Pros: Extremely stable voltages. Fans are whisper quiet.

Cons: Heat disipation could be a bit better, but still outstanding for the price.

Overall Review: Hiper has maintained their reputation of quality products with the 4M480. You can't go wrong with a Hiper!

Comments: Thermaltake decided to take the tried and true modular design and bring it up a notch with the powerstation idea. The powerstation (a modded fanbus) is a unique idea but lacks feasability as it is quite long and the wires come out of the back of it. The remote powerstation is an interesting concept allowing further hiding of wiring that I think should be implemented in all PSUs. The downside is the variant voltages. My 12v lines were ranging from 8.2v to 15.7v. While the design is cutting edge, the technology needs more refinement and better stability.

Pros: I noticed a difference almost immediately. I work with computers for 12hrs per day. The eye strain relief is absolutely amazing. There is such a huge reduction in glare and eye strain that I have recommended them to many of my friends and family already. The glasses are also extremely light, that I can barely feel them on me. They're an outstanding piece of technology and a must have for anyone that spends large amounts of time (3+ hrs) on a computer.

Cons: The only downside I have found with these glasses is the hinges seem to be a bit flimsy, but could be attributed to the fact that they're so light. It could also be attributed to the fact that they're not the typical spring/screw hinge on most glasses.

Overall Review: While the price on these may be a drawback to many people, they are well worth it to me. I have found these to provide immediate relief to my eyes. I enjoy these so much, I might possibly look into the Outdoor series from Gunnar.

Pros: The monitor has an amazing picture quality with very smooth movement and little to no ghosting.

Cons: The sound quality from the speakers is junk at best. Also, after 18 months, the monitor has started blacking out randomly. It does not lose power, it simply blacksout. You must power cycle the monitor several times to get it working again. Repair is done via RMA with ViewSonic and takes approximately 1 month. You will be required to pay for shipment to the repair center.

Overall Review: Had I known the level of "customer service" ViewSonic had before I bought this, I would have moved to a different brand. Buyer beware.

Pros: The overall design of this card is top notch. With nearly unparralled video output, ATI has gone above and beyond with the HD3870X2. The replacement versions (different Brand) that I received from my RMA are flawless. Many others have complained about the noise factor, I found mine to be extremely quiet (and yes, the fans are running).

Cons: HIS, which is normally the creme de la creme of video card makers seems to have had a bad batch. Both of the two that I ordered from Newegg were DoA. I have since replaced them with an alternate brand of the same model with no problems.

Pros: With multiple races and classes to choose from with more on the way, WoW has gained the appeal of having a diverse universe. The addition of professions allows for those with a basic understanding of supply and demand to use their knowledge. Others have mentioned that this game will cause you to lose your social life, it will not. While it is a facinating game to play, you may find that you've passed a few hours, but not days. Beginning a character is simple and straight forward and does not require a lot of experience. This game is for the young and the young at heart. While many enjoy the PvP aspect of it, there is also a bit to be said about the RP aspect of the game. You can immerse yourself into your character and ineract as with others who are not into the hack & slash that has become most MMOs.

Cons: While this *IS* a game, there is an extreme number of kids in the game. I'm not refering to people of a young age, but rather of a poor maturity level. There are some good people. However, a majority are rude, vulgar, and abusive. The sever stability, as others have mentioned, can be horrendous at times but is decent for the most part considering the number of people per server. The story line could be a bit more consistant and detailed rather than "Kill the Horde!" or "Destroy the Alliance!". The lacking story line available in the quests is extremely choppy and inconsistant. Many people have found that they can buy their way into a better character which defeats the purpose of growing with your character and learning how to play it. If you buy a character and pay someone to get it to level 60, you won't automatically know how to play it as every other 60 would.

Overall Review: The game is constantly expanding and being tweaked by the constant patches and upcoming expansion. If you want something to allow you to escape from reality from time to time, then this is the game for you. If you're wanting complete stability and immersive story line, stay away as it will only frustrate you. This game, like all others, is not without its cons, but certainly not lacking on it's pros either. I give it a 4 / 5. With increased support and more stable servers, this game could be outstanding. Let loose the dogs of war on the immature ones and the game will be superb. Ultimately the decision is yours. When in doubt, find someone who has the game and ask them if they will let you try it using a 10-day pass. Afterall, you know what you like better than any review could possibly know.
