Another great TT eSports product

Tt eSPORTS MEKA G1 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Black KB-MEG005US
Tt eSPORTS MEKA G1 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Black KB-MEG005US

Pros: I've played with quite a few Mechanical Keyboards and switches. Browns, Reds, Blues... But this is my first time with Blacks, and well... I love them! - Likes: -Great weight on the Keyboard means it wont be sliding around while gaming. -Black switches cause you to push a little bit harder so you don't end up "fat fingering". -Not overly noisy like Blue switches. -White color is very attractive and doesn't get dirty like I thought it would. -Logo's are tasteful and not over done. Not to mention durable. -Windows key on left side replaced with a Function button for audio settings, very useful and easy to use with one hand. -Built in USB ports work flawlessly along with the 3.5mm jacks as well. Very convenient since my case does not have front ports. I now have a new place to put my flash drive without having to reach behind my computer. -LONG cable makes cable routing easy without fear of length issues.

Cons: - Dislikes: -Does not come with a removal key for cleaning the keyboard. -Price is a little higher than some of the competition. -Non-removable power cable for LAN travel makes it a little more difficult. -Despite liking the cable length, it is a little thick to make up for the USB and 3.5mm jacks.

Overall Review: - What would I change? A few issues I had with this keyboard are easily fixed. Include a removal key, it's a fifty cent tool that goes a long way with consumers. Could use a small price decrease, but it's not so much that it's not worth it, because this is a great keyboard. Remove that 3.5mm headphone/mic jack from the keyboard, would reduce thickness of the cable making a removable power cable easier to do. - Would you buy/ recommend it for a family member / friend? Absolutely, this is a great keyboard. The Pros HEAVILY outweigh the Cons and I can't think of a better mechanical keyboard I've used in a years. It doesn't have a bunch of unnecessary buttons that would be confusing to some. I thought macro buttons were the only way till I found out that I never really used them. Overall this is another great product from the Thermaltake eSports lineup. If you're looking for a keyboard in this price range, It's well worth it.

Most Critical Review

Great speakers for price, until they fail.

Genius SP-HF1800A 50 W 2.0 Three-way Hi-Fi Wood Speakers

Pros: Good not great sound, nice heavy construction, look great on your desk

Cons: Left speaker will fail you over time. I've had these for around 4 years and today it finally stopped working. Reading other reviews it looks like I got lucky that they even lasted this long. Save your money and spend 200-300 for a quality set of powered speakers, You'll thank me in the long run.

Great board

GIGABYTE GA-Z77N-WIFI LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI USB 3.0 Mini ITX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Great style, dual nic, built in wireless, price is good.

Cons: 4 phase power, locked voltage for OC. Might as well be getting the H77

Overall Review: I don't OC so it's not a big deal with the power for me. But I wouldn't recommend this board for someone looking for high overclocking potential, there are other boards out there for that around this price point with different features.

Great Product

Pros: Quiet, sleek looking, tons of airflow.

Cons: Expensive, only comes with silencing mounts, no screws. Did not work for my build I had to get screws.

Overall Review: If you want great quality fans and don't mind paying the price, get these.

Great for budget gaming

Intel Core i3-2100 - Core i3 2nd Gen Sandy Bridge Dual-Core 3.1 GHz LGA 1155 65W Intel HD Graphics 2000 Desktop Processor - BX80623I32100

Pros: This thing is great for a budget gaming machine. I put this in an itx build with a 60gb ssd, 8gb's ram, a 480, and it flies. I don't even notice the difference between this 650 dollar machine and my 1200 dollar i5 2500k 6950 build. stop thinking about it and buy this proc. It's awesome.

Cons: What con?

Overall Review: Buy this proc!
