Pretty good

Genius GX-Gaming LYCHAS Foldable Gaming Headset (HS-G550)
Genius GX-Gaming LYCHAS Foldable Gaming Headset (HS-G550)

Pros: Looks great Adjustable sound on the ear cups Good sound quality Good mic quality Ear cup swivel is nice Blocks out a lot of sound, but allows you to be able to hear someone who's right by you. Can fold up relativly small Mic on/off switch it nice Fits over my semi big ears Volume control works great Would buy again

Cons: If you have a big head it feels like it's squashing you for the first few times you wear them, but after a short while they're comfortable and you won't really know they're there. I would love them more if they were wireless, but for the cost I can live without it. Makes a rubbing sound on the ear cushion cover if you move your head a lot. Would have been better if lined with fabric instead of plastic covering. Cord is too long if your computer is right beside you, but that can be fixed with a cloths pin.

Overall Review: When I first found this headset I was afraid of buying them since it only had one review, but when my old headset broke into two pieces I took the risk. I've had other headsets in the past that I paid the same amount for, but the mic quality wasn't as good as this set. If I had too, I would buy again. -1 egg because rubbing sound, mentioned in the cons. It's bearable and doesn't really happen unless you move your head a lot, but can be annoying at times. Bottom line, worth it.

Recieved a dirty lemon

ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PRO AM4 AMD B550 USB 3.0 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PRO AM4 AMD B550 USB 3.0 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: -Refunded

Cons: -Dirty/Crunchy sound when socketing the GPU and ram instead of a nice clean click -Couldn't overclock my ram to the proper speed -BSOD -Had to manually contact Newegg via chat to get my refund when it should have been automatic -Been waiting almost 3 weeks for restock while competitors have had this board in stock. I would have already switched to one if I didn't use the nonrefundable Newegg gift card credit for my purchase. I wont be doing that again...

Overall Review: I noticed that while slotting in the ram and GPU the board sounded dirty/crunchy instead a clean click. This was worrying, but I went ahead and gave it a chance. After starting it up and trying to tinker with the bios settings I found that I couldn't overclock my memory to the correct settings. This board just wouldn't accept it and kept restarting its self every time I attempted it just one setting higher. So I had to set it back to default, about half speed, to just get it online. The ram wasn't even the fastest that the board supported. I didn't try to overclock anything else and left everything on default. I tried installing Linux Mint, but had issues with drivers and components being able to be recognized. Switched to Windows 10 and still had driver issues, but with a blue screen of death addition. Both OS's ran stupidly slow and couldn't recognize the GPU while using this board, but switching to another board worked fine. Be aware that you might receive a lemon if you order this board. That is if it ever comes back in stock. -If I ever receive a working board I'll update my review.

The price is what makes this

Rosewill FB-02 Black ATX Mid Tower Computer Case, come with 1x 80mm Fan
Rosewill FB-02 Black ATX Mid Tower Computer Case, come with 1x 80mm Fan

Pros: 1. Price by far. I caught this case on one of newegg's shell shocker deals. 2. Color is simple and plan for someone who just needs a replacement case instead of a "HEY LOOK AT ME" case. 3. Nice big blue on button. 4. Plenty of room for multiple hard drives 5. Small and lightweight.

Cons: 1. Very limited space, depth wise. The case came with a 80mm exhaust fan that I almost had to completely remove because it was getting in way of the motherboard's CPU fan. It all worked out in the end, but now the case fan is setting right on top of the CPU fan's rim. With this much room to work with I don't think adding a 120mm fan to the side will be an option. 2. I had to reroute the case cords so I could plug them into the motherboard. It would have been nice to have better cable management, but at least it works.

Overall Review: Why have a place for a front 80mm fan when there isn't any holes on the front of the case to allow it to stuck more air in? Design FAIL lol

Nice For The Price

Genius MousePen 8x6 Tablet 2000 LPI Resolution 1024 Pressure level, Cordless Pen & Wireless Scroll Mouse
Genius MousePen 8x6 Tablet 2000 LPI Resolution 1024 Pressure level, Cordless Pen & Wireless Scroll Mouse

Pros: Very nice and cheap tablet. I would recommend this product to anyone, especially if they are just starting out using programs like PhotoShop or Gimp, if they want a very sensitive tablet to do more detailed and more unique work, and/or if they don't have much money. Another cool feature is the hot keys, but if you don't want or like them than you can turn them off.

Cons: Its kinda hard to get used to the pen when you first start out, but with about an hour or two of practice there really isn't anything to it.

Overall Review: All and all, I give this product a 8/10, because I couldn't figure out how to change out the battery in the pen, and the tablet was too small to suit me.

Good

OCZ Diesel 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive OCZUSBDSL16G
OCZ Diesel 16GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive OCZUSBDSL16G

Pros: Small size, speed, huge capacity makes it ideal for pretty much anything.

Cons: No necklace or key chain included and wasn't exactly 16 GB that was advertised.

Overall Review: The first thing I notice about the drive was its size; ruffly 2 inches. The size made it easy to attach it to my “overly attached” computer (+1 point). The second thing I noticed was no key chain or necklace included (-1 point). Luckily, I had an extra one laying around. The third thing I noticed was it's speed. It took 50 seconds to upload a 720 MB video, and four minutes, 35 seconds to upload a 1.65 GB file full of videos, pictures, and document files onto the drive. A lot faster than my the last drive (+2.5 points). The forth thing I noticed was the transfer rate. It took 25 seconds to download a 720 MB video, and one minute, 45 seconds to download 1.65 GB of random stuff onto my computer. No quality lost! (+2.5 points) The final thing I noticed was the capacity; 14.9 GB without anything on it. The bigger the flash drive the more likely it will lose some information holding capabilities, but 1.1 GB loss is kinda a lot from the advertised size (-1 point). Grand total of 4/5. I would
