Fast and cheap

Western Digital Blue WD3200AAKS 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
Western Digital Blue WD3200AAKS 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

Pros: I was sent a B3 drive which has the single 320GB platter design, the performance is great. This is the fastest drive you can get for this capacity and price range.

Cons: No cons

Overall Review: I do not rate HDs based on expected reliability. If your data matters, just back it up. HDs can and will fail eventually.

ZOTAC ZT-40404-10P SYNERGY GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 768MB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
ZOTAC ZT-40404-10P SYNERGY GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 768MB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: -Currently the most inexpensive GTX 460 card. -Runs well with every game I have tried in 1600x1200 with high detail. Huge upgrade over my previous 8800GT. -Factory overclocked. -Lifetime warranty after you register it. -Zotac has a good website for card registration and rebate tracking. -Runs cool and quiet I have not seen this over 70C while running Furmark and the fan cannot be heard over my Lian Li case fans.

Cons: -No free game included

SAPPHIRE Radeon X1300XT 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100162L

Pros: Very good deal for people trying to spend less than $100 on a video card. These 1300XT cards are using the same cores as 1650Pro cards. ATI drives have improved a lot for people hesitant to switch from NVIDIA.

Cons: Nothing bad about this card for the price. You need to spend 40-50% more to get a really noticable performance jump over this.

Pros: Works fine, price was low, have been using Kingston memory for a while without an issue

Cons: None really. If the card did fail for any reason Kingston has it covered
