Pros: Bright.

Cons: Only worked for a few months.

Nice for the price

Thermaltake Tt eSports Poseidon Z Illuminated Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Blue Switches
Thermaltake Tt eSports Poseidon Z Illuminated Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Blue Switches

Pros: Cheap Good quality Heavy

Cons: Lifespan

Overall Review: This keyboard lasted me for about 1 year and is no longer working properly. If I press a key such as 'e' it will input the letter 3 times with only one key press. This makes it hard to type long messages and affects moving with 'WASD' in games.

Outstanding for the price

EVGA GeForce GTX 960 02G-P4-2966-KR 2GB SSC GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card
EVGA GeForce GTX 960 02G-P4-2966-KR 2GB SSC GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling Graphics Card

Pros: Only $199 Sweet spot for 1080p gaming Runs cool Moderate power draw 2 fans Massive heatsink It's made by EVGA Looks sleek

Cons: -The 128 bit memory interface. It seems very stupid that nvidia put such a small bus on here. I assume it is so the 960 does not out preform for the price. -Huge in size about 10.5 inches long!

Overall Review: For $199 you really cannot go wrong. I upgraded form the GTX 650 Ti EVGA SSC 2GB Edition to this card. The performance difference is night and day. This card will run nearly every game on high or ultra with no problems. Don't let the 128 bit memory bus scare you. It's really not that bad if you game at 1080p or lower. Any resolution higher then that I would recommend you look for a different GPU. If you are a casual gamer that does not want to break the bank, get this GPU. MAKE SURE THAT THIS GPU WILL FIT IN YOUR CASE. IT IS VERY LARGE AND IS A REALLY TIGHT FIT IN A MID SIZE CASE.

Great backplate

Pros: Looks nice Easy to put on Helps disperse heat

Cons: Should come on the GPU from the factory for free.

Overall Review: I really feel like $20 is just EVGA getting greedy. This backplate should have just come on the GTX 960 for free. Luckily I got this for free as a promotional deal when I bought the GPU. Other then that this backplate looks awesome and feels sturdy.

The best compound around

Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound AS5-3.5G
Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound AS5-3.5G

Pros: Easy to apply Spreads nice and evenly

Cons: Expensive Small amount

Overall Review: Arctic silver 5 is some of the best thermal compound you can buy. It is worth every penny. It is a small amount you get but it is more than enough considering you don't need to apply that much to the cpu for it to be effective.
