Incredible

Galaxy GeForce 8500 GT 512MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Low Profile Graphics Card 85GFE8HDFCXX
Galaxy GeForce 8500 GT 512MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Low Profile Graphics Card 85GFE8HDFCXX

Pros: I put this in my HP Slimline PC today and it was worth every penny (even though it is/was so cheap). Great product if you just need to make a simple upgrade to play some high end games or just watch videos. I use this to play call of duty 4 and working on buying crysis which I know this card can run.

Cons: Confusing directions which didn't include how to use the low profile setup. Easy to figure out though.

Overall Review: Don't use the CD that comes with the card, goto nvidia's site and get the newest driver and use that. The drivers on the CD are well outdated.

Most Critical Review
20ft 8 Gauge 1000W Amplifier Installation Kit
20ft 8 Gauge 1000W Amplifier Installation Kit

Pros: This kit comes with everything you need to put together an amplifier system in your vehicle.

Cons: It says 8 gauge and looks 8 gauge but if you look closely, the wires just have a lot of wire coating covering what looks like 20 gauge. The wires look great and will do that job for a 1000 watt system but usually 8 gauge wires should take car of 1,500 watt systems which this cannot.

Overall Review: Worth buying as long as your not pushing anymore than 1000 watts.

Decent Washable Keyboard

Logitech K310 920-004033 Wired Washable Keyboard - Black/White
Logitech K310 920-004033 Wired Washable Keyboard - Black/White

Pros: Washable, white keys, not too expensive.

Cons: Keys are a bit clunky and don't feel quite right compared to my old cheaper Logitech keyboard. Feels like a cross between a lighter mechanical keyboard and a laptop keyboard.

Overall Review: Not a huge fan on the keyboard, but I will end up using it eventually and getting used to it. Bought it since I like white keys and the flat style keys, similar to my old Apple Wired Keyboard. Quality is not the same and should have just spent the little extra to get another Apple Keyboard.

My 9800GTX+ was better

EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 Graphics Card 01G-P4-3650-KR
EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 Graphics Card 01G-P4-3650-KR

Pros: - Smaller profile due to not having SLI support. - It's EVGA

Cons: Honestly, not really any improvement over my 9800GTX+ card I replaced with this card. I was hoping it would be a decent upgrade for the price, but I was very wrong in that aspect. Here I am a little over a year later and just purchased a 780 Superclocked to replace this one. I really only play Battlefield 4 on my PC and this card has to have everything set to low to actually play with about 40-60 FPS. I actually have to underclock the card to fix an Nvidia driver bug, which doesn't help the situation any. There are much better cards for a bit more out there and I suggest those over this one. Has nothing to do with EVGA themselves, it's just not a performing series.

Overall Review: I will continue to purchase/recommend EVGA products because they are top of the line, quality cards. This card was just much lower than my expectations and here I am having to purchase a newer card a year later.

Decent Headset

Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound, Wireless Headphones with Microphone
Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 with 7.1 Surround Sound, Wireless Headphones with Microphone

Pros: Wireless, great sound/surround sound, comfortable, all controls are on the headset itself.

Cons: As others mentioned, there are times where there will be a crackling and popping sound, I've only had it happen once in the week I've owned them and it was when a game was loading. I haven't heard it since. No disconnecting issues like others mentioned, but for those who are having disconnecting issues, see other thoughts.

Overall Review: Overall, this has been my first real headset and I love it. I cannot imagine playing games without it now. For the people having issues with disconnecting, make sure you change your wireless router settings for the 2.4Ghz range to a specific channel instead of auto. That is what causes disconnection. Since your router will jump through channels constantly, it will always land on the same channel being used by the headset. If you restrict it to a channel, it won't affect the headset anymore. This is the case with anything wireless on the 2.4Ghz range. I've already changed my channel on my router due to an issue I was having with my wireless mouse, so I've not had any issues with it and was able to roam around rooms without the signal cutting out.

Great Value

PNY Optima 2GB DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Desktop Memory Model MD2048SD2-667
PNY Optima 2GB DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Desktop Memory Model MD2048SD2-667

Pros: Beautiful piece of RAM! PNY is a well-known name brand so when you buy this, you know you are getting something of high quality. For the price, it comes with a heat spreader which adds a nice touch to your PC. It does it's job and it improved my 1GB (512 x2) HP Slimline's Index Rating from 3.2 to 4.8. Of course my final RAM amount is 2.5 GBs. This id s great upgrade!

Cons: None so far although my HP slimline was a pain to remove/insert RAM but that is HP's fault...

Overall Review: Highly suggested!
