Pros: I am somewhat of a WiFi junky, having played with every open source firmware under the Sun, not to mention various consumer router platforms. And I have to say, this N300RT is a little beastie. It's solid, has a strong signal and is quite stable. To top it off, it has plenty of memory and 5dBi antennas.

Cons: None really for the price. Don't go comparing this to more muscular routers like the RT-N16.

Overall Review: Repeater notes for those who are complaining that this device can not be used as a Repeater. It *can* be used as a repeater, but the Atheros chipset is different than Broadcom ones. Simply install the most stable DD-WRT firmware, and configure the Wireless Mode as a Client Bridge, and then configure a separate (and different) virtual interface for remote clients to connect to. Done. Also note that the Channel Width MUST be set to 20Mhz if using Client Bridge Mode, else the router will poop out and require a reset.

Pros: ipod dock charges ipod when cradled. Newegg continues to provide great service.

Cons: not very impressed with the sound quality. As pointed elsewhere on the Internet, the sound is very box and the mid-bottom end is quite "scooped" out and the top end was quite brittle. Also, the radio reception is poor even with attached antennas. And lastly, you have very little control over the ipod with the supplied remote.

Overall Review: For this price (newegg has the best deal around), I would have expected better performance. I bought this for my wife and neither of us could listen to it for very long.

Pros: Cheap Adjustable Padding keeps case from getting scratched

Cons: - flimsy - comes apart into two pieces with even the lightest load. - wheels are not good. Doesn't roll well. - not for heavy or big rigs

Overall Review: I have a Thermaltake mid-tower. I'd say it's a modest tower. Not too big or small. Right in the middle. This thing barely works with it. Once I got it set, it was OK, I suppose, but I have no plans on moving it even though it has wheels. Very wobbly. I'd opt for something more expensive and stable.

Pros: - Big. Carries a lot of poop. Big enough even for larger dumps

Cons: - lots of parts. I mean a lot. I know most of the components are important, but that's a lot of extra parts to lose AND hard to transport. It's the best out there though.

Overall Review: I would recommend it. The best in its class.

Pros: - It does what it's supposed to do, with a couple of notable flaws - Quiet-ish - Fan works OK, but like others said, make sure it's installed correctly. - Both SATA AND USB ports

Cons: - When on SATA, it won't wake up from sleep. It's fine on USB, which is a smidge slower than SATA. What happens is, if I shut my computer off, when I restart it, the drive doesn't spin up when connected via SATA. I had to toggle the on/off switch and then restart. No problem when using USB.

Overall Review: Would look for another enclosure.

Pros: I was able to get my 10700K to 5.1Ghz on all cores with an AIO 360mm cooler. Temps under 80C on full load. However (see cons) you have to know how to tweak your BIOS. - Has all of the features you need for an LGA 1200 board - Has latest 160Mhz WiFi > 500Mbs - Has ARBG for all of your weird lighting needs - 2 NVMe slots - Excellent Power delivery for overclocking (see cons) - Plenty of fan headers - great price

Cons: Not really a con, but Gigabyte boards seem to have overvoltage and associated heat issues. This seems to be due to the default voltage and VRM settings being WAY too aggressive. So not only would I recommend tweaking (reducing) the voltages across all settings to get the temps down (google how to do that), but most certainly if you plan on overclocking.

Overall Review: Most of the Z490 boards are overbuilt IMHO. You can get a lot of mileage out of this board if you plan and tweak accordingly. This board has everything you might need. The power delivery seems solid too.
