Beautiful & Well Built Case

Cooler Master MasterCase H500 ARGB Airflow ATX Mid-Tower with Mesh and Transparent Front Panel Option, Dual 200mm ARGB Lighting Fans, and Tempered Glass
Cooler Master MasterCase H500 ARGB Airflow ATX Mid-Tower with Mesh and Transparent Front Panel Option, Dual 200mm ARGB Lighting Fans, and Tempered Glass

Pros: Bought this case for my nephews first PC build. I had a great time assembling it and he learned all about 5S and honestly the case offered so many places to route cables it just looks clean. The lights are bright enough AND not annoying and after 1 year of service I am happy to report they all still work! The dust covers have truly done their job!!!!! 3-4 Dog house with PC on hardwood floor...came over to teach him how to clean his first PC and ....it didn't NEED IT!?!?

Cons: The carry handle is more just to position it, I wouldn't super trust it; its sturdy enough but it does flex ever-so-slightly. Other cases offer better choices for mobile PC gaming anyway, so not really a CON just an observation.

Overall Review: Great case, Sturdy, Fair Value, NOT A CHEAP CASE, Well planned out cable routes, Good Spacing, Final install left no visual cables from window view. Buy it...Love it. I plan to get another soon.

Most Critical Review

avoid at all costs

Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System
Seagate STAM2000100 2TB GoFlex Home Network Storage System

Pros: none at all.

Cons: hardest to configure of any NAS I have seen or used, usually fails to detect the drive until I restart it physically. I have a hard time trusting this NAS to do anything but fail completely at imitating a working NAS solution. This product made me question if sea-gate actually cares about data and customers or if its just in to make a quick buck... I could make a better NAS with spare HDD's or PC laying around the office... I know they can actually be used for something....

Overall Review: bad seagate very bad seagate... in a business when your products have to speak for themselves you just sold me the worst NAS I have ever used...it's bad and YOU should feel ashamed to release a product of this pathetic quality. Back to building my own stuff for awhile.

I plan to get another soon. **Update- I bought another and it also was perfect, lights are still working after a year in my nephews case and mine are flawless as well. I really enjoyed putting this together. cleaning is a little pain for the front case fans but I have never found a case that doesn't have this issue a little. I have and can live with it.

Best keyboard I have ever owned

Corsair K95 RGB PLATINUM Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Cherry MX Speed, Backlit RGB LED, Gunmetal
Corsair K95 RGB PLATINUM Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Cherry MX Speed, Backlit RGB LED, Gunmetal

Pros: Pretty and functional Keys are a little spongy in my opinion never used the cherry reds before but the tactile feel is good! So its not a con just an observation I am used to mechanical keyboards feels solid with the aluminum frame and ...did I mention its pretty???

Cons: I wish the volume was a dial or perhaps had some better feed back like a mouse scroll wheel its hard to tell how much I am moving it....a small problem but it has an OSD that tells you volume level in most cases. It has occasionally lost connection and fails to light up or be detected by my PC (very rare in the last 6 months maybe 3 times) just unplug/replug the USB and its back so not a big deal just kind of strange. Software could be better overall and lost 1 egg for my frustrations but once you get it going its works, just a little cumbersome.

Overall Review: I think Corsair has a fine product here and I would certainly buy this again or even a more expensive model if this one keeps going for years...time will only tell but I am confident it can last many years.

REALLY BAD SOFTWARE...WELL KNOWN AS AN INDUSTY JOKE

MSI GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card RTX 2070 Super GAMING X
MSI GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card RTX 2070 Super GAMING X

Pros: MEH... The Physical Card seems to perform just OK, not as good as I expected for the price I paid. Next time I will probably go budget as the cutting edge doesn't really offer any advantages or measurable gains for what it is these days.

Cons: The Joke continues for MSI software MSI tools (all 52 BILLION of them with cool names like DRAGON CENTRE AND CFORSPEEDTOOL, MSI AFTERBURNER!!!!!!! ) are all total trash... a laughing stock. A joke would be too kind In-fact the software is so bad I will not be buying another MSI product for a LONG LONG LONG TIME, maybe ever...

Overall Review: Industry Trend Incoming: Every other GPU manufacture can make 1 tool and 1 driver and they work just fine.... MSI make decent hardware but they easily make the worst product because the software is so bad... THE WRITING IS ON THE WALL THOUGH Now you can just buy Hardware from NVIDIA directly and not deal with bad hardware or bad software so companies like MSI will go out of business in the next 10-20 years. If only they tried just a little....starting with the drivers. Well too bad.

Alienware 34 is where its at!

Dell Alienware AW3418DW 34" (Actual size 34.14") 1900R WQHD 3440 x 1440 120Hz Overclocked NVIDIA G-SYNC HDMI DisplayPort 4xUSB 3.0 IPS LED Backlit Curved Gaming Monitor
Dell Alienware AW3418DW 34" (Actual size 34.14") 1900R WQHD 3440 x 1440 120Hz Overclocked NVIDIA G-SYNC HDMI DisplayPort 4xUSB 3.0 IPS LED Backlit Curved Gaming Monitor

Pros: I have zero pixel issues, screen is bright, clean and clear image. (I haven't pushed it to 120hrz yet but its already a MASSIVE improvement over my old 19inch Dell 60Hrz.) If like me you have an old 19 Dell monitor that's from 2008. This Upgrade will annihilate your understanding...you have missed SOO MUCH!!! BUY THIS or WAIT for the 200HRZ if you got money for the cards to push it... I think this is the sweet spot for now. Price/Performance/Visual Improvement over older displays.

Cons: I am a little worried about longevity but that's why I went Dell. They (Alienware Division) have very good QA standards. I just have never owned a IPS panel before...but if its as good as my Old dell its replacing 13years of heavy daily use...only 4 dead pixels that you must hunt to find...Its still working great as my second monitor...!!! Then this thing should hold up just fine for years no problems. 144Hrz would be great but really at this point who has the hardware to push that resolution at decent FPS? Only a few... I would prefer butter smooth FPS range and even at 60Hrz the pixel count makes this thing look amazing. Once my new GPU gets in I will update this with 120Hrz review. Currently running on a AMD HD6850 (Yes it has a DP port!) and even with this outdated/under-powered GPU the AW3418DW is such an improvement!!!

Overall Review: The lighting control software has to be ON to get the color change features... kind of a pain it seems to not save my pref. so I have to always go in and turn it ON then update the visuals every time I want to see the colors change in a pattern. This part should be better but its not worth a -1 egg its just inconvenient. For games it's a visual EXPERIENCE...its wow factor! EXAMPLE: I was playing Sins of a Solar Empire and noticed Because of the screen curve I can now see using depth-perception. Everything pop's out and it gives a superior visual representation of field of view...Its VERY HARD TO EXPLAIN but when you notice like I did... My jaw dropped and I said "I have never been able to notice that detail in this game before....150Hrs. played"

Arrived on time and before all my other sameday orders

No complaints, my order arrived before any of my other orders (from Newegg & other affiliate sellers) and within the advertised window for delivery. Package was in good condition. I would choose this seller again if given an option between them and an unknown seller.
