Pros: when i first got this modem, a few years back it worked fine.. very easy to set up

Cons: not sure if its a con- see below

Overall Review: had this modem for about 4 years, i noticed my internet speed decrease.. never thought it was the modem.. but i ran dslreport with this modem on comcast - just under 4megs download and never reached over 3kb upload.. bought a new modem, motor*** ran same speed test.. downloads now range from 12 to 18 megs down and just over 2megs upload speed.. my pings are now lower with online gaming and havent noticed any lag spikes or rubber banding.. i guess over time, modems fatigue..?? just food for thought..

Most Critical Review

Good, but Not for Me

OCZ Technology Behemoth Black USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse
OCZ Technology Behemoth Black USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse

Pros: Love the software, much better then OCZ's past software, the scroll wheel is by far the best i have experienced with a gaming mouse.. i love OCZ products, hoping this mouse would be like their Dominatrix which broke and have tried to replace.. its a great mouse-- the Behemoth is no Dominatrix, sadly... the Price is also a MAJOR PRO...

Cons: this part is a personal preference, i don't like the feel of the mouse, it reminds to much of the steelseries mouse... the pinky slot just doesn't cut if for me.. to awkward and uncomfortable.. issue: am not sure if its the mouse or what, but during gaming MP FPS-- the mouse lags big time! during warm up in the game no issues.. i can turn 180 with a little flick of the wrist.. during a match, way different story! get into a fire fight and over half the time, i try to do a quick 180 to get the peep behind me.. and it only turns 1/4 of the way.. i have pick up the mouse and keeping turning to get a 180.. this is not all the time but its the majority of the time and its frustrating as he77... no other mouse has done this with the game am playing.. same goes for the side buttons, over half the time i press them during gaming, and nothing happens! i have to push them two to three times before they work... the lag once again is horrible.. continue below:

Overall Review: And ONCE again these issues only happen with this mouse, i used just about every logitech, steelseries and even other OCZ mice with this game. and NONE have lagged like this... the search for the best gaming mouse FOR ME, continues.. will be RMA';ing this mouse and i have already order the OCZ Eclipse.. like i said i love OCZ products, this one just isnt for me... just hope the Eclipse is more like their Dominatrix minus its horrible software

Amped Wireless SR10000 High Power Wireless-N 600mW Range Extender and Smart Repeater
Amped Wireless SR10000 High Power Wireless-N 600mW Range Extender and Smart Repeater

Pros: looked nice, interface was easy enough thats about it..

Cons: only way i could get it to work with my Netgear router with any security was to dumb down the router to WEP, disable auto channel and drop my mode (speed) to 54mbps.. needless to say, that just aint worth the repeater.. so i returned it..

Overall Review: tech support wasnt all that helpful, all they suggested, 'contact netgear' -- really? its your product! you claim it works with all brands and yeah it did...just at the cost of the integrity of my network and performance.. i'll try another brand.. Hope you have better luck..

What can i say thats others havent

Noctua NF-P14 FLX 140mm Case cooler
Noctua NF-P14 FLX 140mm Case cooler

Pros: great fan- silent, very.. moves a ton of air.. easy to install..

Cons: none

Overall Review: very impressed with this fan.. i have to concur with what others have said-- best fan i ever used.. looking at dumping my HAF-X and going with a new case that uses 120 and 140mm fans only, so i can put nothing but Noctua fans in it..

great while it lasted

GIGABYTE GM-M6980 Black Tilt Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse
GIGABYTE GM-M6980 Black Tilt Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse

Pros: great size and comfort.. side buttons are in perfect spots for me.. and the scroll was very responsive.. software very easy to use..

Cons: left mouse click button died after a week.. which makes playing FPS games pretty impossible..

Overall Review: RMA sent in for a refund.. not sure if i'll get another one, maybe just a lemon out so many others.. but still, left click button stops working?? never had that happen. before,, hesitant to buy another..

Good

Logitech G500 10 Buttons Dual-mode Scroll Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse
Logitech G500 10 Buttons Dual-mode Scroll Wheel USB Wired Laser Gaming Mouse

Pros: see other

Cons: see other

Overall Review: wrap this is up all here: its a nice mouse, good software and so on.. just wasn't for me, found the side grip to similar to the G5, my grip doesn't feel 'secure' my thumb moves along it while game which caused me to hit the side buttons on accident.. which is never good while gaming online.. if they had used the same grip as the MX518 this mouse would be perfect imo... RMA has been sent.. you may differ, good luck..
