Most Favorable Review

Good

AMD FX-8320 - FX-8000 Series Vishera 8-Core 3.5 GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W Desktop Processor - FD8320FRHKBOX
AMD FX-8320 - FX-8000 Series Vishera 8-Core 3.5 GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W Desktop Processor - FD8320FRHKBOX

Pros: The processor is very good. I was able to overclock it up to 4.4 GHz and still have it pretty stable.

Cons: The stock CPU cooler that comes with it is terrible. In the summer, when playing games, my cpu would go up to 60 C. I had to buy an after-market cooler and that seemed to solve the problem.

Overall Review: A pretty good CPU overall. In it's one year of intensive usage, it has not failed me.

Most Critical Review

Decent headphones

Logitech Recertified 981-000536 G430 Circumaural Surround Sound Gaming Headset
Logitech Recertified 981-000536 G430 Circumaural Surround Sound Gaming Headset

Pros: The headset did it's job for the year that I've had it. The logitech drivers are pretty good at imitating 7.1 surround sound.

Cons: After a year, I've noticed there was a static in the headphones. The mic does not work anymore either. It's an ok headset for the price, but don't expect anything more from it.

Awesome Cooler

Pros: Very good after-market cooler. It keeps my FX8320 at around 40 C while playing games.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I'm very satisfied with this cooler.

Worked at first

Rosewill N300 Wireless PCI Express Adapter, 300 Mbps (2.4 GHz) PCIe Wi-Fi Network Card for PC
Rosewill N300 Wireless PCI Express Adapter, 300 Mbps (2.4 GHz) PCIe Wi-Fi Network Card for PC

Pros: The card is fast, easy to install.

Cons: I'm using windows 8.1 and from the other review I've seen, it doesn't work well with it. I've had this on my computer for a week now. The first few days it worked very well (slows down when downloading a lot), but afterwards everything started crashing. Every hour or so the internet cuts off, I have to restart my computer, or even reinstall drivers. I will get a USB wireless adapter instead.

Overall Review: Don't buy
