Most Favorable Review

great board!

ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 + SB 950 USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 + SB 950 USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

Pros: Easy to install, connecters are well positioned, well written manual to go along with it. The GUI bios screen is interesting, but nice for a novice, you can also go to an advanced screen, where everything is laid out in a more traditional manner

Cons: Only has one USB 3.0 header, would have been nice to have two.

Most Critical Review

Unless you're in an urban area, don't waste your money

TaoTronics TT-OA01-03 Outdoor Amplified VHF/UHF HDTV Antenna with 360° Rotation, Remote Control, Low-Noise Amplifier, Dual TV Outputs, & 100-Mile Reception Range
TaoTronics TT-OA01-03 Outdoor Amplified VHF/UHF HDTV Antenna with 360° Rotation, Remote Control, Low-Noise Amplifier, Dual TV Outputs, & 100-Mile Reception Range

Pros: Easily assembled, easily set up

Cons: 100 mi my eye.....our tv stations are 45 mi as the crow flies, all on the same mountain, & antenna wont pick up half of em....My old, broken antenna does much better. rotator works, but randomly....when you push a button (doesn't matter which one), it may turn one way, may turn the other. Also, since it has no directional indicator, it either takes two people, or a whole lot of guessing to get it pointed the right way.

Overall Review: I'd send it back, but return shipping would be almost as much as what the thing cost, so I guess I'll chalk this one up as 'lesson learned'

Absolute garbage, do not buy!

Inland NexHT Security Camera 1080p Full Wireless IP Surveillance System with Zoom, Night Vision, Two-Way Audio, Cloud Storage, Motion Alerts

Pros: NOTHING!

Cons: Bought 2 of these, both of them absolutely refused to connect, spent hours with them to no avail! I know, you're thinking "This guy is just too stupid to hook them up"....I have been building and repairing computers for 30+ years, IT admintrator for a public library for 10 years. These things are a waste of time & money.

Overall Review: I would not reccomend these to anybody, for anything. They're too light to even be used as fishing weights. The manufacturer KNOWs these are garbage, contacted them about return, got back "ineligible for return"

It works

Powered 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub, ORICO USB Data Hub with 12V Power Adapter, Multi USB 3.0 Splitter with 3.3 Ft Long USB Cable for PC, Laptop, Keyboard, Mouse, HDDs and More-Black

Pros: What can I say, it just works & works well

Cons: Doesn't make the morning coffee for me, mow the lawn, etc, but it does make a good USB 3 hub

So far, so good.

WL 4TB 7200RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s (Enterprise Grade) 3.5" Hard Drive (For Server, RAID, NAS, DVR, Desktop PC) w/1 Year Warranty

Pros: inexpensive, seem to be decent quality

Cons: one of the two drives I purchased had a couple of bad sectors, which in & of itself is not too unusual, but will bear watching -1 egg for the bad sectors.

Overall Review: Seem to be decent drives, & have them installed in a Synology DS216j NAS, only had them about a month, but seem to be working very well

Shoulda made this jump much earlier

CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CW-9060007-WW) High Performance Water / Liquid CPU Cooler. 120mm
CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CW-9060007-WW) High Performance Water / Liquid CPU Cooler. 120mm

Pros: Easy install (15 min), super quiet, & it WORKS!!! FX-8350 Vishara running in an ASUS M5A97 R2 mb, 8 GB Wintek DDR3, using stock cooler temps were 41~45C° at idle, was going into heat shutdown when doing heavy video encoding...with H60 cooler, idle temp is 23~24C°, encoding video with all 8 cores running 100% with a mild OC, max temp is now 54C° after an hours steady encoding. I couldn't be more pleased with this item

Cons: Doesn't come with automatic 100 dollar bill dispenser...lol At this point I don't see a downside to this item. I wish I were so fortunate in all my purchases...

Overall Review: The day after I bought this, the price went up 20 bucks ( landed on the right side of that one for once...lol), but even then, I feel it is worth every penny.....I am RARELY this impressed with any product, 5 gold eggs for sure!
