Patriot Signature 16GB (2 x 8GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Laptop Memory Model PSD316G1333SK

Pros: Fast and reliable for my Early 2011 17" MacBook Pro 8,3! Put the memory in, booted up in no time flat, ran GeekBench and 2 hours of Memtest for OS X. No errors, flawless performance. Time will tell, but in my experiance 2 hours of memtest and no errors, means smooth sailing for the long haul!

Cons: None

Overall Review: Great Price, and Great shipping speed as always from Newegg.com. I trust only them for quick and reliable product shipments.

Decent - great value

Pros: Great price! Looks good, solid feel. Can clip to key ring without worrying it's gonna snap in half.

Cons: Not 3.0, but I cannot in good faith take an egg off for that

Overall Review: Not very fast, but I sacrificed 3.0 for price. I'm overall happy with my purchase.

Excellent Support

NZXT GAMMA Classic Series GAMA-001BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Great case for the money, lots and lots of modern features in a low cost bundle. I purchased this item from the local Micro Center, and had them price match to Newegg price =D, but got it home, and it had no hardware. Micro Center said "Sorry bout your luck" so I went online looking specifically for the Tool less brackets for the Hard Drives, (everything else I can pick up individually), could not find mounting brackets anywhere for sale online, so tried to call NZXT directly to purchase some replacement parts directly. They told me they do not sell them, but they will be happy to ship my the "Entire" hardware set (motherboard screws and mounts, optical hardware, extra fan and all) for free, seeing how I just purchased the box. Super friendly and arrived 2 days later via Fed Ex. NZXT has made a customer for life. Tons of Cooling Options and very efficent modern design.

Cons: Front usb/esata ports are poorly connected. Little epoxy takes good care of it tho, so not enuf to take off an egg

Overall Review: Asus M4N98TD EVO, AMD Phenom II 965 BE OC'd to 3.9 Ghz, 8 GB G.skill ripjaws 1600, 2x Asus Nvidia 460s 1GB, NZXT Gamma (With NZXT m59 front bezel) Cooler Master Hyper 212+, Samsung BD Rom, XIGMATEK 75 in 1 Card Reader, 4 120mm Cooler Master Fans, 2 140 Cooler Master Fans, NZXT Sentry-2

Good Value - Does its job

Pros: Good solid fast memory at a good price

Cons: none

Overall Review: PNY is not my first choice, but was upgrading sisters pc, and is doing fine, for what she needs, if you do any "heavy load" apps (Video editing, heavy gaming etc, I recommend lower latency ram such as high end corsair or the like...

Fast

HP Laptop Pavilion Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 3GB Memory 500GB HDD NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GS 17.0" Windows Vista Home Premium DV9750US(KC349UA)

Pros: This system is fast, runs Call of Duty 4 w/ max settings quite well, scored over 8500 3d marks on '06. Not a value PC at all, but value priced!

Cons: Not a 1080p display =(. Not a 64 bit Vista =(. Blu Ray output looks good, but not as good as would be in 1080p. Does not come w/ blu ray video playback software, tho it does come w/ 30 gigs of bloatware from HP ><.

Overall Review: Even tho it does not have full 1080p Resolution, I am still very happy with the purchase. If i want to watch it in full 1080P, I just hook it to my DLP TV, and watch it on 56" =).

Love the handle

Linkworld 3210-04-C2628 Black/ Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Linkworld 3210-04-C2628 Black/ Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: This case is great. Very roomy to work in, and load up. I have 2 SLI cards 4 hard drives and 2 dvd drives, not to mention a monster of a fan on my CPU, and it took about 30 mins to get everything situated properly. And I absolutely love the handle!!

Cons: Weak addons. The side panel for USB/audio has been faulty in 2 out of 2 of these cases I have seen, making it useless imo, having to use the back I/O panel anyhow

Overall Review: Handle is great, but accessories are lousy. Depends on what you need. Trying to find another case w/ a really awesome handle like that has been a pain, and so I have stuck w/ this case.
