Great bang for your buck!

MSI 24" (Actual size 23.6") 144Hz VA FHD Widescreen LED Backlight Gaming Monitor AMD FreeSync DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort Optix MAG240VC
MSI 24" (Actual size 23.6") 144Hz VA FHD Widescreen LED Backlight Gaming Monitor AMD FreeSync DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort Optix MAG240VC

Pros: Was pleasantly surprised by this monitor. It had all the features I wanted aside from Gsync (which I wasn't willing to pay so much extra for). I was hesitant due to the price honestly, and the lack of other reviews but but I found the product to be top notch. The build quality is great it feels very solid and was easy to set up, just 3 small screws. I was a little taken aback when I first turned it on as the overall brightness of the screen seemed low. However configuring it properly in Windows (setting the refresh rate to 144 instead of 60) instantly helped! Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a nice monitor on at a great price.

Cons: Doesn't come with a Display Port cable.

Overall Review: Consider saving a few hundred bucks and giving this monitor a try!

Do not buy!!!!

Pros: Looks cool. Awesome blue back lighting, keys feel nice (I personally like the texture of them) Volume and lighting controls are easy to use. Is fairly comfortable to use for long periods.

Cons: This keyboard drives me absolutely nutts. Before buying it I read all the negative reviews, but I saw it on the shelf at "this other retail store" and it looked so sweet I had to have it! I have been so disappointed. The issue is, that randomly, and without cause or explanation, keys will just "stop" working! No glitch no error message, I will be running and gunning in the middle of something important and bam! two or 3 number keys and a couple letter keys all stop working! The only fix is to reboot the computer. I have tried uninstalling the driver, downloading the latest ones off razer's website, nothing helps.

Overall Review: The only thing this keyboard has going for it is looks, I would recommend staying away from it, there are cheaper and better quality options out there that are FAR more reliable.......I'm shopping for a replacement as I type this:)

Awesome!

Beats by Dr. Dre Orange Studio 3.5mm Connector On Ear Powered Isolation Headphone (Orange)

Pros: Great sound and very comfortable to wear for hours. Carrying case is nice and they have put up with frequent use very well.

Cons: Batteries required, I don't mind too much but it would be nice to have an option to use them without noise cancellation. I'm not sure how much if any power from the batteries is used to power the drivers?

Overall Review: The not super intelligent person who said they don't work with new apple products? Completely wrong, lol. Probably has his case on and didn't plug the cable in all the way. There is no way a software version would affect the use of this specific device, it would be an issue with anything plugged into the audio jack. Great headphones and this is a great price! Hope they are back in stock soon.

Awesome!

Pros: Great size, feels sturdy, love the keyboard and num pad, backlight is great and the things looks hot:)

Cons: Wouldn't mind if the Blu Ray Codec came on a disk or you could get a product code with the laptop. I rebuilt my machine from the ground up when I got it (added more ram, a 256 gig SSD and win 7 Enterprise) and would have liked to be able to have the original Blu Ray capability the unit shipped with.

Overall Review: At the other person, who tried to buy this from a different site and wrote a 1 egg review here - Why? lol. This is a top notch machine, no need to write a scathing review just because you weren't able to get one. My machine is a higher end unit than this one but essentially the same, can't go wrong here:)
