Good Burner

SAMSUNG CD/DVD Burner 22X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 16X DVD+R DL 22X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 24X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM Black SATA Model SH-222AB
SAMSUNG CD/DVD Burner 22X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 16X DVD+R DL 22X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 24X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM Black SATA Model SH-222AB

Pros: Burned 30+ DVD's in first 3 days with data verified. Bubble wrapped well. (see other comments) Average to low noise level when burning DVD's

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: OEM means only the DVD drive. Do not expect a SATA cable, screws or anything else. Power L tab broken but I think I did it. Even with it gone the power can only be plugged in the proper way with the SATA cable plugged in. Don't have much use for this drive now so it should easily last until BluRay Burners sell for under $25.00 ( I am guessing Black Friday 2012) then it will serve as a secondary drive.

Good Keyboard Mouse combo

Logitech Wireless Combo MK260 920-002950 Black 8 Hot Keys USB RF Wireless Standard Keyboard and Mouse
Logitech Wireless Combo MK260 920-002950 Black 8 Hot Keys USB RF Wireless Standard Keyboard and Mouse

Pros: Good range. Single dongle. Laged only 1 or 2 times

Cons: Most used letters on keys started wearing off. Battery usage.

Overall Review: The dongle sticks out. This I think gave the set a good range but I had the computer out and teenager brushed aginst computer and broke dongle. Mouse still worked but the keyboard died.

Good Wireless

TP-LINK TL-WN722N Wireless N150 High Gain USB Adapter, 150Mbps, w/4 dBi High Gain Detachable Antenna, IEEE 802.11b/g/n, WEP, WPA/WPA2
TP-LINK TL-WN722N Wireless N150 High Gain USB Adapter, 150Mbps, w/4 dBi High Gain Detachable Antenna, IEEE 802.11b/g/n, WEP, WPA/WPA2

Pros: This adapter has ran almost 24/7 the last 17 months without problems. Has good speed. Not much else to say.

Cons: Needs to have something that says if it is the problem or not. (I wish)

Overall Review: 3 times I thought is was the problem to my tiny network and each time I was wrong. Everything else failed, cable modem, ISP provider and router. None of these were TP-Link products.

Good Card

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 5450 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 Low Profile Graphics Card GV-R545SL-1GI
GIGABYTE Radeon HD 5450 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 Low Profile Graphics Card GV-R545SL-1GI

Pros: This little card has been run almost 24/7 for 6 months without a hitch. Low cost with rebate. It meets my needs (non gamer) A decent amount of time to submit the rebate so you have time to test it before destroying the box and naking it unreturnable to Newegg. Runs on Win XP 32 bit, 7 32 & 64 bit, Linux Mint 11 & 13 64 bit.

Cons: Little bit of a runaround for rebate but not bad. Have to turn off on-card audio when not using the HDMI.

Overall Review: I have a fan directed at the Northbridge that gets the video card as well and a case with good airflow so I can't say anything about heat issues. If you think your going to get a good gaming card for under $150 with rebates... Good Luck. I haven't had the time to test the HDMI yet so I can't comment on it. (Yes, six months later.)
