Pros: Great keyboard, if not super durable. I just bought my second one in 3 years since I loved the first one so much. Sadly, hair and other junk can get under the keys and mess them up. I mostly got this cause I love the scissor switch keys, the auto illumination and Logitech software

Cons: Junk can get under the keys and mess them up. Scissor switch keys mean it is very hard to take apart to clean without breaking. Whatever, I still love it

Pros: - Tons of inputs - DVI connection looks amazing - Optical output makes switching sound AND video a one-step process - Remote is a welcome change for switching inputs, rather than using on-monitor buttons - Grows on you if you give it a chance - Component and HDMI look fairly good with some careful tweaking, though still inferior to DVI

Cons: - HDMI connection isn't what it should have been - All inputs besides DVI require careful tweaking to make them look any good - Even after tweaking, HDMI is still very sub-par

Overall Review: Sorry for the double review. After my initial outrage I decided to give this monitor another chance, and it's actually not as bad as I thought. It's still a let-down with it's inferior HDMI connection, but after some heavy tweaking, you can make the HDMI passable and eventually get used to how it looks. A few other things, such as the optical output and myriad of video inputs warrant at least a few eggs. To sum up: If you're not an HD aficionado, this monitor may end up being a gift from the heavens, but if you're a tech-head that notices every little detail, I'd steer clear and wait for something better. Remember: Research is you're greatest ally in the hunt for a good monitor.

Pros: Crushes everything you can throw at it with room to spare. My CPU isn't going to be the bottleneck for a loooong time.

Cons: Box looks like a hygiene product (not really a con but this is funny)

Pros: Has shiny stuff on it?

Cons: Didn't work on my desktop pc with an adapter (driver issues? not sure but it wouldn't connect to bluetooth devices or my wireless ac) Didn't work in my wifes laptop (to be fair, this was Lenovo's fault for disabling compatibility)

Overall Review: Probably awesome if your system supports it. None of mine did so now it's sitting in a box.

Pros: 144hz is very smooth in games that support it... of which there are very few 144hz desktop experience is neat. everything moves and re-sizes so cleanly Seems solidly built. Stand and adjustments are great.

Cons: Colors: they suck. After calibration (custom color profile and some osd menu tweaking) they are better, but still not good. Contrast: yuck. Calibration does little to help this. everything always seems to bright or too dark, too washed out or too muddy. 1080p resolution: yes a i know it's a budget 144hz, but if you're on a budget you probably wont be pushing over 60 fps anyway.

Overall Review: 144hz gaming is amazing... for a few hours. If you are on the fence choosing between this and, say, a 1440p or an IPS, ditch this monitor and go for the higher resolution or better colors instead. My other monitor is a 1440p IPS by LG and it is superior in every possible way (except the 144hz thing).

Pros: High wattage per channel, remembers your settings, decent RPM readouts, nice looking, compact size makes it easy to fit in tight spaces.

Cons: Touch-based interface is novel, but a pain. Temp sensors suck. Not well suited for high-powered fans, despite it's ability to run them (see other thoughts). Automatic fan control is flawed in its design.

Overall Review: I purchased this to primarily run four Delta 1212GHE fans, the 250 CFM jet engine beasts. I wanted to be able to have the fans run at low power while idling or doing simple things, and have them crank up automatically when I got into some serious computing. While it CAN power the fans just fine, it isn't well suited to do so. The main issue is that with the fans set at 40% or below (the point at which they are no longer jet-turbine loud), they won't start. This means that every time I start my computer, I have to go to each fans setting, boost it over 50%, then turn it back down to 40%. Fine-tuning the fan speed is a pain, since it's touch controlled. It takes several tries for each channel to get it back down to 40% instead of skipping right down to 30% or back up to 50%. The automatic option isn't very well designed, as it runs at only two speeds: the speed you set manually, and 100%. This means that as your PC hits the temperature mark you set, the fans will boost up to full blast. Since this will then cool the PC and lower the temp, they will then go back down again almost right away. So the fans will go high / low / high / low / high / low over and over again about every two seconds. As you can imagine this gets old VERY quickly. If you're running high-power fans and want them automatically controlled, I highly recommend instead getting some PWM fans and a PWM splitter with a PSU connection. This seems to work perfectly. If you're running regular, relatively quiet fans, this controller would probably be just fine. It does look nice and has plenty of outputs.
