Arduino Starter Kit UNO R3 Step Motor Servo 1602 LCD Screen Breadboard Jumper Cable Whole Set for Arduino Beginner Starter Learning Study with Remote
Arduino Starter Kit UNO R3 Step Motor Servo 1602 LCD Screen Breadboard Jumper Cable Whole Set for Arduino Beginner Starter Learning Study with Remote

Pros: See other thoughts

Cons: see other thoughts

Overall Review: The arduino platform is based completely on open source! You can find the schematics for the whole board. There is no such thing as a fake! So long as it performs with the software or better I do not see any issues with a so called "knock off" or "counter-fit" Also I own a legit arduino uno and the one I bought did not come with a manual either, you must go to arduino.cc for programs and help. Please use this and re-post if your board works rather than discouraging everyone from buying this kit with out knowing what you are talking about.

APEVIA X-QPACK2-NW-BK/500 Black Aluminum Body/ Front Mask Micro ATX Desktop Computer Case 500W Power Supply

Pros: looks ok 500w psu works/ still does

Cons: Handle came loose after maybe 3 movement uses, nearly dropped my computer when one screw came out of the handle. Layout is pretty bad, wasted space, no way to do cable management. If you are planning to put a gaming rig in here, don't plain and simple. If you plan to put anything other than a simple media pc in here, don't... Look at the dimension specs, this thing isn't as small as you might think. Flimsy, front grates pop out easy.

Overall Review: I have no experience with other shuttle like cases but... Q: Higher than a media pc??? A: Mid tower or larger.

Good I like it, got instead of ROG Crosshair...

Pros: **Update- With updates to bios running my 1800x at 4.125Ghz 1.5v (lost the lottery? or I'm bad at OCing) ram at D.O.C.P. 3000 set to 2666mhz 15-17-17-17-39-1.35v with Corsair H110 coolant can get up to 34 C while processor gets to ~65 C under prime 95 small FFTs. It just can't whisk away the heat fast enough. ** I'll try to keep this short. Got this March 8th -Setup is easy -Ryzen 1800x clocked at 4.1ghz by increasing multiplier only, everything else auto (have Corsair H110i) OCing through BIOS, was quick needs further tweaking.

Cons: **Update- -2 Eggs for instability/poor quality (I'm an Electronics tech/ engineering student, can't hit the mark here how can I trust the rest?) Not too happy that the RGB stopped working on the board (yes frills but I got a case to display it), getting driver install errors when starting up AURA and flashing the bios did nothing nor did reinstalling AURA. Not reinstalling windows or tearing my rig apart to send this back. Haven't reported it yet and doubt I will as I doubt Asus or Newegg will do anything to make this better other than sending the board back, which if I did that I'd want to get the Crosshair but I really don't want to deal with all of that for cosmetics. Still peeved though because I liked the RGB option. ** -Also not confident with the CPU temp being reported (70-80 C while corsair H110i is reporting 30 C? very big difference) -Corsair Vengeance 3000mhz ram @ 1066 (2133) can't bring it up past that -USB2.0 header shortage (had to sacrifice USB2.0 on the front case to hook up corsair PSU and CPU cooler, might ditch the PSU interface

Overall Review: **Update- Again I am not closed minded, maybe it's a driver issue or bios issue. It's literally not worth my time as a technician to even look at this board for burnt IC's, I'll send it back before I get to that point. Hopefully an update fixes the RGB in which case I'll update. Better Ram support will also increase eggs here. ** -Not using AI software, I find it safer through BIOS and that sort of software causes conflicts. -I'll be more happy with a BIOS fix for ram and general stability with OCing -Pre ordered the ROG Crosshair- canceled because i'm not waiting 2 months. Ordered this through Newegg. -I understand the growing pains here, I think this is an excellent product considering timing, however I'll update upon continued support and compatibility fixes

Pros: Good product, nevermind my last comment. The mag does work, it was a combination of multiwii config tweaking and properly calibrating the mag.

Cons: Working flawlessly right now. none

Overall Review: I successfully calibrated using Multiwii Configuration program by, hitting calib_mag and slowly turning the whole unit over the course of about 10 seconds for 1 rotation. (I used and office chair to get a flat smooth rotation) Spot on now. I apologize for my incompetence.

Looks good

Pros: Looks great, according to manufacturer website this thing has a max cooling TDP of 230W !!! on AIR. Im thinking of getting this sometime in the future as my H60 just cant keep up with my fx8350 oc'd. I think 230w tdp cooling would be far superior than most setups.

Cons: n/a

XFX Double D Radeon R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 Graphics Card R9-270X-CDFC

Pros: Great, forget when i bought this but it's been a few months at least. Still rocking and my cpu (fx 8350) bottlenecks this thing about 80% of the time.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Over clocks alright, mines litecoin at about 400 kh/s, dark coin at about 2 mh/s. Decided to get a used Reference xfx r9 290a enfc for 280 to the door. For mining darkcoin and an upgrade for when i play games. This 290 should unlock to a 290x witha bios flash, we'll see when i get it. Anyways I highly recommend this card unless you can spare the extra 100 and are willing to buy used, then go big or go home :)

RMA for LCD screen shipped in an envelope approved. New one on the way, and was relatively prompt. Reading tracking information and it says "international letter" again, Oh boy.... Unless they start shipping LCDs in boxes I don't recommend ordering such items from this seller.

Bad Shipping

Received LCD touch screen in a bubble wrap envelope along with 2 other components I ordered. Emailed seller, only been a day but did RMA through newegg and they put a request for better packaging on replacement. I don't know why they thought it was a good idea, but stuff happens. Will follow up when replacement comes.
