Outstanding Card
Pros: Runs cooler than my 8800GTX. Uses less power than my 8800GTX did. Games play better as in several games such as Age Of Conan I can now fully max every single graphic slider in the game. Can finally play Crysis @ 1920x1200 with high settings.
Cons: Can't think of any right now.
Information on product
Pros: Intel i5 2nd gen, upgradeable to 16gb of RAM
Cons: 2 RAM slots, the case is not a Tower case as is listed, this is a mini form factor case, just look up Dell 790 Optiplex on the Dell website, you can not fit a normal sized videocard in this case. Has to be low profile. You can not fit a normal sized power supply in this case.
Overall Review: This seller does not want the buyer to know how tiny this case is and so lists the case as a Tower case. Also no picture, it is obvious the seller does not want anyone to know the actual form factor of this case.
Very Happy With Purchase
Pros: The seller shipped the Computer right away. Even though this was a refurbished computer, you really could not tell it was a refurb, their was just a small scrape on one side, and you really had to look to see it. The computer also runs much better than I expected it too. The 2nd Generation i5's are still plenty fast and the kids at the house love the computer.
Cons: Only comes with 4gb of Memory but I am fixing that issue as we speak. Only has integrated Intel video.
Overall Review: The company that does the refurb on these models is excellent.
Great Deal!
Pros: Absolute beautiful picture quality for a TV at this price. Dark darks, bright whites.
Cons: The Sound is not on par with the picture quality.
Overall Review: Buy a cheap pair of speakers, either PC (the TV has a headphone out jack) or a decent pair of shelf speakers and the TV is perfect.
Most Stable N router I've used so far
Pros: Stable connection, long range as I can get a connection just about anywhere in my house with my laptop and the N adapter I bought for the laptop.
Cons: Setup disk was overkill and was not needed.
Overall Review: After plugging it in I did a firmware update to update it to the newest firmware. I have a feeling the people getting dropped connections have done improper network setups are are attempting to use Laptops/Desktops with Wireless G adapters in them instead of N adapter and since G adapter have a range of 120 feet versus 400 feet they are getting dropped connections.
Decent product
Pros: Inexpensive dual-layer DVD's with a printable surface all the way to the hub. Everything printed on them looks beautiful.
Cons: My Pioneer DVR-109 Burner sees these as 2.4x Dual-Layer disks and my Sony DRU-830A only sees the disks as 6x and sometimes burns incorrectly to the disks @ 6x.
Overall Review: Would purchase the disks again as it is very difficult to find Dual-Layer DVD's with a printable surface all the way to the hub.
