Quiet but expensive
Pros: Very quiet power supply, the fan almost never turns on even when stressing my machine to the maximum (Radeon 5870 + i5-2500K). Plenty of cable and lenght is just what I need, and you can use only those you need since this power supply is fully modular.
Cons: The only con I can find is obviouly the price. But you got what you pay for so you will be satified if you buy this.
Overall Review: The next generation (X660) is out for more than a year now and Newegg does not carry it, so it's a hard sell at 160$ when you know you can get a latest generation at the same price.
Not bad
Pros: The keyboard is great and the shortcut on the keyboard are well placed and very useful. Does'nt make too much noise, but this is a matter of personnal preferences. Good range, comfortable, got this kit for 20$ on a shellshocker so im double pleased :D
Cons: The downside now : the mouse. This is pure garbage : unprecise, low range, battery eater, very basic function, the red light is annoying me.
Overall Review: I removed 2 eggs because of the mouse, since one of part of the kit has a near 0 score and the other one a 10/10, I think 3 eggs is fair if you consider this as a combo, but the keyboard shines. It also come with 4 AA Duracell, great addition compared to usual noname brand you often get.
Horrible ANC but comfortable and 3.5mm jack.
Pros: - Comfortable for my big head (bit hot after 1hour) - USB-C - OK battery life - Can work with a 3.5mm jack
Cons: - Horrible noise canceling. - Multiple devices pairing is a pain when it works
Overall Review: I bought those basically for the noise canceling feature. It's there but without any music or call you can hear a lot of white noise. I bought other headphones at that price which perform better but hey, there are still very cheap. Would not buy again but if it's fine with you to miss on ANC then you're good. Mic quality is OK too.
Cheap and basic
Pros: It's small and light, basic phone. Seems study enought to keep it right in my pocket, no case. It's unlocked so I will be able to use it as a backup phone whatever phone compagny I'm with.
Cons: Took off 2 eggs because of it's lack of features. As I said it's a very basic phone, with a very low level of features.
Overall Review: Some reviews said they had to recharge sometimes the phone after less than a day of use. However, I never experienced that. The reason is quite simple : there's simply nothing else to do other than to talk with that phone. Simple to start : charge, put your old SIM card, and that's it, no activation or whatever ;)
Big and silent
Pros: 1- Huge capacity. 2- Very silent, I could only hear it when spinning up in an external enclosure. Now it's inside the PC, it's dead silent. 3- Performance on par with other 5400rpm drive (it should NOT be used as a system drive).
Cons: 1- Warranty "only" 3 years 2- 5400rpm drive's in general are not very fast, just enought for storage, just like this one.
Overall Review: The price of hard drives has doubled within less than 6 months because of the flood in Thailand (thanks globalisation), you should wait a bit before buying a hard drive, you might regret it in 6 month, maybe buy a smaller one for now. To the guy complaining for his server, use the RE4 edition drives they are meant to use in server, 24/7.
Cheap and...cheap
Pros: I had it on a ShellShocker for 25$ free shipping, so this low price is the only reason I bought this psu : I needed a power supply to go in my low tech HTPC made of old pieces of hardware. But it has a 120mm fan
Cons: 1- Not very discrete unit, it makes too much noise for the livingroom :/ 2- Cables are not sleeved, it makes a mess quickly 3- Too few connectors 4- It generates a lot of heat due to it's really poor efficency
Overall Review: Don't be fooled by the advertised 680watts claim, this unit will caught fire way before it gets to there. It only has 20A+20A +12v rails so there's not much power in it. Mine didn't made smoke when I started it but a horrible smell of chinese hardware. Fortunatly, it was gone after a few days.
