Had it for 2 months, and Lovin it!!!

SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4890 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100269SR
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4890 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100269SR

Pros: Runs all games I throw at it, not a crysis killer, but getting some decent frame rates. Crysis on very high(no AA) 30-50 fps. It included the dvi to hdmi adapter, wish it was native but at least they included the adapter. Great card, this was my first build and a powerful beast for a decent price.

Cons: LOUD FAN(anything over 40% and this baby will be heard. It is settled in an antec 900 case and it mutes all my 5 fans on high. This really doesn't matter to me since it is keeping the card cool, and stable.

Overall Review: I would recommend buying this card, dont let the sound of the card be a deciciding factor. This card runs at 42C Idle so heat is not an issue.

OK Deal

Digital Lifestyles 42" 720p LCD HDTV - FA2B42323
Digital Lifestyles 42" 720p LCD HDTV - FA2B42323

Pros: This tv has great picture quality,plenty of inputs for me. The sound is not so bad. The price for 499.00 was a deal breaker, well I thought.

Cons: The television I received worked for about 20 days then the picture just died on half of the lcd. This tv really heats up a room. The remote was very complicated to use, but set it up with my universal remote and all is ok.

Overall Review: I would think twice about this tv, if you can't really afford a better tv then this is definitely a steal, but I wish I shelled out a couple hundred dollars more for a name brand tv. Processes my RMA for the tv with newegg was a good experience, they definitely have an A in customer service in my book. Take my word for it, don't cheap out, buy the extended warranty for this baby.

Pros: Keyboard(great layout), display and sound are decent. It plays netflix, hulu, youtube videos with no problems. Looks great and the battery life is the best out their for netbooks. The glossy finish looks great, and the webcam and mics are decent for skype.

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: I love this netbook, can't wait to bring it to college, b/c it is so light weight, and it doesn't look half bad like my old inspiron laptop. Wireless works great, no problems discovering my network. I researched netbooks for a while and if you want good performance, great battery life than this is the netbook for you.

Nice CPU, Quicker than a blink of the eye!

Overall Review: great and reliable cpu that will stick around for time to come.
