It's a power adapter.

40 Watt AC Power Adapter Charger For Samsung Chromebook XE303C12 XE303C12-A01US XE303C12-H01US XE500C12, Smart PC 500T XE500T1C Tablet, Smart PC Pro 700T, XE700T1C Tablet

Pros: It adapts power.

Cons: I still haven't gotten laid.

Overall Review: I bought this thinking that it would provide electricity to my Samsung Chromebook. When it arrived in the mail and I tried it out, it actually did, and I wasn't surprised at all.

Pretty good

Pros: I bought this card for BF3, when it came out. Since then I've put it to use for tons of games in 2013, including BF4, and it hasn't disappointed. I can run most games on ultra or very high and it barely gets to 75 celsius. I never overclocked it, and it performed nicely.

Cons: none

Overall Review: I'm currently taking a big leap to the 780, I think it's just time to upgrade. The 580 served me well!

Pretty good

LG W2453V-PF Black 24" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Full HD 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 50000:1 w/ Smart Package
LG W2453V-PF Black 24" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Full HD 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 50000:1 w/ Smart Package

Pros: I've owned this since 2010, and still use it. 2ms response, 1920x1080, decent contrast, great color - about what I'm finding in 2013, though I'm about to upgrade to LED backlit. Love this monitor though.

Cons: The touch sensitive buttons aren't that great, though they are stylish - after the annoyance of using them, at least they're practically invisible. After about 1.5 years, the bottom right corner of the screen became darker than the rest. It's barely noticeable, and I never bothered to look into why, but something is certainly wrong/broken.

Still working

Pros: I've owned this drive since 2010, and it hasn't had any problems. Doesn't make any noise and hasn't shown any sign of slowing down, though I haven't run any actual tests on it. I plan on using it for a totally new computer I'm building, 3 years later.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: From what I've read, upgrading to a 64mb cache HDD wouldn't show much improvement unless I really put it to work, which on a gaming rig doesn't happen.

Pros: I've owned this power supply since 2010, upgraded my pc several times and am currently using it for a totally new computer I'm about to build. I bought it to last, and it has.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Fairly easy to clean.

Got the job done

Thermaltake Armor+MX VH8000BWS Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Thermaltake Armor+MX VH8000BWS Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Good size for a mid tower, I was able to fit a 580 in it, barely, but it held everything nicely. Looks kinda cool. Was fairly cheap, and good quality for the price.

Cons: I had an issue with the fans, as did a few others. The side fan somehow got out of line and needed to be replaced within 6 months. The rear fan died after about 1.5 years.

Overall Review: I know this case is discontinued, but having owned it for several years I feel I should write a review.
