Most Favorable Review

Great for the money

ASUS Desktop Computer G11CD-US51 Intel Core i5-6400 8GB DDR4 1TB HDD NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 Windows 10 Home
ASUS Desktop Computer G11CD-US51 Intel Core i5-6400 8GB DDR4 1TB HDD NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 Windows 10 Home

Pros: I unboxed this PC, went through setup, updated windows and I was up and running. I got this for my son because he was tired of gaming on a laptop. He is pleased with the graphics and plays his games on high to max settings. I usually build all our computers, but he needed one fast and for the money, I couldn't touch this build. The internals are fully upgradable. The best piece in this PC is the graphics (GTX 970 4gb) which is an actual video card, not a cheap onboard solution.

Cons: To be an ASUS product, I expected a matched pair for the RAM. It comes with a single stick of budget RAM (8gb). Not a huge complaint, but it will run better when we upgrade the memory.

Spoke too soon..follow-up

Samsung UN40EH5300 40" 1080p LED Full HDTV Smart TV Built in WiFI
Samsung UN40EH5300 40" 1080p LED Full HDTV Smart TV Built in WiFI

Pros: None

Cons: Apparently there is a capacitor issue with the power supply. This should have been caught by Samsung while checking the TV. Its on its way back for RMA. Very disappointed. I hope my replacement is a better story.

Overall Review: Newegg is the best! They are still taking care of my issue with no questions asked.

Very impressive

AUKEY Black EP-T27 Wireless Earbuds with aptX Deep Bass, CVC 8.0 Noise Reduction Technology, Bluetooth 5.0, IPX7 Waterproof, USB Type C Quick Charging Case Earphones for iPhone and Android
AUKEY Black EP-T27 Wireless Earbuds with aptX Deep Bass, CVC 8.0 Noise Reduction Technology, Bluetooth 5.0, IPX7 Waterproof, USB Type C Quick Charging Case Earphones for iPhone and Android

Pros: With the provided different ear cup sizes, I was able to find the perfect fit with these earbuds. I can't say that for other, much more expensive ones I have bought in the past. Pairing was easy once I realized there was protective film on the earbuds themselves (this keeps them from discharging in storage/shipping). They are very light and stay in my ears. Sound quality is pretty good for such inexpensive buds.

Cons: I honestly haven't found any true cons yet. I bought these for mowing the lawn and working outside as they are "waterproof." I haven't tested them in a wet environment yet.

Overall Review: If you need a VERY inexpensive option, be it for getting dirty, sweaty or even young children (getting some for the grands for Christmas..shhhh), don't hesitate to grab these. Not perfect, but very good all things considered.

perfect for my needs

Silverstone GD11 Ideal compact HTPC case with 240mm radiator support
Silverstone GD11 Ideal compact HTPC case with 240mm radiator support

Pros: This case is quite spacious despite its smaller size. Its not tiny, but has good airflow and my 3080 FTW ;fit with no problems.

Cons: The included fans are nice, but for a quality HTPC/gaming computer, I would go with premium fans. i used the grey 120 x2 and 80 x2. Not sure if I can list the brand, but they make the brown ones too ;)

Overall Review: Looks great, and fits well in my TV cabinet. It stays reasonably cool and the near silent fans don't ramp like crazy.

1 out of 2 is terrible

Phanteks SK120 PWM FAN - 120mm Fan, High Airflow Nine-blade Design, Rubber Dampening Washers - Black
Phanteks SK120 PWM FAN - 120mm Fan, High Airflow Nine-blade Design, Rubber Dampening Washers - Black

Pros: quiet, nice air flow for a cheap fan

Cons: 1 of 2 ordered did run properly. The failed fan, when it would actually spin, had a grinding, bumping sound (in, or out of the case for those wondering if the blades caught on something). Phanteks high end products are amazing. The QC on this budget fan is terrible!

Overall Review: QC needs serious improvement. I can't recommend this product based on my personal 50% failure rate. I'll stick to better quality, more established brands when it comes to less expensive fans. The only reason it got 2 stars is for the fan that worked.

Amazing step up!

PowerColor Red Devil AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT Gaming Graphics Card with 16GB GDDR6 Memory, Powered by AMD RDNA 2, Raytracing, PCI Express 4.0, HDMI 2.1, AMD Infinity Cache, AXRX 6900XT 16GBD6-3DHE/OC
PowerColor Red Devil AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT Gaming Graphics Card with 16GB GDDR6 Memory, Powered by AMD RDNA 2, Raytracing, PCI Express 4.0, HDMI 2.1, AMD Infinity Cache, AXRX 6900XT 16GBD6-3DHE/OC

Pros: Beautiful aesthetics, easily controlled rgb backplate logo and end cap, red led ports at the rear of the card for easy location in a dark setup, massive cooler and quiet fans. This card got me huge bumps in fps in the titles I play, Doom Eternal (yes, I know...potato game, but I play it), Alyx, Wolfenstein II, Tomb Raider series, and many more. I have been impressed with the ray tracing even though this is AMD's first crack at it.

Cons: This card is HUGE!!! I had my previous setup fully water cooled. However, I wanted to keep the air cooler on this card a while as it really is a great looking card. My current case is the Phanteks Evolv X with dual 360 radiators, EK pump/res combo mounted to the front radiator fans. This won't fit in the top PC Ie slot by over an inch due to the pump/res. I have it installed in the bottom 16x slot for now, but fear its starving for air that close the PSU shroud. May look into a bigger case

Overall Review: I wouldn't change a thing about this card, not even the size. I wish I could afford another one for my wife's computer.

Better than expected

I ordered five different items from five different Marketplace sellers on a Tuesday evening (after hours). The screen protectors I ordered from Tech Armor were the last to process and the last to reflect a shipping number. I chose the free or cheapest option for all my items so I didn't expect anything to be delivered the same week I ordered these items. I received the screen protectors on Friday of the same week, the day after the shipping info was posted on my order page. Good job Tech Armor!
