packaing
Pros: I bought 2 kits for an Asus P6X58D and it worked flawlessly so far.
Cons: Packing was poor at best.
Streaming from NAS
Pros: It plays almost any format that you throw at it. Everything works as expected when the video file is play locally using an attached USB drive.
Cons: If you plan to stream from your home network, it works great for low resolution videos but it stutter a lot for high resolution videos. This is connected via the ethernet wire connection.
Lenovo L540
Pros: cheap and fast
Cons: I tried this drive on multiple Lenovo L540 and W530 machines they all showed the same problem regardless of OS. I would say 1 out 5 times it will hang coming out of sleep. Once I put back the original 7200rpm drive that came with the machine, it was all fine.
fantastic cooler
Pros: Excellent air cooler. I have a stock i7 950 cooler, the CPU cores were idling at 50 c, after this cooler, it idles at around 40 c. On full load, the stock cooler was at 90 c after 10 minutes, this cooler never broke 75 c.
Cons: none
Overall Review: It is quite painful to install.
Not a true n router
Pros: N/A
Cons: Beware this router only operates at 2.4 gigahertz. I have the G version from Buffalo. I was very impressed. Since this is from Buffalo, it must be as good if not better. I am so disappointed with this device. It is a lot slower then the G version running at G speed.
Overall Review: False marketing....not a really n router. Max connection is 130mbs.
Pros: It is a great power supply. It is extremely quiet.
Cons: None
