Most Favorable Review

Big

Intel Intel Beanie
Intel Intel Beanie

Pros: It's warm. Also it's free, so meh!

Cons: It's too big, and I don't like skulls...

Overall Review: Free things are always nice.

Most Critical Review

I thought better

Cooler Master Hyper TX3 - CPU Cooler with 3 Direct Contact Heatpipes
Cooler Master Hyper TX3 - CPU Cooler with 3 Direct Contact Heatpipes

Pros: Those are cooling better than the stock fan of Intel. That's for sure and it's worth it.

Cons: This particular kind of cooler makes me sick, why do we have to get those plastic pins to attach it? Unless you are VERY cautious, you will bend one of them...

Overall Review: I've bought this because I had already bought an other Cooler Master CPU Cooler and had a VERY good experience with it.

Weird case

Thermaltake Core P5 ATX Open Frame Panoramic Viewing Tt LCS Certified Gaming Computer Case CA-1E7-00M1WN-00
Thermaltake Core P5 ATX Open Frame Panoramic Viewing Tt LCS Certified Gaming Computer Case CA-1E7-00M1WN-00

Pros: Fits my needs for open case Looks unusual Fits my super large 360 rad

Cons: Where should I be putting my pump?! I ended up fitting it with zip ties due to port placement on my pump with the custom top I bought long before this case.

Overall Review: I think since I bought this case, they replaced the plexi with actual glass. That would definitely look better.

Sharp 24'' Monitor

Pros: First IPS monitor (bought 2) so these looks pretty awesome to me

Cons: I had to return a monitor because it developped a green line in the middle. Luckily I was still under Newegg's 30 day return period so I could get a new monitor quickly enough.

DDR4. 3000 MHz.

Pros: They do their job Looks better than I had expected

Cons: None

Overall Review: Make sure you set your XMP profile in the bios!

You get what you pay for

Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5 ATX Mid-Tower w/ Front DarkMirror Panel, 3 Customize Color Trims, & Transparent Acrylic Side Panel
Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5 ATX Mid-Tower w/ Front DarkMirror Panel, 3 Customize Color Trims, & Transparent Acrylic Side Panel

Pros: Looks kind of good from afar

Cons: Heavy plastic look when you get closer The front "window" is so dark that the LEDs of my fan can't really shine through

Overall Review: I use this PC as a "backup" for old pieces, so I just got the cheapest that did look a bit good. This one works. But for anyone concidering this as their main PC... rethink this please.
