Most Favorable Review
Thermaltake Chaser A31 VP300A5W2N Blue SECC ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case
Thermaltake Chaser A31 VP300A5W2N Blue SECC ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case

Pros: -Only $80 -The Blue finish in the case is amazing, and the inside is powdercoated black -All the cables are either all black or sleeved -Side Panel window is perfect size -Comes with tons of screws, and the 5.25' bays are super easy to remove -Plenty of room for cable management

Cons: -Bigger than i thought it would be, but its my fault for not measuring -Wish the cables for the fans were shorter, but theyre black so you cant see them anyway

Overall Review: -Best looking case out right now in my opinion

Most Critical Review

Do Not Buy

RAIDMAX RX-500AF Continuous 500 watts ATX 12V v2.3/EPS 12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Power Supply
RAIDMAX RX-500AF Continuous 500 watts ATX 12V v2.3/EPS 12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Power Supply

Pros: -Sleeved Cables

Cons: -I hate the turbo fan mode on the back -This PSU keeps casuing ym computer to shut off during high load situations, waste of $40 dollars

Overall Review: -Listen to other 1 egg reviews, the risk isn't worth it -Spend a little more money and get a know, reliable PSU

Silent

be quiet! SFX L Power 600W Power Supply | 80 PLUS Gold Efficiency | Full Cable Selection | Quiet Operation | SFX to ATX Adapter Bracket
be quiet! SFX L Power 600W Power Supply | 80 PLUS Gold Efficiency | Full Cable Selection | Quiet Operation | SFX to ATX Adapter Bracket

Pros: - Does exactly what a PSU needs to do, works - 0 fan noise, 0 coil whine - Be Quiet build quality is always great - More than enough juice for my ITX build

Cons: - I hate "daisy chained" PCI-E cables. There are two 6+2 PCI-E on the same cable, and my GPU only needs one, so I had to tuck the other connector away. Would be nice to have one cable be just a single 6+2, and the other be two 6+2. Just being nit-picky here though.

Overall Review: Would most definitely buy again. Short cable runs mean building in an ITX chassis is easy. Currently powering my R5 5600 and XFX 6600 build in my Meshlicious.

Awesome GPU

EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-2662-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-2662-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: -Love the looks of this EVGA cooler, this was actually the main selling point on EVGA for me -Stays cool and quiet, max temp I've seen is in Arma 3 at around 70*C -Takes only one 6-pin power connector, so it uses very little power -Easy to SLI these, and they scale amazingly, 2 of these in SLi will easily beat a 680 in everything -For ~$180, pretty decent performance -4 phase power design -Overclockes like crazy, it says 1111MHz, but when I got mine, it ran at 1176 Mhz. Right now she is at 1252 Mhz, this is crazy

Cons: -Can get noisy, but that's why we have EVGA Precision X -Don't really like the fact that, in order to fit the cooler on, they had to extend it past the PCB, but no biggy

Overall Review: -If you can afford to spend $15 more dollars, go with EVGA's ACX cooler design. They're cooler and quieter, but for SFF builds, a blower style gpu is the way to go

Decent Mouse

GIGABYTE GM-FORCE M7 THOR Black 5 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse
GIGABYTE GM-FORCE M7 THOR Black 5 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse

Pros: -Price (I actually got this for $20) -6400 DPI with the software -Love the soft touch that's on the mouse -First "gaming" mouse I've ever used, and I love it -I like customizing the forward and back buttons for melee or flares in my FPS -The feet on the bottom glide like butter

Cons: -Fit, if you have smaller hands, this thing will seem huge. I can almost palm a basketball and it's just the right size for me -Comfort, even after a month of use, I'm still getting used to the shape. For the first week of use, my hand was sore from the different position my hand was in -Pushing forward on the DPI button is like squishy and not tactile like pulling backward on it is -Noticed when Planetside 2, the mouse doesn't like to have right mouse clicked while the left is held down

Overall Review: -Recommend this to anyone, especially for the price, it is unbeatable
