Pros: Bought these for girlfriend that loves music but never had any decent audio. She had been listening to laptop squeekers for a long time. I got her a quality bluetooth dongle for the laptop and a good bluetooth audio receiver to go with the speakers for her Birthday. Everything popped right up with no hassles or issues. Sound was superb, at all listening levels, and it really filled the room. Needless to say, all this went over VERY well. She now not only listens to music, but can actually enjoy it.

Cons: A few months later, that relationship didn't work out. I really, really miss those speakers :'( (I can't blame Corsair or Newegg for that, so I won't subtract an egg.)

Overall Review: I plan to get another set very soon, and I'll not be giving them away like an idiot this time.

Pros: Seems like a solid enough case, and the size/price is very competitive with the market standard.

Cons: Purge vale is not one-way or automatic (you have to unscrew it a bit) Latches are not very tight.

Pros: Slid in and fired right up in an Asrock FM2A88X Extreme6+ board (which it matches perfectly in black and gold). No goats were sacrificed to have it detect at rated 1600 as the BIOS pegged it automatically and defaulted to dual channel. Reasonably low profile so it doesn't interfere with liquid cooling tubes from CPU. Heat spreader is very thin metal (also a Con) Preliminary benchmarking and stress-testing showing good results and no stability issues. 16G in dual channel mode and correct timing boosted WE scores a few tenths over a single 8G stick of Corsair Dominator platinum for a solid little upper mid-level rig.

Cons: No glaring cons to speak of as yet. Heat spreader is very thin metal (also a pro)

Overall Review: The very thin heat spreaders may not be as efficient as some others, especially in a rig without a massive CPU fan blowing right next to them, although it does leave a bit more room for air to circulate between the DIMMS. If both DIMMS hold up well for a couple months I will likely get another set to round out at 32G on this platform.

Pros: Strong and durable. Unbeatable price point.

Cons: Heavy & bulky and not very pretty. Keep oil in the reservoir.

Overall Review: These are available through several distributors/importers but this is lowest price I have seen. I am with a very large Telecom construction company and we were having a lot of work-site injuries aside from too much wasted time & energy trying to drive 8' ground rods. After searching for a solution and purchasing a name brand hammer drill we found these and decided to give them a try. Absolutely the best purchases we made as they will drive circles around the Bosch that cost several times more. After wasting a lot of time trying to fabricate a bit adapter for the pricey one that would soon fail every time, we took one of the bits off this unit to a machine shop and for about $20 had it modified to fit over a 5/8 ground rod plus some extra slack, with plenty of metal left over and have had zero failure. Ended up buying three of these units and put them in everyday service with hard-core construction crews that literally can tear up anything you give them. After driving rods by hand for a while, they took better care of these and all of the units are still working to this day. At prevailing wages, these have paid for themselves in the first couple of days, and all together were a tiny fraction of what just one ER visit & comp claim. We have not had a single ground rod related injury since we put them in the field. We are all believers. Disclaimer - Use at your own risk and always always always know what's below. Call before you dig & have the utilities located. Its the Law.

Pros: The fit and finish on the hardware is good, as is the overall layout with few exceptions. No trouble removing the cpu backplate to install water cooling. No problems with POST on first attempt & found everything fine.

Cons: The bottom two usb 3.0 ports on the backplane won't install and are therefore non-functional. (Windows sees as usb hub but can't find any drivers on disk or from internet) Remains to be seen if the heatsinks for the NB & SB will be adequate under load, but gut says if they are it will be only barely so. Supplied utilities/drivers software is mediocre and the auto-updater practically useless. Had to update all that directly from Asrock site. OTOH the motherboard did immediately make use of the LAN port and flashed the bios from the internet before Windows was even installed. The 4-pin Molex connector on the mobo for gfx cards is an odd/bad choice and is in a most unfavorable position for a clean cabling job. Count on buying an extension cable thats at least 15 - 20 + inches long to route around the case to reach the typical daisy-chained psu leads. The Windows Experience rating on this platform (not the motherboard's fault) will be relatively low if using only the on-chip AMD graphics that are currently available. Scores for every other parameter are hitting 7.6 - 7.9 stock, but the graphics bring the total down to a 4.4 on my initial configuration. (Discreet gfx card should easily bring that up to a very respectable overall.) Consider using bios to dedicate more of the system RAM to the graphics than the default setting.

Overall Review: Generally, I am pleased enough with the platform and the hardware, with the notable exception of the two skizzed-out usb 3.0 ports mentioned above. Am hoping there is or will soon be a fix/workaround for that. Other than that issue, it has mostly met expectations.

Pros: Unboxed and have been playing with most of the evening. Very snappy. Connected right up to wi-fi, bluetooth and all the things I wanted it to on my network & such without any problems. Nice screen and nice sound for a tablet this size. Stylus works well and it runs the Mobile CAD programs I need for work easily. Games I have checked out play smoothly and look great. Comfortable to hold, for me. Came fully charged.

Cons: Someday, there will be a better one available.... Not really any fitted, (or ruggedized) aftermarket cases etc out yet for it. Wish it was Gorilla Glass... Not rated for 64G SDHC. It's usb 2.0

Overall Review: Newegg Rocks, of course. Kudos for the shipping upgrade on the first batch of pre-orders. Nice job on this from evga and nvidia.
