High Quality at a Moderate Price

SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7PD256BW
SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7PD256BW

Pros: A surprisingly fast drive, even by SSD standards. Windows loaded quicker than I've ever seen and loading games is quicker than ever. Gone are the days of trying to find something to occupy your time while loading! The price was a little more than some of the others on the market in the same range, but the quality of Samsung really shows through here. I've compared to some of the other SSD's I've used and this has blown everything else at it's price point out of the water.

Cons: None that I could note. Very satisfied customer.

Best Case on the Market

Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case with Upgraded USB 3.0

Pros: This is the best overall case on the market that I've found. I am building my 5th computer in the last 2 years. In that time I have gone through four different cases and in the end I came back to the Antec 900. The cooling on this is great, I tend to have hot-running builds and with the stock fans alone, you can keep a comfortable (and shockingly quiet considering how many there are) temperature. With adjustable settings on the fans, you can perfectly balance noise and temperature. One of the better looking cases, with a nice open window and the blue lighting make the case look pleasant. On top of that, it offers great customization options, for the drives on the front. It gives you the option to make it really 'your' build.

Cons: The only down side I have found is that the cable management was rather tricky, but that is something you will find with a lot of cases. It is not an overwhelming issue, just a small annoyance.

Overall Review: Probably my favourite current computer case and it blows everything in it's price range out of the water.

Form and Function

Saitek Eclipse II Illuminated Keyboard

Pros: The backlighting is really nice, with the three colour choices and the dimming control. The keyboard responds very well, while typing. I do a lot of gaming and it feels good right out of the box.

Cons: The keys are a little widely spaced, for some. I've got big enough hands that it doesn't bother me, but I can see some struggling with this.

Overall Review: All around good keyboard, great for the price. I would recommend it to anyone who didn't mind having a slightly larger key separation than most. Looks good and feels good. No complaints, here.
