-x16) pretty much has everything everyday computers will need an utilize in a system.

Cons: for whatever reason bios UI seems laggy when moving the mouse,only supports video with supported intel chipsets that have a gpu built into the CPU. not a bad thing but also not great.

Overall Review: overall for the price it seems very much worth it. i have never tried the ECS brand stuff yet but im pretty satisfied on its performance an reliability thus-far.

works great
