Love it

ASUS ROG Spatha X Wireless Gaming Mouse (Magnetic Charging Stand, 12 Programmable Buttons, 19,000 DPI, Push-fit Hot Swap Switch Sockets, ROG Micro Switches, ROG Paracord and Aura RGB lighting)
ASUS ROG Spatha X Wireless Gaming Mouse (Magnetic Charging Stand, 12 Programmable Buttons, 19,000 DPI, Push-fit Hot Swap Switch Sockets, ROG Micro Switches, ROG Paracord and Aura RGB lighting)

Pros: Weight and size are huge for me since I have bigger hands and tend to fling lightweight mice farther than intended. Easy to change switches allow you to pick the right style for you as well as replace worn out switches

Cons: DPI switch being changed from a quick 2 setting toggle to multiple profiles is a little annoying. Not for those who like lightweight or small gaming mice. It is heavy and it is big.

Overall Review: I bought the original Spatha when it came out and wore it out over the years with constant use. No other mouse has felt this comfortable for me as most manufacturers are focusing on lightweight and small mice that people with bigger hands struggle to use. This is the same chassis as the Spatha with minor hardware changes on the inside. Docking station no longer causes issues when it is connected and you use the mouse wired like it did with the Spatha.

Huge Disappointment

Rosewill - Black ATX Full Tower Gaming Computer Case - Supports E-ATX / XL-ATX Motherboards, Supports Up to 8 Fans - Throne-Window
Rosewill - Black ATX Full Tower Gaming Computer Case - Supports E-ATX / XL-ATX Motherboards, Supports Up to 8 Fans - Throne-Window

Pros: Relatively big and nice looking. Window wasn't broken like many I've read about so bonus egg for that.

Cons: -Fan controller A doesn't work -Lights on two front fans also don't work (took out and tried in another case to be sure) -Fairly tight with a top mounted water radiator (only able to get one fan on without blocking CPU power) -Random loose wire on front panel audio connector -Drive trays rattle since they are fairly loose. -No proper SSD mount, instead it gets screwed to the middle of a normal 3.5 -Feels like really cheap metal that would be used in a $50 case -Top fins are a struggle to open and keep that way.

Overall Review: Highly disappointed in this case. Seen several video reviews (Newegg TV included) and it seemed a whole lot nicer than what it really is. It almost seems as if it was a cheap ripoff that I bought for half the price. I've always loved this companies products but this has tarnished their name pretty bad for me. Will be contacting them to see what we can do to correct the major issues like random wires hanging out.

Amazing System

Pros: Great value

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: Overall i am extremely happy with this. Due to case (Rosewill Throne (Window)) and Motherboard (ROG Crosshair V Formula-Z) I was only able to stick one of the two fans onto the radiator (Thermaltake Luna 12 Slim currently on the way). Even with only the one fan going I have been able to overclock an AMD Fx-6350 to 4.56GHz without a temperature issue. Highest temp I have seen off of it so far has been 53C and that was while I also had my AMD ROG Strix Rx 480 gpu overclocked and running a benchmark. Very easy to assemble for anyone who has experience with IKEA furniture or computers, though could be confusing if it's your very first build. For the price, if you need a water system or want nearly no noise (can hear the water circulating) this is definitely a great choice. I can't say enough how amazing this system is. Just be careful when attaching the fans to the rad block as you can quite easily damage it since it doesn't seem to have a built in stopper for the screws. I know a lot of people go on about the Corsair brand AIOs but I honestly found this to be quieter and more efficient than those (again I'm currently working with only one fan on it).

Fair price

CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ32GX3M4X1600C10
CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ32GX3M4X1600C10

Pros: Good value for what you get and it's a pretty solid RAM that lasted through several OC settings.

Cons: Haven't had any problems with it.

Overall Review: Originally bought the solo 8GB when they first came out at the same price as the 32GB deal here. Now I'm doing another 32GB system and will happily use this again. For what you pay you can't go wrong, it's 32GB and works.
