Great Processor

Intel Core i3-3220 - Core i3 3rd Gen Ivy Bridge Dual-Core 3.3 GHz LGA 1155 55W Intel HD Graphics 2500 Desktop Processor - BX80637i33220

Pros: I run Skyrim on ultra high quality with upwards of 10 mods with very low load times between screens. Of course, my video card and SDD play a part in this, but still.

Cons: None

Underwhelming

Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

Pros: Cheap, makes noise through the speakers, usually picks up your voice on the microphone.

Cons: You have to make out with the mic in order to speak at a normal level. I really dont like the velvet ear cushion things; they pick up all kinds of lint and feel gross if your ears get hot. I don't feel like it needed an in-cord volume control. Just made it to where I had a THIRD place to check when my volume was too high/low/muted.

Broken foot, but good deal

Pros: Easy cable management, plenty of air flow and fan placement options, every cord under the sun. Only has one light, the one designating that the power is on (which is blue). One of the main reasons I bought it- I hate light up cases. I've owned it for 2 years now.

Cons: It arrived with one of the plastic foot insert locations bent, keeping me from being able to secure the foot. So it's wobbly. I'd already had to wait 2 weeks to replace my power supply (which I had to jimmy because of the metal foot insert locaton being bent inwards) so I said "whatever" and just decided to deal with it. Not too big of a deal, but I have to use a stack of quarters to keep it level on solid flooring.

Worth it

Pros: Fast, reliable. I've had it for 2 years without issues of any kind. Going to buy a 250gb soon to accompany my 120gb.

Cons: None for my experience

Aww yiss

Great Monitor

Pros: It shows things in high def and pretty colors. Great resolution

Cons: Sometimes you can see horizontal off-color lines that slowly move down the screen. But for the price, this doesn't bother me too much
