Most Favorable Review

A new direction pays off big!

be quiet! Pure Base 500DX ATX Mid Tower PC case | ARGB | 3 Pre-Installed Pure Wings 2 Fans | Tempered Glass Window | Black
be quiet! Pure Base 500DX ATX Mid Tower PC case | ARGB | 3 Pre-Installed Pure Wings 2 Fans | Tempered Glass Window | Black

Pros: Easy and spacious layout. Finally NO optical drive cages or wasted place for said option. 3 fans included. Surprisingly quiet for an airflow case, lives up to the name!

Overall Review: This case is absolutely beautiful! Two things that Be Quiet! never touched: RGB and open airflow. DONE RIGHT! This case still has great silence while giving you all the airflow you need. My system is staying cool under load and looking good doing it. I would absolutely recommend this case to anyone! Well done Be Quiet!!!

Most Critical Review

Beautiful but flakey

CM Storm Devastator - LED Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo Bundle (Blue Edition)
CM Storm Devastator - LED Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo Bundle (Blue Edition)

Pros: Brilliant design, great looking back-light, nice feel to the keys.

Cons: Flakey. I had this for 2 days. . .2 DAYS and keys start to stop functioning. I lost the windows key, backspace and shift. This can't happen to a programmer. Backspace is my favorite

Overall Review: You have to turn on the illumination everytime you boot your machine. The Mouse light stays on constantly with no way to turn it off at night. Wish better functionality had been though of for controlling the illumination.

Entry level for the new gen

GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 x16 ATX Graphics Card GV-R55XTGAMING OC-8GD
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 x16 ATX Graphics Card GV-R55XTGAMING OC-8GD

Pros: Looks great, stays quiet, and the heat is manageable. Simple RGB, only the Gigabyte logo glows with a clean smooth look. Fantastic speed for a budget card!

Cons: Gets warm, not dangerously hot, but airflow in your case is a MUST!

Overall Review: Strong card for the money! I am not an FPS snob, so I don't need anything over 60 frames. This card provides some beautiful gameplay and stays pretty quiet. I haven't seen any kind of throttle so far and it has definitely improved my workflow in Blender. If you need a decent card on a budget, I would recommend this card to almost anyone.

Trusted TUF Stuff does it again

ASUS AM4 TUF GAMING X570-Plus ATX Motherboard with PCIe 4.0, Dual M.2, 12+2 with Dr. MOS Power Stage, HDMI, DP, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2 and Aura Sync RGB Lighting
ASUS AM4 TUF GAMING X570-Plus ATX Motherboard with PCIe 4.0, Dual M.2, 12+2 with Dr. MOS Power Stage, HDMI, DP, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2 and Aura Sync RGB Lighting

Pros: Very nice layout, everything is accessible, nice heatsink work. Plenty of headers for all your needs.

Cons: RGB software is complete and utter trash!!!!!! Asus has always sucked hard at the software side of things. Use literally anything else except the garbage Aura software!

Overall Review: I have been using the TUF boards since the the old bulldozer/piledriver days and have never had any kind of issue. I trust the TUF boards to stay strong and live long. Considering my other board lasted for a decade, I am looking forward to the same great stability here. So far she is very stable, through all the overclocks and tweaks, I have not seen a single problem. Here is hoping nothing goes wrong to change my opinion for another decade!

Most infuriating trash I have ever dealt with.

MSI X370 GAMING PRO CARBON AM4 AMD X370 USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
MSI X370 GAMING PRO CARBON AM4 AMD X370 USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Very pretty to look at. . .

Cons: Zero Stability Horrible BIOS Ridiculously long boot times Worst support ever seen zero eggs wasn't an option

Overall Review: I have NEVER dealt felt rage like this junk nugget has instilled in me! After spending 40 minutes tripping options just to get the dam thing to see my optical drive (because USB doesn't work with this chipset...bee ess), I took me another 2 hours to get windows installed because the trash kept locking up. Finally got the OS on there and I can't do anything for more than a few minutes before it goes paperweight mode all over again. . ."Just update the BIOS" they said. . . IT WON'T RECOGNIZE THE BIOS FILES FROM MSI'S OWN WEBSITE!!! This was the first and LAST time I touch an MSI mobo. Packing it up and sending it back as we speak. Wasted over 8 hours of my life trying every update and forum voodoo post to get this lump to function. Not even worried about the money, give me back my life.

Far to slow for critical deliveries!!

I would absolutely not recommend this seller if you are on any kind of timeline. Processing the payment took almost a week, shipping took another 2 days just to start. I ordered all my parts at the same time, this is the only seller that did not get my gear to me in a week. I am adding one egg for the consideration of possible CV-19 complications, note however, that it did not seem to affect any other seller.
