Most Favorable Review

Good case for the price.

RAIJINTEK AGOS, Removable 3.5"HDD Cage, USB 3.0, 12025*2 Preinstalled, 7 PCI Slots, Dust-Control Filters, Tool-Free System for ODD & HDD, Support 410mm VGA Card & 165mm CPU Cooler, Efficient air flow

Pros: Everything fits in this case including a Hyper 212 Evo CPU cooler. Speedy delivery. No rebate. Ventilated, quiet, and has removable filters.

Cons: Eye piercing, bright blue power light. I used a dab of red nail polish on mine to make it a cooler purple but I'm sure you could think of all kinds of solutions for this problem. Some of the advertising says that 160mm CPU coolers fit some say 165mm.

Overall Review: Seems like $50 or $60 is a great price for this case considering you can get some of the better known brand cases for around that price after a mail in rebate.

DONT BUY AT ANY PRICE

iView-754TPC 7" Tablet PC Cortex A8 1.20GHz 512MB DDR3 4GB Flash Wi Fi Android 4.0
iView-754TPC 7" Tablet PC Cortex A8 1.20GHz 512MB DDR3 4GB Flash Wi Fi Android 4.0

Pros: Absolutely none. Newegg is not the company it used to be.

Cons: The screen is completely unresponsive. When I enabled "Keeping track of touches" the thing thinks I am touching it even when I am not. It took me forever to enter my wireless password and games are completely unplayable.

Overall Review: The first one I got came with a cracked screen so I got an R.M.A. and sent it back. The phone representative said that I would be getting an email with a UPS label, but I never did and I had to pay for return shipping. Because I did not send back the free sdhc card they credited me $10 less than what I paid. On top of that it took like a month for them to approve the R.M.A. So long story short I paid way too much for this thing and I had to wait a month just to see had badly it sucks.

Maximum bang for the buck.

MSI H81M-P33 LGA 1150 Intel H81 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Inexpensive, works good. SATA ports do not get covered up by a large video card.

Cons: No bells or whistles.

Overall Review: I got this board for $28 and an i5 4670K for $160. Put in 4 GB of 1333 RAM that I had laying around and boom, cheap, amazing upgrade.

Broke way to easy

Rosewill RFFC-11004 Middle Back Fabric Manager’s Chair - Black
Rosewill RFFC-11004 Middle Back Fabric Manager’s Chair - Black

Pros: It was cheap.

Cons: I didn't use this chair too much but the other day I was leaning back (just a little) and the chair broke. It was always kind of cheap and squeaky but as long as it held up I didn't care. Now I feel like I just paid $60 to rent an office chair for the last 4 months.

Overall Review: I guess you get what you pay for. I'll be getting my chairs off of Craigslist from now on.

Pros: Inexpensive, study and reliable. G850 8 Gigs Gskills Ripjaws Evga gtx550ti

Cons: I reviewed this shortly after I got it and since then fixed the problem that was the only con, so I decided to write another review.

Overall Review: When I first got this I had a problem installing some of the drivers from their website so I made an image of the driver disk on my other machine (no dvd reader on this one) and the drivers installed and work like a champ.

sturdy and cheap

Rosewill R101-P-BK 120mm Fan MicroATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Rosewill R101-P-BK 120mm Fan MicroATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Looks nice, not too loud and everything fits (barely.) Big fan keeps it cool.

Cons: The front USB ports feel kind of cheap when plugging something into them. For some reason I can barely see the power LED and the HDD light doesn't seem to work at all. Not that big of a deal though.
