Most Favorable Review

Still keeping a cpu cool

SUNON KD1208PTB2 80mm Case Cooling Fan
SUNON KD1208PTB2 80mm Case Cooling Fan

Pros: Got this back in 2003 for a cpu fan and while it's no longer used on main computers it's still alive and working fine for when the case it's in is powered.

Cons: None

Most Critical Review

Not very sli capable

CORSAIR CX series CX750 750W 80 PLUS BRONZE Haswell Ready ATX12V & EPS12V Power Supply
CORSAIR CX series CX750 750W 80 PLUS BRONZE Haswell Ready ATX12V & EPS12V Power Supply

Pros: Cheap power supply right now for just $60 but you may pay extra because of it's price.

Cons: It only has two 6 pin connectors and many better video cards need at least the 8 pins and even then you may need both a 8 pin and a 6 pin for others. So at best the video card will come with a converter but it will take both 6 pins to power the video card with that thus you cannot do sli with this power supply.

Overall Review: Move away from old style 6 pins and include the more normal 6+2 pin if you are going to advertise as sli ready.

Still blowing and sucking

Antec 75000 80mm Case Cooling Fan
Antec 75000 80mm Case Cooling Fan

Pros: Going through old purchase history and I got these in 2003 in a old case yet they are still functioning enough to be useful to this day.

Cons: Old 80 mm style that has largely been replaced by 120 mm fans and a bit louder because of the smaller size.

Overall Review: Comparing to the new 120 mm fans more commonly used now they are louder and less airflow but if you still need this size you can't go wrong.

Still alive and kicking

Crucial 256MB DDR 266 (PC 2100) System Memory Model CT3264Z265 8T

Pros: Been in use since 2003 and still working to this day even though it's been replaced a long time ago in main ones and just extra ram on a old motherboard.

Cons: Not intended for anything halfway new so unless you need it for a special cause it's not worth grabbing anymore.
