HACKINT0SH CHAMPION!!

GIGABYTE GA-Z77-DS3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-Z77-DS3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: You can install OSX Lion just as easy as Windows 7 with this board. No special DSDT or other hacks required. Literally just boot from the thumb drive and enjoy Lion. I have it set to dual boot into either windows 7 or lion at the moment. Check tonymacx86.com for more info on this great board. Sleep/wake works great. Audio works great. Networking works great. I paired it with a i5 2500k and it plays games just great from the app store.

Cons: Not many extra fancy ports! I wish it had a few more Sata ports as I have 2 hard drives I can't even connect! Had to sacrifice some things to get the board recommended by everyone for my OSX wants.

Don't Buy

Mushkin Enhanced Chronos 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MKNSSDCR240GB
Mushkin Enhanced Chronos 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MKNSSDCR240GB

Pros: The included 2.5 to 3.5 bracket is well made. Price is good.

Cons: Purchased 2 of them. 1 failed after 3 weeks of use. (Constant blue screens after resuming from sleep and then total failure)

Overall Review: I have built over 50 computers on the side for friends and family and will not purchase another one of these. I am sticking to my OCZ drives. I have submitted a ticket for RMA through their website. Newegg refused to help as it has been after 30 days.

Unique Look - Plenty of Room For Any GPU

Thermaltake Core V21 Black Extreme Micro ATX Cube Chassis CA-1D5-00S1WN-00

Pros: -Cool looks - really stands out. -Nice magnetic dust guards -All sides are removable to make it easy to work on

Cons: -Why is the front logo a magnet? This is lost almost immediately upon delivery to customer leaving an empty front panel that looks odd. -1 star for this. No need to have it be removable.

Overall Review: -If you were building a server farm, stacking these would look awesome.

Works at Full Speed With Ryzen 2700x

G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16D-16GTZR
G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16D-16GTZR

Pros: -Worked with XMP profile on older 1st gen Ryzen motherboard. -Cool RGB Lights -Price was right during BF sale.

Cons: -None found at this point

Overall Review: -Chose this for my own PC to upgrade from an older G.Skill set that was struggling to run full speed with my Ryzen setup. This set worked out of the box with XMP profile and did not require any manual settings. I don't care for the RGB lights honestly, just wanted a set of ram that could hit 3200 without issue.

My Go-To Card For Mid-range Gaming

EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GAMING, 04G-P4-6251-KR, 4GB GDDR5, DX12 OSD Support (PXOC)
EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GAMING, 04G-P4-6251-KR, 4GB GDDR5, DX12 OSD Support (PXOC)

Pros: -Small form factor ensures it will fit in almost any case -No need for ATX power (Pulls power from motherboard) -Nice design -Quite fan

Cons: -None that I have found so far

Overall Review: -I have purchased (8) of these cards and had great success with all of them. I use this card for mid-range gaming as well as office scenarios that need triple monitor support. If you can catch this card when it has a MIR, you can't beat the price.
