The sound from this little bar.... listening to this in the store on display does not give it justice. Needed a small bar for my main tv. paired it with 2 older Sonos Play 1's and the 5.1 surround is perfect. For their low end "budget", sonos really did well by this product. super happy.
adding a mini sub here soon!

Beautiful display, 75hz (great improvement over normal 60hz displays). VESA mounting points, low energy usage, and pretty lightweight.
For light gaming, kids, desktop/work usage it’s ideal.
Really glad I got these on discount (bought 2 at $129)

Great Ram, paired this with an older kit that is no longer available, so timings are still ok.
Original Kit (discontinued) was 16-18-18-36-54
This kit runs at 16-20-20-38-57. making both my kits at THIS kits 16-20-20-38-57 speed. Still compatible, not as tight, zero issues on my X570 Aorus Elite.
Really cant go wrong with corsair memory, highly compatible with majority of motherboards.

Great card, Stays cool. You DONT need Msi Dragon app, unless you want to modify the stock out of the box RGB lighting.
Coming from a 2060super, this card was a significant improvement. I game on 1440, the 2060s played well at med settings, now im on ultra and seeing double the frame rate. Depending on title, i can max my 165hz Omen 27i out on majority of titles.
this GPU pairs well with 6core and better (Ryzen 3600), i personally paired it with a 3900x and a X570 To use the full potential of PCIe 4.0 speeds. You CAN run this on a PCIe 3.0 slot, there are a few YT videos showing just a slight reduction in speed, throughput and frames.
Overall super happy with the card, picked it up on a flash sale for $769, although i cant figure out the "Original" MSRP of this card, im guessing it was around the $650 range on release day.....so slightly over MSRP is a deal. At current price today, its NOT worth 999, you can get a 6900xt at MSRP for that price. under $800 the card is a good value.

Very nice upgrade from my C920, nothing wrong with the Logitech, however the quality, sharpness and sensor on the Facecam is significantly better.
Use the Facecam app to set your settings, save them to the device and easily move the camera to another computer, location without needing to re-configure custom settings. No mic(c920s was horrible), Despite its size its very lightweight.
Mounting clamp works well on most monitors, USB-C cable is long-enough, wish it was longer. I think its around 3.5 feet.
Low-light is very good, universal camera mount allows easy to use on a tripod or Elgato Ring light, etc.
As for price, $200 is fair, if your already within the Corsair and Elgato umbrella, it pairs nicely with the other products. Would i use it just for a dedicated ZOOM or Business webcam (maybe if your invested in other audio devices, it will make your interactions much cleaner looking) probabbly not, cheaper options out there for non streamers/gamers.

Really good mic, the WaveLink software is undoubtedly one of the best and easiest mixing software's out, and only way to use the software is with one of the WAVE microphones OR a Wave XLR. Low latency monitoring via headphones through the software. Or zero via the 3.5mm jack on back of the mic.
Currently i use the VOID RGB headphones for chat and audio, the addition of the Wave-3 MIC has just improved my audio mix for streaming and recording gameplay.
This is a Condenser mic vs a dynamic mic (it can pick up additional sound from your room, environment. However the latest WaveLink software update allows additional audio effects to clean up that background noise)
Budget friendly, On the professional scale for audio quality. Cant complain!

Recently got a rog strix x670e-e mobo with a gigabyte 4090 on its way but my NZXT H500i case is a bit crammed with a gigabyte 7900xtx, should this give it more room?

Yes I went from a h510 with 280mm aio and 7900xt. The room in this case is tremendously welcomed. Super easy to build in.

what size are the fans that it comes with, what are the sizes I should look for if I wanted to put the largest fans in all the fan spots and what? Also how many would i need, plus i want full RGB so which corsair brand should I get to work with ICUE.

The 15-inch MacBook Air is impossibly thin and has a stunning Liquid Retina display. Supercharged by the M2 chip—and with up to 18 hours of battery life¹—it delivers incredible performance in an ultraportable design.
 

Does this have a usb and a SD slot

No the MacBook has a few usb c ports and a newer MagSafe port. Laptop can be charged via usb c as well. Use a decent hub for any extra accessories

does it work with dell inspiron?

It will work with any ddr4 sodimm slot. If you are unsure on the current ram speed this will
Default to stock 2133mhz speed. Not a big issue for Intel processors. Buy 2 if you want to ensure 3200mhz
