Good PSU

Thermaltake Tough Power TP-750P 750 W ATX 12V 2.3 & SSI EPS 12V 2.92 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Active PFC Power Supply
Thermaltake Tough Power TP-750P 750 W ATX 12V 2.3 & SSI EPS 12V 2.92 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: Good price Very quiet Plenty of connectors 80+ Gold

Cons: Cant run overclocked GTX 480's and 956 BE overclocked on beanchmarks, but I knew that going in.

Overall Review: I bought this on sale for a "new" build and was slightly worried that 750 wasnt enough and I was correct. Im running two GTX 480's and a 965 BE both heavily overclocked and all is well till I start to benchmark, I can game for hours with no problem. Overall it went in with no hassles and worked great, Im just asking more than it can give. It does have plenty of connections for whatever you may need.

Great support

Pros: Stable and a great deal. got them on sale black Friday of 2013

Cons: Got a bad stick and one on the heat sinks fell off

Overall Review: i just had to RMA my ram kit as one heat sink fell off onto my video card and the other stick would give me random BSOD. That being said Mushkin has the easiest RMA of any company Ive had to deal with in the past. A few email and my RMA was approved, less that 5 min wait time when I called in for support with queations and the option to ship the new sticks to me before I return the old ones(they did put a hold on my card till they receive the defective sticks) As for the heat sink they appear to have fixed the issue as they now come with clips to securely fasten the sinks to the ram.

AWESOME

Pros: Price, Screen, Speed, Keyboard, Big Hard Drive

Cons: Battery Life, Graphics

Overall Review: I got this after the sale but wish I got it earlier. Still you just cant beat this price for what you get. This is a highly reflective screen which has GREAT contrast but easily smudges and gets hard to see in bright light. This is very fast though. It powers though updates, DVDs and web surfing. The ram and big hard drive only help on this. The battery life sucks, about an hour with heavy usage so I keep it plugged in. The graphics are also pretty weak however they do get the job done and I didnt expect anything more out of it since better graphics means more heat and battery drain. Overall this is a great laptop and I'm very satisfied with my purchase PS Newegg rocks as always!!! Ordered it Wednesday am got it Friday pm. LOVE NEWEGG!!!!!

Pros: This thing cools great!! Lowered CPU temps from low 60's to high 30's to low 40's Very quiet, I have no sides or top on my case and my video card's fan is louder. Can do push pull( I am not because I have no need to)

Cons: Big, like REALLY big. I cant put the side on my mini atx case, but I dont like it on anyways. Had to unmount the Mother Board

Overall Review: Took me a little while to put this in ~15 min because I had to unmount the Mother Board (Asus board AMD CPU) but it was easy to install and pretty self explanatory.

Works Great

Pros: Works. Loads Blue-Ray faster than my sony Blur-Ray player Quiet Plenty of features Cheep

Cons: Not 5.1 out the box

Overall Review: Other people are saying that the drive sucks or that the software doesn't work but I have had no problems. Drive is plug and play and Power DVD installed easily with no problems and about updated itself. Its also got tons of extras with the Power DVD suite. Mine came with Power DVD 8 not 7 like others have said
