Great!

hec Zephyr 1000 1000W ATX12V V2.2 / EPS12V V2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Certified 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply
hec Zephyr 1000 1000W ATX12V V2.2 / EPS12V V2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Certified 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: Extremely high output, modular.

Cons: The primary cables aren't modular, don't know if that's available anywhere or not, but I would have liked it since I don't use any of the old four pin drive supplies.

Overall Review: Pretty rocking, I should be good on power supplies for a long time.

Most Critical Review

pretty cheesy

Rosewill R223-P-BK 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Rosewill R223-P-BK 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Cheap, laid out nice enough, plenty of space. Fan included is pretty good. Nice switch and USB wiring. Very lightweight? Is that a plus?

Cons: Extremely thin material! Very delicate as a result. Just looking at it wrong bends it all out of shape. I'm used to cases being sturdy and durable, this one is absolutely not.

Overall Review: Rigidity aside, it serves it's purpose I suppose. And it looks almost decent. Just be aware that it's very delicate...

Great!

OCZ Reaper HPC 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2RPR10664GK
OCZ Reaper HPC 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2RPR10664GK

Pros: This ram has been great, I ordered another 4GB kit with my upgrade to Windows 7. 8GB, a first for my home computer. Runs cool, no stability issues I've found, pretty good stuff.

Cons: Heat risers take up a little room, may not be the best choice for a cramped case.

Overall Review: Great!

Great!

Logitech G940 Flight System

Pros: Great quality, I've owned many different types. This one is nice.

Cons: wasn't free? :) Pretty solid product, so I can't really think of any cons.

Overall Review: I don't play flight sims much any more, wish I'd considered that before throwing some money out there. But that's my fault, not the products. :)

Not bad, not great

ASUS VW246H Glossy Black 24" HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 ASCR 20000:1 (1000:1) Built-in Speakers
ASUS VW246H Glossy Black 24" HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 ASCR 20000:1 (1000:1) Built-in Speakers

Pros: Big display. Fast, essentially no latency.

Cons: mediocre image quality, faint blur effect, non adjustable stand

Overall Review: For the price, pretty good. I'd kinda wish I'd spent a few more dollars for something better, but this is alright I suppose.

Insane

EVGA GeForce GTX 275 896MB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 896-P3-1170-AR
EVGA GeForce GTX 275 896MB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 896-P3-1170-AR

Pros: Ungodly fast, extremely stable, quiet, SLI capable, great drivers.

Cons: Gigantic. There's no way this would fit in a miniATX case. High power consumption, needs a very healthy power supply with two 6 pin connectors available. And that's per card!! An SLI setup would need four 6 pin connectors!

Overall Review: Best video card I've owned, without a doubt. Very happy with this card.
