Excellent
Pros: Very comfortable, different sides actually matter, though I keep it on the speed side pretty much all the time.
Cons: Hard to clean the cloth part under the double sided piece.
Fast, but loud
Pros: Very fast, good software comes with it. Asus quality.
Cons: Noise, you can tell when it starts reading discs, it's louder than my raptor drive.
Overall Review: Performance is in mind here, not noise, if you need low acustics look elsewhere, otherwise great buy.
Large Beast
Pros: This keeps my CPU running very cool, and is a fantastic design. Even with it's enormous size, still fits onto my motherboard. Looks nice too.
Cons: It is pretty enormous, I imagine some motherboards might not be able to fit it.
Overall Review: Good value for the money, once I start OCing my system this should really help out.
Excellent Screen
Pros: The monitor looks incredible, my roommates all have Samsungs of the same size. And they even look out done by this impressive animal. The colors are very vibrant, and the brightness is incredible. I have been very impressed with this monitor.
Cons: Some of the menu controls could be streamlined, I use this to run my 360 through as well, and it's a little annoying to have to adjust things through that little menu between DVI and VGA. No big deal though, it's not a TV.
Overall Review: If you want a wonderful monitor for the price, this is the one. Even some of the more expensive models don't compare to this. Glossy is the only way this could be any better.
