Pros: Works like it it is supposed to. Have one plugged into my Nvidia 760 in one port, and an hdmi cable in the other. Works like a charm

Cons: Was not free

Most Critical Review

Static / Unbearable

Razer Carcharias Over Ear Xbox 360/PC Gaming Headset
Razer Carcharias Over Ear Xbox 360/PC Gaming Headset

Pros: Very comfortable / whole reason why I bought them.

Cons: Horrible static from day one. I tried everything to get these headphones to work because I really wanted them. I have multiple computers and they preformed the same insane static sound at any volume level. Razer says its because my outlets are not grounded, but they are. I have a ground tester, and tested all of my outlets to no avail. Someone said use a USB charger and directly plug the headphones into the wall, but it still produced the same static. At the end of the day I am going to have to return the headphones, and start researching other options. Very disappointed that these didnt work out.

Unforseen Problem?

GIGABYTE G1 Gaming GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0) LGA 1150 Intel Z97 HDMI USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE G1 Gaming GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5 (rev. 1.0) LGA 1150 Intel Z97 HDMI USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Great features in a small package, and great reliability.

Cons: See below.

Overall Review: The motherboard being a micro ATX creates problems because the PCI 1x and the PCI 16x are so close together that my gigantic 970 video card that sucks so much power is bleeding EMI (Electro magnetic Interference) into my sound blaster sound card due to the fact there is only about 3 cm separation. My friends complain they hear noise distortion and static. Because of this, I'm ironically probably going to be using the on board sound for the Mic alone. Sigh.

Hard Drive Clicking at 1.5 Years

Pros: Great space for the cost.

Cons: Started to fail after 1.5 years. Just noticed today that this hard drive started clicking. Don't know if I just have really bad luck with this company, but I purchased one 3 TB hard drive which was DOA, and this hard drive is failing after 1.5 years of use. I think in the future I'm going to go with another company that does better with quality assurance.

Pros: Lotta space for the money.

Cons: 1 drive works, 1 is DOA. Got two of these for a RAID Setup, and nothing recognizes the drive. Placed in two PC's, 1 Network Storage Unit, and 1 Drive enclosure but it still refuses to work.
