Most Favorable Review

Great HS/FAN setup!

Scythe MUGEN-2 SCMG-2000 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler
Scythe MUGEN-2 SCMG-2000 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler

Pros: CHEAP! Works very well...

Cons: Instructions, junk thermal compound.

Overall Review: The Vigor Monsoon III was sold out when I purchased this item, I'm glad I bought it. I used Zalman STG1 instead of the junk that came with this product and it keeps my i7 920 at 30 degrees celcius while idle. The instructions were a little funky, but the diagrams were dead on, this helped tremendously. Has great clearance on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P, all memory slots are still useable. Buy this product and you won't regret it.

Pros: Cheap, FAST, worked great out of the box.

Cons: None!

Overall Review: In throughput tests I'm able to get ~15 MB/sec (yes, megabytes not megabits) from a computer with this device to a hard-wired pc with a gigabit ethernet connection. The wireless pc is about 15 feet away and the long way through a fireplace. No dropped connections, no installation issues with Windows 7 x64 (download driver from Rosewill's website and use the Windows wireless config tool.

ZALMAN ZM - STG1 Thermal Compound

Pros: EXTREMELY easy to apply, works great!!!!!

Cons: None at all.

Overall Review: This stuff is keeping my new i7 920 at 30 degrees celcius during idle, when paired with a Scythe Mugen 2 (SCMG-2000). Will continue to buy this product instead of the competition.

Pros: Excellent value for the price, VERY quiet and fast.

Cons: Wish I could afford 1.5TB drives in raid 0?

Overall Review: Set these drives up as a raid 0 array (~600GB available), they are VERY fast... glad I didn't waste my money on a Velociraptor.
