Got them for my son. At first I was shocked at how expensive gaming headsets are but after a little research we decided on these. They seem to be working great and he says that he's very happy with them.

I needed computer speakers since my new monitor doesn't have any. I wanted ones that offered good sound but didn't want a sub. These are great and I'm very happy.

A must have for expensive electronics
on April 11, 2020
Posted by: Steve
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have 2 of these. 1 for my entertainment center and 1 for my computer desk. It provides top quality surge protection, battery backup plus clean electric power. Peace of mind plus none of my power bricks hum or whine like they sometimes do when plugged in a basic type surge protector/power strip. I do hope they redesign the outlets on the back with a little more space between them and made even a couple outlets at 90 degrees to accommodate oversized and different orientation plugs that are common on routers, modems and network switches.

Great affordable gaming keyboard

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my first quality gaming keyboard and with the current pricing I think it's one of the best. Does everything I need and does it right. I'm to busy to worry about customizing keys and stuff on a keyboard so this was perfect for me. Quality, function and performance is amazing.

Almost perfect

I've tried a few mounts and this one does work great and is very convenient but unfortunately if you use wireless charging at home or the office, the metal plate will interfere. Otherwise it's great. I will get another vent mount but one with a cradle.

This laptop just had a few advantage over the others. Size, weight, keyboard and track pad are perfect for what I needed. 16GB of RAM plus a USB A and 2 Thunderbolt 3 ports bet out the others. I'm 100% happy with my purchase.

Was on sale so decided to buy it since I have a Lenovo yoga laptop. Very compact and works really well. One charge seems to last a long time. Between the mouse, pen and track pad I'm covered no matter what I'm doing.

Two included temperature sensors allow you to keep an eye on your system and create automated fan curves for the most efficient cooling. Powerful CORSAIR iCUE software ties all of these capabilities together in a single interface. Complete with a USB 2.0 pass-through to connect an additional internal USB device and embedded magnets for easy installation, the CORSAIR iCUE COMMANDER CORE XT puts your setup at your command.

If your PC is in the Corsair ecosystem this will be a good device for controlling Corsair fans and argb. iCue software is required though it's a pretty good reliable software.

It depends on the connection type of the RGB/aRGB devices you plan on using. I made my own with spare connectors I had from previous builds. Watch this YouTube video which should be helpful. Corsair Lighting Node hacks for non-corsair RGB devices.

The CM1000 Ultra-High Speed Cable Modem, with speeds up to 1Gbps and DOCSIS 3.1 is 10X faster than DOCSIS 3.0 devices. It's backward compatible with DOCSIS 3.0 and ready for future service plan upgrades for XFINITY from Comcast, Cox, and Spectrum. A Gigabit Ethernet port provides faster access and downloads.
On the Spectrum Authorized Modems page, is says Netgear CM1000v2 is compatible. Is this v2 I don't see where it says it anywhere in the specs or in the model number.
I ordered it on BB website and received the V2 version even though it wasn't specific which version it was. Probably all the older versions are sold out and only the V2 is available now and BB hasn't updated their website description.

Midco list CM1000 & CM1000 v2 BB sells NASversion, Called Netgear they said 3 versions of modem are avail. & order of release are CM1000, CM1000-NAS, CM1000V2 so called Netgear -they said call ISP, called ISP they said call Netgear, this work w/Midco?
I ordered the only CM1000 on BB website which doesn't really clarify if it's V2 or not. When I went to register it on Netgears website it came up as V2 which was great news. I'm pretty sure all the original ones have been sold out and the V2 are what you will get as long as ordering from a reputable company.

Would you be able to overclock an AMD Ryzen 9 3900x
Yes. Easy to overclock multi core to 4.0/4.1 and even up to 4.3 with a single core clock of 4.7/4.8. I have a 3700X on this mobo but my other Asus mobo has the 3900X so I'm familiar both the Mobo and CPU.
