NIce tv for the the price
Pros: Very nice and bright TV it has a nice color and looks good in bright areas. and for the money i payed for it the contrast wasn't too bad.
Cons: only 60hz. :(. so it looks a little choppy on fast moving objects on screen. And i noticed it ran hotter than my plasma downstairs and i did a little research and Plasmas usually should run hotter than LCD s in this case it's the opposite. i don't not if it's me or the TV so i wold not take the heat topic into the discretion of buying this nice TV.
Overall Review: I would recommend a plasma TV for Watching sports. and regular shows and stuff but LCD for Gaming and using it as a computer monitor. The reason I recommend this is because Plasma can burn in if the image is the same for long periods of time
Great card when it works
Pros: The card is great i can run all games i have at it's highest settings with little stutter. AMD Control center works like a charm as per usual and is great for multimonitor setup
Cons: The card will crash constantly over the few months i have it and today i have just about had it when it crashed the whole OS. I have installed many versions of the driver and all have had the same issues over and over again it's obvious it's not the driver but the card it's self i just wish the card would run better more stable. I have never overclocked the card as it's barely stable running at stock settings i recommend the card but I would not choose Gigabyte to buy. the card is no out of my case and sitting in it's box as i have instaaled my old graphics cards 5770 crossfire back into my system
Overall Review: Iit's disapointing to have such a great card lemon on you in less than a year also i would skip the this card and go for the new R series card AMD has out now or go to Nvidia if you want something in the same price range. hopefully gigbyte customers service is not horrible as i am goign to try and use the service warranty and get a replacement
Great when it was working
Pros: The board is no thtat bad i bought it mostly becasu eit was the board that fit my case and had no issues what so ever in till...
Cons: One morning i boot up everything is fine and it just froze up. It right in the middle of running and bam it just stopped. I tested the power supply and it was fine, the CPU still works same with the ram. I the only thing i could figure is that the motherboard bit the dust and just stopped working.
Overall Review: I personally would say AVOID MSI AT ALL COST this would not be the first time i had one of there products die on me with a very short life span i only had it running for a month and a half when it died out. MSI has also did not respond to my calls or emails i have sen tthem over the past year
Eiodalin
Pros: The board is a solid piece of PCB board it has all the need's of a performance crazy person in compact package. It has the overclocking if needed, you can Raise and lower the FSB on a whim with the overclocking software along with the fan speed
Cons: The first board i got was DOA and i had to RMA it to Newegg it was no big hassle but for some reason the Serial sticker was removed when i got it. Also you can't adjust the Clock speed thought the software provided nor the multiplier and if your spu even get get to 60 Celsius it start chirping at you which is gets annoying fast.
The PSP IS a touchy system but will be worth the money soon
Pros: The PSP is on of the best handhelds in the world. It's graphics are sharp and detailed. the system is literally a handheld PS2.The system can be expanded even more by adding Custom firmware* to the PSP. By that I mean you can watch Youtube videos have a faster browser than the standard browser with the Official firmware , have Images of your old PS1 disk put on to the memory stick and be played. And coming soon to the PSP is LittleBigPlanet Grand Turismo, and many more and whats already here is GOW: Chains of Olympus, the Monster Hunter Series, Valhalla Knights 1 and 2 and many more triple A titles. Also you can put music videos and photos on to your memory stick.
Cons: The system has a very short Battery life. that can remedied a little by buying the larger battery from Sony to get 9-10 hours of play time instead of the regular 4-5. I would also like to note it does not have internal memory that you can save to. You can buy a Memory stick separately though, that can go up 16gb anything bigger than that and you'll have to format into smaller chunks if that is possible. they get expensive though the more memory you want Newegg only supports the 4gb sticks. If you want to buy a PSP expect to spend 80 to 100 dallars more for a memory stick and a couple of games. There is also a camera attach for the system but you would have to have shipped over seas because it was nto released in the U.S.
Overall Review: *Custom firmware voids your warranty on the console so wait till that warranty runs out. also the current PSP 3000 cannot support the Custom Firmware because of the console's internal configuration. only it can only be loaded to the psp 2000 and 1000 or Slim and Fat. Custom firmware IS LEGAL so don't think it isn't. It's the people that abuse it's abilities that make there activities illegal
One of the Plasmas I have ever bought
Pros: This Plasma TV is a outstanding TV. it has 3 HDMI ports which is great. The TV looks outstanding in 720p and almost, to me, looks like 1080i. the tv also looks out standing and 480p for people who don't have HD yet. And for the price it is a steal for the specs. also don't worry about burn in it has a setting so it does not. But don't say it is gaurenteed to not burn in. It is a risk with all Plasmas
Cons: you have to be about 5ft away to get a nice clear picture. For me it's not much of a problem as i have a nice size living room
Overall Review: My father bought this TV he was just too lazy to review so I'm doing it for him. I don't own it but i can my self drooling while watching it's amazing picture this is a must buy tv
