Most Favorable Review

Great for what you pay for

XFX Radeon HD 5450 512MB DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 Low Profile Ready Graphics Card HD-545X-YRH2
XFX Radeon HD 5450 512MB DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 Low Profile Ready Graphics Card HD-545X-YRH2

Pros: great price, performs most modern games (Fallout 3/NV, RE5, Assassin's Creed) at a consistent 25-35 fps, stays below 45 degrees C at full load. A card not meant for gaming, yet modern games are certainly playable on it at low-medium quality and resolution.

Cons: for some reason ati overdrive isn't available with this card, even after many catalyst updates...i owned a 5450 from another brand and ran it with overdrive (playing many modern games at medium to high quality), but quickly returned it after discovering this one was about 40 bucks cheaper. Not sure if XFX is at fault, but this card still does what i need it to do on my low budget

Overall Review: unbeatable price for the performance, but would not recommend to someone with a large budget and high expectations of their product

Most Critical Review

Poor quality and design

VIZIO High Performance Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headphones w/ 6 Hour Battery, 3.5m Cable & Microphone
VIZIO High Performance Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headphones w/ 6 Hour Battery, 3.5m Cable & Microphone

Pros: The sound quality is alright over a wired connection, but not nearly good enough to be worth 150 bucks.

Cons: Bluetooth function simply does not work. I have other devices paired to my desktop with absolutely no issues, but these headphones are stubborn. The longest I've been able to connect them for is about five seconds, and then the Bluetooth manager gives me an error and disconnects the headphones. Also, the shape of the band makes them beyond awkward to wear on my head.

Overall Review: The forty dollars i paid for these is an alright price for the sound quality. Would've been a better deal if they were comfortable and the Bluetooth function actually worked. I would gladly return these for a refund if I didn't have to pay shipping costs -- a credible company like Vizio should really step it up with their customer support.
