Most Favorable Review

More memory please.

G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL

Pros: Nice price for 2x4gb of memory. MB (Biostar TA890GXB HD) recognized it right away. Can't wait for the price to come down even more so I can go ahead and max out to 16GB. Cool looking heatsinks that I'll hardly ever see since it's in a big beige box.

Cons: Will hardly ever get to see the nice looking heatsinks.

Overall Review: You know you want to buy some. Go ahead pull the trigger. Tell your wife it'll make Farmville faster.

Nice!

SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 ST1000DM005/HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: Dirt cheap. Quiet. Fast.

Cons: Had to wait 3 days for it to get here. I wanted it now! whah!

Overall Review: Will tide me over just fine until SSD get cheaper. Has anyone else noticed Samsung taking over their houses? TVs, microwaves, phones and now PC parts. I bet I'll have a Samsung car one day and stop for a burger at Samsung's.

Good deal

Antec NeoECO C NeoECO 520C 520W ATX12V 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: Quiet. Lots of plugs. Nice gray and black color scheme even though I'll rarely see it. Quiet. Nice looming on the wires and very good length, enough for a full ATX tower. Quiet. Uses less power than the Ultra 500w I replaced with it (runs about 50w less with the same load). Very quiet.

Cons: Not modular, but knew that and was willing to sacrifice for the price. Had to wait 3 days for it to get here (j/k Newegg).
