C2G 43098 25 ft. HD15 M/M UXGA MONITOR CABLE with 3.5mm AUDIO

Pros: Excelent price for a high quality video cable with a built in audio port.

Cons: none

Overall Review: I am using this so i can hook up my computer to my lcd tv so i can play games and sit on the couch while my computer is hidden away in a cabinet. The cable works great, no interference of any kind. Highly recommended to anyone who has a long run from their computer. And as always Newegg shipping rocks!

Most Critical Review

Good Performance Poor Quality

EVGA GeForce 7600GS 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 256-P2-N541-T2
EVGA GeForce 7600GS 256MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 256-P2-N541-T2

Pros: The card has very good performance considering the price. I am able to play all my games with descent frame rates such as FEAR, TF2 and CS:S. It is not the fastest but it does the job.

Cons: I have two of these cards in different computers and both of the fans have failed. the fans actually melted and froze themselves. One of the cards has a few bulging capacitors that are getting ready to go.

Overall Review: I recommend replacing the heat sink right away BEFORE your fan fails. i bought the ARCTIC COOLING Accelero S2 and my cards are fine now. now more heat issues. No more fan noise since it a fanless heatsink, highly recommended for maintenance free use. I own other evga cards and love them but these cards are upsetting when it comes to cooling. Buy and after market cooler!

Great Card

PNY GeForce GTS 250 1GB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card VCGGTS2501XPB
PNY GeForce GTS 250 1GB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card VCGGTS2501XPB

Pros: This card comes at a great price, especially if you get the rebate. I didn't want to spend too much money on a new card since the rest of my system is pretty old. I upgraded from my aging 7900gt sli 256mb cards to this, BIG difference. Now i can play my favorite games like L4D2 and TF2 on the highest settings. The cooling is adequate, but only half the air is vented out the back, the other half goes back into the case due to the cooler design. As long as your case has adequate ventilation, you wont have any problems with gpu temps. i have never had the gpu fan idle up even after hours of playing games.

Cons: The card is long, compared to my old 7900gt, so make sure that it will fit in your case. I wish all the hot air was vented out the back.

Overall Review: It is not the fastest card but it has a great price/performance ratio. My System: CPU = AMD 4400 x2 Motherboard = Abit AN8 32X GPU = PNY GTS250 Memory = Corsair XMS 2x1gb Power Supply = Thermaltake 750w

Great Product

ARCTIC COOLING Accelero S2 VGA Cooler
ARCTIC COOLING Accelero S2 VGA Cooler

Pros: This works great. I use it on my eVGA 7600gs. For some reason, with the stock cooler while playing games, the temps would reach a scary 105c. After i put this on, they never go above 60c. What a difference. And even better, my case is quieter since there is one less fan. This was a simple install.

Cons: none.

Overall Review: Newegg shipping rocks.
