Most Favorable Review

hands down best case I've ever owned

Cooler Master HAF X RC-942-KKAA00 Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case w/ Cooler Master RSA00-80GAD3-US 1000W Power Supply
Cooler Master HAF X RC-942-KKAA00 Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case w/ Cooler Master RSA00-80GAD3-US 1000W Power Supply

Pros: The design of this case is incredible. It's huge and has plenty of room. Slots to hide the wiring add a nice touch. Front USB3, USB2, eSata and firewire are great. I work on a lot of pcs and do data recovery, so the front drive trays are perfect. Some of the added features like the video card structure support or the giant silent fans just really stepped it up on this case. excellent modular power supply with enough wiring for any demand

Cons: this size might be a con for some folks. I don't particularly mind it because I sometimes have ten to twelve pcs out to work on and mine always stands out as the beast. The front usb3 ports have to be run out the back and plugged in. It's stupid, but the case has holes designed for running water cooling out the back so it's not that big of a deal. I get why they did it, I'm just not too fond of it. Not a big enough deal to deduct an egg

Overall Review: Some people have complained about not having any 3.5 bays on the front of this (read the other listing for same case w/o pwr sup). I used the SilverStone FP55B Aluminum front panel and it worked perfectly and blends well with the case. I see and build pcs all the time and this is by far the best case I've had or worked on. Crisp design, well engineered and thoughtful design make this an excellent case worth the price tag. After receiving it and getting it all set up, I really believe this is the last I'll buy for a long, long time (and I'm a compulsive egger who buys new gear any time i can afford it)

DOA! 2nd ASRock mobo DOA this week

ASRock Fatal1ty X399 Professional Gaming sTR4 AMD X399 ATX AMD Motherboard
ASRock Fatal1ty X399 Professional Gaming sTR4 AMD X399 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: NA

Cons: NA

Overall Review: I bought this mobo first and despite all efforts, (got power, but wouldn't POST at all), it's just not working. I have multiple gaming PCs and I needed to get something optimal up in a hurry so purchased another ASRock X399 Gaming 6 while I waited for this one to RMA and it also was completely DOA. I'm so disgusted and mad right now that BOTH ASRock mobos I've purchased within a week have been DOA. I build a LOT of PCs, and I have lots of spare parts laying around to test and retest, and the amount of time I've wasted on these has me so upset I can't even think straight. I would swear that I've got an ASRock in my gf's pc and it's ran solid for over a year, but after two DOAs in just a few days, I'm not sure I'll ever buy ASRock again.

Terrible process and misleading

Overall Review: As others have pointed out, this is a very misleading and terrible process. I find it extremely invasive that you have to install a hardware verification app that collects who knows what and sends to AMD. And if you're like me, who has several computers, it's pretty terrible that I can only install this app on the machine that has that particular processor installed. I'm an AMD fanboy, but this is ridiculous.

Loses connectivity

Linksys 24-Port Business Gigabit Switch (LGS124)
Linksys 24-Port Business Gigabit Switch (LGS124)

Pros: It's simple and when working does what it should.

Cons: I have to reboot this thing pretty much every day now. Despite all links showing green, I cannot access any other devices through it (I have this connected to a home lab and have a few ESX hosts and a NAS).

Overall Review: I don't know. I'm going to see if maybe there's a firmware update or something, but to be honest, this thing is more frustrating than it is useful. When it works, it works fine. But having to reset this thing every day is annoying. If it was right next to me, that'd be one thing, but in my house, I have this in a downstairs closet so it's just a PITA. If maybe there's a firmware update that makes this thing more stable, I'll come back and change my review, but as it stands now, I cannot recommend this unit.

Pretty fun game

Warhammer: Chaosbane - Xbox One
Warhammer: Chaosbane - Xbox One

Pros: This isn't exactly a super in-depth RPG by any stretch, but it is a pretty fun game. Gf and I have been playing couch co-op and for that reason alone, I give it 5 stars. It's so hard to find a game with good couch co-op and apparently this one supports up to four players.

Cons: none

Best home UPS

CyberPower PR1500LCDN Smart App Sinewave UPS Systems - 1500VA/1500W, 120 VAC, NEMA 5-15P, Mini-Tower, Sine Wave, 8 Outlets, LCD, PowerPanel® Business
CyberPower PR1500LCDN Smart App Sinewave UPS Systems - 1500VA/1500W, 120 VAC, NEMA 5-15P, Mini-Tower, Sine Wave, 8 Outlets, LCD, PowerPanel® Business

Pros: Great UPS. I have two of these that run a number of different PCs and servers. I have a generator now so they really only have to keep a load for a few minutes before it kicks on, but prior to that, it ran three servers for a solid 20+ minutes (probably would've lasted longer, but that was enough time for me to gracefully shut everything down)

Cons: none

Overall Review: I have several smaller CyberPower UPS' throughout my house, but upgraded the ones for my PCs/Servers to this model. Couldn't be happier. They've been running without issue for a few years without any sign of battery loss. I live in a rural area where the power seems to go out at least once a month, and these have been perfect.

Terrible service/delivery

Paid for overnight delivery because I needed parts right away. Four days later and I'm still waiting. I reached out to them but they never responded... I bought two purchases that same order (two different vendors) and the other part actually showed up right on time. I guess I'll have to contact NewEgg to fight for a shipping refund since these guys won't respond. I'll also be making a valiant effort to AVOID ever purchasing anything from this vendor again. Man, I miss the days when everything shipped from NewEgg...
