Pros: Great case for the price. Lots and lots of room. Great air flow and very sharp looking. Very Fast Shipping!

Overall Review: Again great case. would recommend any XION case to anyone. they are a good brand. other reviews say the PSU is bad but mine is working just fine on the system i built but will replace it later on.

Garbage

OCZ Gold 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Desktop Memory Model OCZ3G1066LV4GK
OCZ Gold 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Desktop Memory Model OCZ3G1066LV4GK

Pros: None

Cons: Ordered a set for a custom build and the memory worked great at first. Ordered a 2nd set for another custom build and the memory was bad from the start. A couple weeks later got a call from the customer with the first build saying that the computer was crashing. I ran some tests on the first set of ram in that system and results came back with errors.

Overall Review: Iv never had a problem with OCZ until i started using this series of ram. This series of ram is just complete garbage and i just don't understand why a poor product like this is still being sold with so many bad reviews. I thought id take a shot with this ram despite the bad reviews and now i wish i didn't. Stay away from this memory. I do not recommend this to anyone. Spend a little extra money on a better series of OCZ memory or go get Corsair memory.

BEST ROUTER I'VE EVER HAD!!!

D-Link Xtreme Gigabit Router (DIR-655) Wireless N300, USB SharePort, Gigabit
D-Link Xtreme Gigabit Router (DIR-655) Wireless N300, USB SharePort, Gigabit

Pros: I own the 1st version of this router before they changed to version 2. I have been using this router for 6 years straight with 0 issues. This router is a tank and has outlasted anything i have ever used before. I run 50mb thru my home and I never drop speed or connection. I use it for mainly gaming and LAN parties, streaming movies and music and it just never lets up. This is simply an amazing router. I am now D-Link for life.

Cons: Waiting for this thing to die so I can buy a the new D-Link DGL-5500, but it wont! Lol not really a con :)

Overall Review: Again going on 6 years straight with no issues. This to me shows the quality that D-Link has in their products. This is simply an amazing router and i cant wait to buy a new router from D-Link.

An Awesome PSU

Sunbeam PSU-ECO750-US-BL 750 W ATX12V 2.3 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply
Sunbeam PSU-ECO750-US-BL 750 W ATX12V 2.3 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: This PSU is a tank and just wont die. Bought this PSU in 2010 and to this day it is still running strong with no issues. Its currently running in my LAN box on an i7 950 OC 4.5Ghz, an SSD, 1.5TB HDD, EVGA SLI Mobo and 2 EVGA GTX 660 Ti FTW Signature 2 Video cards. I see a lot of people giving this a low rating but i have had no issues at all. I must have gotten a good one.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I was a little unsure about getting this PSU at first but it has proven me wrong by lasting 4 years with no issues so far.

SEXY!

Corsair Carbide Series 500R Arctic White Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case
Corsair Carbide Series 500R Arctic White Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case

Pros: I fell in love with this case the very first time i had seen it. Honestly i think this case is sexy as hell. The white just makes this case POP. The case offers more than enough room for everything i have and has plenty of space left over for cable management. With all the fans and places to mount extra fans you will never have to be worried about cooling issues. I would HIGHLY recommend this case to anyone looking for a roomy case with very sturdy construction and awesome cooling. I only buy 4 brands EVGA, Corsair, LG and Intel. Corsair has proved with this case and others that they are the best at what they do.

Cons: None!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BEAST!!

EVGA 01G-P3-1561-AR GeForce GTX 560 Ti FPB (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
EVGA 01G-P3-1561-AR GeForce GTX 560 Ti FPB (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Had 2 GTX550 Ti cards in SLI overclocked to 1Ghz and ran the Heaven DX11 Benchmark and got an average of 54FPS. Ordered 2 of these GTX560 Ti cards in SLI, overclocked them to 900MHz and ran the same benchmark getting 94FPS average. Hell just one of these cards got the same frames as the 2 GTX550s i had. These cards are just insane and can run any game i throw at them. Batman Arkham City on EXTREME DX11 setting at a nice 50 - 60FPS. Skyrim at full tilt is nothing for these cards. I am just amazed at the performance of these cards and i HIGHLY recommend anyone looking for a great video card to buy one.

Cons: NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
