Solid

RAZER Black USB Wired BlackWidow Ultimate Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
RAZER Black USB Wired BlackWidow Ultimate Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Pros: Mechanical keys have a nice sturdy click to them, very responsive, the backlighting is nice macros are easy to setup, and they keyboard generally feels very solid and well made,

Cons: Cant change color of backlighting, for $130 keyboard youd think it would, Likes to collect grease and fingerprints, But it is very shiny so i allready knew that, kinda hard to clean, They symbols on keys dont light up all u see is the letters or number, which stinks if u forget where a symbol is in the dark the media keys arent dedicated, so you gotta press the function key to control sound up or down.

Overall Review: Out of the box it takes up 2 usp ports, the cord is very firm and not extremely long for some reason allaround a very decent keyboard

Most Critical Review

Lacking features

SilverStone RAVEN RV01-BW Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case
SilverStone RAVEN RV01-BW Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case

Pros: Great airflow, the twist makes for more efficient heat management, Great size, and great looks,

Cons: Its a bit lacking and some things are poorly thought out, specialy for a $200.00 case, With the Mobo twist, all ur usb ports are on the top of the case, making them harder to use because of the cover that goes over top, this being said, is a major downfall, with only 2 usb ports in the front leaves you with little room to connect periphials that would normally be easier accesed via rear usb, like for instance a controller, with all the usb ports being covered, you would think they would include more USB's (especially for gamers) in the front, it also lacks USB 3.0, and with the mobo flip, sata cables have to travel alot further, so extended sata cables are a must, for a $200 case, your kinda not geting all the features you would with a similarly priced enthusiast grade case full tower, no E-sata

Overall Review: This case for it to work properly has to have a clean cable system, any blockages even minor will significantly lower its effectiveness, over al if your looking for a agressive looking case, with efficient cooling, this is for you, if your looking for a case with a ton of features, look elsewhere, like i said the lack of usb's and E-sata's to me is a significant downfall for such a pricey case, this is not for everyone.

Not really UV

APEVIA  CF14SL-BGN  140mm UV green LED fan w/3-pin and 4-pin connectors and black grill
APEVIA CF14SL-BGN 140mm UV green LED fan w/3-pin and 4-pin connectors and black grill

Pros: Big, quiet, bright

Cons: here is my issue with these fans, they have green LED's in them and i used one for my rear exhaust, which happens to be realy close my cpu LQ loop the LED's are so bright it washed out all the glow that my uv cathode puts out so nothin in my case was glowing, the blades themselves are UV reactive so i took out the LED's and this fan looks really nice under a Uv light

Needs color

CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CWCH60) High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CWCH60) High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

Pros: All in 1 water cooling system easy to install, and it works, cheap

Cons: Has no style.

Overall Review: Corsair would sell alot more of these if they were to make the tubing clear and add UV dye, Some of the major WOW factors of watercooling is the WOW factor, i mean they just look downright cool! Id buy this in a heartbeat if it was colored with clear uv tubing, you can mod these, but, i really dont want to do all that extra work and take the risks of breaking it. you feel me?
