8BitDo - Pro 2 Wireless Controller for Switch, Windows, macOS and Android - Gray
Get a handle on all the action of your favorite games with this gray 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ Bluetooth gamepad. The modifiable vibration feature offers a realistic feel while playing FPS and RPG titles, while the 1000 mAh rechargeable battery pack offers up to 20 hours of use when fully charged. This 8BitDo SN30 Pro+ Bluetooth gamepad has adjustable hair triggers for added accuracy and faster response times.
I got an incredible price for this as a Deal of the Day.
The first sign of a problem was when I hooked it up to my computer with the provided usb cable. It appeared to be charging, but the gamepad was not seen by my computer. I turned on bluetooth and it was seen. I made repeated attempts to play Forza Horizon 4 - but it would disconnect in just a few seconds.
After digging through many user reviews I found several users with the same problem, that was solved by updating the firmware of the gamepad. I found the website with the updates, and making the update was actually pretty easy.
With that done I was able to play Forza Horizon 4 using bluetooth without disconnecting.
I then tried playing using a usb cable, but one that I had on hand and knew was good. This time the gamepad immediately connected with my computer, which properly identified the gamepad.
I have deducted one star for the bluetooth connection problem. It would have been helpful if a card had been provided mentioning a possible need to update the firmware, and pointing to instructions on how to do it.
I deducted another star for what appears to be a defective usb cable. Luckily I had one of my own on hand.
I recommend this gamepad if you can get a considerable discount on it.

I purchased my first gaming pc over two months ago, and needed a sine wave battery backup system to protect my investment. This new pc uses a 850W power supply, and can draw as much as 600W at times. This ups provides the protection my new pc needs. I have had no issues with it. It has been a good purchase.

Just plug the hub into your computer, and the blue LED indicating light lets you know it~s ready for your devices. A 5V, 500 mAh port output delivers consistent and quick power, while a data transfer speed of up to 480 Mbps performs at the speed you need.
I have a wealth of items that need power via a usb port- fans, speakers, etc. This powered usb hub fills that need very well - and keeps my usb 3 ports free for items that need data transmission. It is a very cost effective tool.

Crucial - P3 1TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe
Basic bootup speeds won~t cut it ~ not at work, on the go, or in the game. But the Crucial P3 SSD is anything but basic. With NVMe performance that~s more than 6x faster than SATA2 and storage capacities up to 4TB3, the P3 leaves older storage technology in the dust. Get faster bootups, downloads and file transfers, and store all your files, photos, videos, apps, and games with room to spare with the quality and dependability you expect from Crucial.
I have an older machine that uses one of these for the system drive. It works so well, and is priced so well, that I purchased a second one to use for system image backups. I clone my system drive to this each month, to use as a backup. It is a fairly fast process, and provides a good way to recover if a problem develops.

Im 82, and unsure of computers. Is this wireless? And also too, if this will support playing POGO games? I also play roller-coaster tycoon. I have a disc for that. Will this work as well? Thank you
This laptop has wifi, and it works well. It does not have a built in dvd drive, so you would need to get an external usb dvd drive to use your disc. It should be able to play games that are not too demanding on the computer.

There is a second, unoccupied slot for another stick of RAM. Care must be taken, however, to use RAM that is recognized by this pc. I found Crucial to work. The RAM needs to match the speed of the existing stick, and it must be DDR5.

This pc uses a proprietary motherboard made by HP.

You can use a low power card that runs on the large pcie slot in the computer. I have successfully installed an RTX 3050 with 6GB GDDR6 ram - it is the version with a cap of 70W power draw.

There are no case fans in this pc. The left side panel (the removeable one) is heavily perforated, providing static air flow into the pc. The cpu fan also provides cooling air flow to the solid state drive, which is inside the shroud surrounding the cpu.
