Pros: Has great range. Have it on a computer in another room and can still interact with my computer without any problems. This unit is a plug and play for most desktops including XP64 and vista64. The software that comes with it is not needed, but if you would like to take full advantage of this adaptor, it's good to have or do like some others have and use alternate controller programs. Vista uses a basic OBX program you can also down load it from the internet. I also live in an appartment complex and have had no problem with interferance or drops which is a plus for this unit!

Cons: Not really a con about the linksys adaptor, just a warning. I've tried this on all my desktops which include. Ubuntu 8.04, XP32 pro, XP64 pro, Vista 32 Ultimate, Vista 64 Ultimate, Vista 32 Home+. The only problem I have had with two of my OS setups is the Anti virus software. This was XP32 pro, and Vista 32 Home, both have norton. Both block some of the linksys adaptors communications, BUT I have (again both XP32 and Vista32 Home) two others OS's with Norton that work flawlessly on all test. You may have to tweak your anti-virus or reinstall your anit-virus all together. Some of the others have Kaspersky and microsoft OneCare which did not interfere at all.

Overall Review: I purchased this for the purpose of controlling itunes on my computers remotely by the us of my iphone. It has great range and goes threw at least one wall. The connection has never dropped. It has worked on all the OS desktops listed above for this purpose, except of course the two I mentioned. I would buy this unit again!

Pros: - support for 220W processors - can handle BOTH AMD crossfire and Nvidia SLI multi GPU configurations - good spacing of GPU slots for healthy air flow - Killer NIC to maximize data flow - easy to navigate Bios w/ overclock Genie (one button overclocking) - Audio EMI Shielding w/ backlighting (helps keep down any potential for cross chatter or interference) - Creative Sound Blaster, so you can hear them sneaking up from behind you! Over all great looking board and a good price point for your return. Aggressive heat spreaders to keep things cool, especially under load. Good memory support, finally settled on corsair platinum 2133, don't forget to enable overclocking in bios! -- I have used MSI boards and products in the past and have had very good luck with them all, both motherboards and GPUs: 7 boards in total over the last 4 years and I'm still using 4 of them, not including this one. I have retired the other 2 by way of giving them to friend that can use them. As of this typing all are working and have had no issues.

Cons: -- One really bad con that sticks out, but is not a deal breaker for me. The fact that the USB3 connection on the motherboard conflicts with the second GPU, even a short GPU would partially obstruct the USB2, and 3 headers. I have the USB3 header plugged in, but the second GPU that I have installed is putting pressure on it. I'm sure in the long term can't be good for the pins. It is bent at about a 30 degree angle, not enough to break contact, but again the stress on the pins is apparent. SUGGESTION for MSI, put the USB3 header at the front of the board, the side with the SATA connections like most other board manufactures do. -- ANOTHER con, and again not a big deal breaker, just very disappointed. This board DOES support my FX9590 at it's rated stock clock and turbo, BUT that is it. It will not give you a stable overclock. I was able to post and run for a short time at 5.1GHZ, but the computer froze up once I started to load test for stability. My temp at the 5.1 was steady 42c, which if you know your AMD is pretty cool. For comparison I also have a 6800k, 7879k, and 7890k, that all run @ 56 to 60 and kick up to the mid to high 70's under load. I do have all water cooled, but the 9590 has a much bigger water cooler than the others. At idle right now the 9590 is running at 35c, so I have plenty of head room to push this chip further, but like others have reported the board itself still can't dissipate the heat from that added voltage well enough for this chip. It also states this in the BIOS for the 200W and above CPU. I did not know this and it wasn't stated in the spec sheet. BUT if you are running this board with a 8300 or lesser CPU you should have no problem reaching very good overclocks, water cooled that is.

Overall Review: I mainly use this computer build for editing, I do game on it, but thats when I'm to lazy to move to one of the others. :P There are not to many boards that can handle the demands of the 9370 or 9590. this one has done a very good job so far. I will in future do what others have suggested, which is to add a fan to the heat spreaders that are over the chokes. Almost everyone has reported good results with this technic. OVERALL I am very pleased with this board and I had no problem upgrading the board and CPU from the previous build. If you plan to upgrade, it's NO guarantee, but try and keep the CPU family and the board manufacture the same and it should take without windows giving you a hard time about the change. You will have to install all the drivers for the new hardware. Build with this board: FX 9590 stock clock speed with turbo and water cooled MSI 990FXA-Gaming Corsair Dominator Platinum 32GB kit @ 2133 Two GTX 980ti's (yes I know!! overkill....) SLI engaged SSD Samsung 256 pro OS 2 x SSD SK Hynix 500GB one for gaming and the other for Media projects WD black 3TB storage RM 1000x 80 plus gold

Pros: Great sound quality, good value for quality, anti tangle, fits well in my ear, I'm using the smaller ear buds. ,nice storage pouch, assortment of ear bud sizes. Long cord. Takes average daily punishment. Look great.

Cons: They tend to need adjustments, so as not to fall out of my ear, from time to time. No, "on ear hooks", to hold them in place if you are wearing them during heavy activities. I have tried, but they keep falling out, or need to be adjusted. They don't have the specs posted on their web site. I would like to know that the d b, impedance, and what the exact frequency response is.

Overall Review: These are truly a great value for the money, especially if you get them during a sale. I have had these for over two months now and have used them on a daily basis. I have used them while working, during heavy activities...e.g. working out or house and outdoor activities. I have even used them while sleeping. They have withstood my pulling on them or tugging by accident, my sweat, and rain. They are tough, or I have been really lucky, or both. =) The sound quality is amazing for an ear bud. NOT to be confused with over ear head phones! Clean bass, clear mid and highs. Out of all the other ear buds I have used and have now, these have been one of the best. I have the high end Bose ear buds, $$299.00 TDK's ear buds, almost as expensive JVC ear buds, and the SL99's sound the best all around. Each one of the others does a great job, BUT they don't reproduce the over all sound, 20hz to 20khz, as evenly throughout. These reproduce the bass smooth and evenly, were as the Bose is heavy deep bass with very little high end reproduction, much like their home speakers, (which I also have). The TDK's sound amazing, but they lack the bass that the SL99's reproduce. The JVC sound and feel great as well but don't have that mid or bass that the SL99's do. The SL99's reproduce smooth accurate clear highs, much like the JVC's. I have spent hours listen to the difference using sound testing music which I have used to set up home theater and car audio systems,(I use to install them),to see which one sounds the best and overall the SL99's sound the best. And just a friendly warning the highs are reproduced accurately enough to damage your ears if you are listen at to high volume level.

Pros: Purchased two of these for a new build. I have them set up to support one 840 pro 256 SSD which is running the OS and a few major programs. - SATAIII, 64MB cache, 7200RPM. - Runs cool, low noise, - I cannot hear them above the quiet sound of my fan set up. - Single plater. - awesome read/ writes for a mechanical drive running at 7200 RPM - Its a Western digital - great price point

Cons: - would like a more than 2 year warranty

Overall Review: I was very impressed with the access times in raid 0 configuration. Cystal Disk benchmark: In raid 0, 1863GB usable space after format. USING (Very important people!!) MSI motherboard that is SATAIII! SATAII and SATA1.5 will NOT get you these numbers.

Pros: Size, small, easy to store

Cons: Price is not value added, proprietary format

Overall Review: If they had a bigger size, I would have purchased it. I came from a 16GB that was almost completely filled. To this and it's almost completely filled. =)

Pros: Size is small and compact. Great price/Value. Creative design integrates well with PSvita. Aux input for use with other devices, such as ipod, iphone, or any other devices. For its size this little speaker easily fills up a small room with sound. I couldn't find the speaker spec, but it has great highs and lows for it's compact size. The reproduction is excellent. If your playing a good high quality recorded music or sound, this little speaker really does a great job. For the price, it is well worth it.

Cons: Doesn't come with any cables or adaptors, but I wasn't expecting it to. Not at that price point. It uses the PSvita's charger for power. It doesn't come with it's own power supply. It does such a great job filling a room with sound that my wife gets mad at me and tell me to turn that, "stuff" off. The blue power light is bright and I'm sure will bother some people. I'm fine with it.

Overall Review: I was looking at just cradles and I ran across this little jem. I'm really happy with the purchase decision. It's no bose, but for the price it does an amazing job. I am completely floored my the sound quality and volume.
