Most Favorable Review
MSI P55-CD53 LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel Motherboard
MSI P55-CD53 LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Great onboard sound, nice and spaced out. I like the SATA ports on the "side" of the board, because it funnels all the SATA cables off to the side of the mobo, keeping things nice and tidy. 10 USB ports!!?!! A lot, which is a plus I suppose.

Cons: I can't think of any so far.

Overall Review: This motherboard was purchased for the 3rd computer that I've personally built, and its by far the nicest and fastest board that I've bought. I don't really have a use for the OC button or anything like that because I'm running an i7 which is beastly fast anyway. Still a great board, with great onboard features.

Good, easy to use product, but base slides on my desk surface

Corsair ST100 RGB Premium Headset Stand with 7.1 Surround Sound - 3.5mm and 2xUSB 3.0
Corsair ST100 RGB Premium Headset Stand with 7.1 Surround Sound - 3.5mm and 2xUSB 3.0

Pros: - RGB colors - iCue compatible - 2x USB 3.0 ports for additional devices - Weighted and sturdy design

Cons: - A little pricey, but it's not bare bones so it levels it out - The base "seems" flat and is rubber coated to prevent sliding, but in reality I guess the base is not quite flat and it slightly rocks around side-to-side. Also as it's not completely flat, there isn't as much surface area contacting my desk surface and it has a tendency to slide around a little bit when I grab or hang up my headphones. Perhaps it's only my unit that has this minor imperfection, but as such, I detract an egg from my rating. p.s. it's not my desk

Overall Review: Still one of the best RGB headset stands on the market.

Excellent Product/Excellent Service

XOTIC ASUS GL753VD - 17.3" FHD Gaming Laptop Intel Core i7-7700HQ, Nvidia GTX 1050 (4GB), 32GB 2400MHz Ram, 128GB M.2 SSD, 1TB HDD, DVD/RW Windows 10 Home, RGB Keyboard
XOTIC ASUS GL753VD - 17.3" FHD Gaming Laptop Intel Core i7-7700HQ, Nvidia GTX 1050 (4GB), 32GB 2400MHz Ram, 128GB M.2 SSD, 1TB HDD, DVD/RW Windows 10 Home, RGB Keyboard

Pros: - Boot from powered-off to operable Windows environment is >14 secs, which includes password login. Very fast. - The FHD matte screen is very clear, clean, and bright. It's a glare resistant surface and beautiful in all lighting. - USB C for charging my phone is convenient. - Power management seems adequate. Battery lasts about 3-4 hours with light-load and screen at 25% brightness. At heavier CPU load, the battery went for about 90 mins. - Chiclet keys are responsive and have good rebound. - Minimal Win10 bloatware comes installed.

Cons: - System fans got kind of loud during heavy CPU load. (if I had to guess, maybe ~40-45 dBA) - Power key located on keyboard (don't mistype on the num-pad) - Speakers are front-facing on the front lower edge of the PC. It doesn't hinder the clarity of the sound on a flat surface, but the sound level seemed substandard at 100% volume. If laptop is sitting in your lap (hence the word LAP-top), sound can easily be muffled. In my opinion, not a good design. - The outer casing is very sleek-looking, but is a fingerprint magnet. The touch-pad mouse also captures fingerprints very easily too.

Overall Review: - XOTICPC customer service is very friendly and helpful. Upon testing my laptop, I found that the right side USB hub was non-functioning, but after opening up the case I found the ribbon cable for the hub was unplugged at the motherboard. Easy mistake. I contacted XOTICPC and they provided some free game keys with the current promo. Very satisfied with their customer relations. - All-in-all, I'm very satisfied with the product. Very nice machine and much smaller and faster than my last laptop (ASUS

Pros: I ordered this, along with the biscuit and the bacon so that I could make myself a wholesome delicious bacon, 0v3r3a5y new3gg, and cheese biscuit, and BOY was it tasty!

Cons: Some assembly required.

Overall Review: I didn't really think about anything else while eating my bacon, 0v3r3a5y new3gg and cheese biscuit. Just tasty goodness brought to me (and everyone) in part by newegg.com. Thanks newegg!

Kingston 4GB microSDHC Flash Card with microSD/SDHC USB Reader Model MRG2+SDC4/4GB
Kingston 4GB microSDHC Flash Card with microSD/SDHC USB Reader Model MRG2+SDC4/4GB

Pros: Love the miniature USB dongle. I've never seen one of these little things before, but its quite amazing. Just as small as the microSD card, yet serves as its USB link to the computer.

Cons: Very easy to lose the little thing. The USB dongle, not the card. :)

Overall Review: Maybe put like a little key finder type beeper on it to be able to locate it when its lost. HEH. But really, it's a great product.
