Great Self Contained Cooler
on June 22, 2015
Posted by: Slyck
from Houston, TX
I had used the old H100i on my i7 2600k and it did an admirable job, I recently upgraded to an i7 4790k and the older version was only keeping it around 40 celcius while overclocked to 4.6 non turbo boost. I saw this and decided to give it a shot and i'm getting temps in the high 20s and low 30s at idle now. I am much happier with the performance of the new cooler. Definitely a worth while upgrade over an air cooler for your PC.

Great Screen
on June 17, 2015
Posted by: Slyck
from Houston, TX
This is a monitor I would only recommend to someone who needs a lot of screen real estate and only wants 1 monitor (for 3d rendering or gaming). This is an awesome monitor for gaming, everything looks great on the monitor and I really like that I can have it in portrait or landscape with a quick move.
If you play games and have a higher end GPU (780ti SLI, 970 SLI, 980+) This monitor gives you an amazing picture, if you don't have a higher end set up, then this isn't the monitor for you.
Only has 1 input and it's a display port so you have to have a newer GPU to use it. This monitor is great with Flight Sims as well.

Paris 1789 — the once-hub of cultural and intellectual activity has been thrown into bloody chaos in the midst of the tense French Revolution. Commoners have become tired of the oppressive regime of the aristocrats and have finally gathered the courage to confront the hierarchy with the pangs of the present inequality. As the nation of France tears apart at the seams, splitting into different factions, a young man named Arno sets off on a journey to reveal the true powers behind the Revolution. In the process of seeking the truth, Arno must face a ruthless struggle as he seeks to carve out a new destiny for the nation he holds dear.From the storming of the Bastille to the execution of King Louis XVI, experience the French Revolution in all its remarkable, gory detail as never before in Assassin's Creed: Unity. With an all-new game engine, Revolutionary Paris is rendered in incredibly realistic detail, letting you freely explore the open world of 18th century Paris. Navigate your way through complex building interiors, discover secret catacombs and slink through sewer systems. Featuring realistic, systemic crowds of up to 5,000 AI-driven characters, you'll feel as if you're truly in the throngs of the city. Play as Arno — a developing Master Assassin — embarking on ancestral missions, treasure hunts, murder mysteries, contracts and other heart-pounding adventures. Eliminate enemy threats with a wide range of new weapons, including the Phantom Blade, which combines a hidden blade with crossbow capabilities for ultimate devastation. Utilize full-motion control with parkour mechanics, so you can freely run up, down and across city walls and buildings. Want to remain discreet? Enhanced stealth gameplay makes it easy to stay hidden as you stalk your prey and strike without warning. Customize your play experience by choosing from hundreds of possible combinations of weapons, gear, outfits and specialized skills. Take part in an epic single-player campaign or join up with 3 friends online. You and your lethal band must rely on communication skills to successfully accomplish a slew of missions — sabotage an execution, protect an emperor, assassinate a Templar agent and more. Do you have the skills needed to reverse the fate of an entire city?

Lots of Bugs
on November 25, 2014
Posted by: Slyck
from Houston, TX
This feels like Black Flag all over again without the pirate ships, there are quite a few bugs as well including loss of faces on the people you interact with. Hopefully that will be fixed soon. The game isn't what I was expecting at all.

It was awesome to finally get the whole halo series in one place, Halo 2 looks absolutely amazing with the refresh. If you are a Halo fan, it's an easy buy because you can play all 4 games off one disc.

Great Battery Life
on November 25, 2014
Posted by: Slyck
from Houston, TX
The battery life on my Note 3 was pretty bad, even after a few resets. I bought a Note 4 to replace it and i'm very happy with it. The battery life is stellar, 30% or more left at the end of a 16 hour day. The S Pen is just as fluid, the options are a little more defined as well. The screen looks amazing, the Ultra HD makes it really easy to look at it and read as well as making pictures look more vivid.
If you want a phone with additional options, longer battery life or like the Note series, this is a great buy. My only complaint is that it went back to USB 2.0 Micro instead of staying with USB 3.0, I had tons of those cables.

If you loved Farcry 3, this won't disappoint.

A lot of fun, very similar to 3 which was a great game so it makes this a lot of fun. Missions are fun, a lot of stuff to grab. If you like the series or want something that involves some stealth, this is a great game.

Great Router

I use it in...:Small home
Bought this to replace the wifi on my comcast box and it has been awesome. It runs really well, the easiest router I have ever set up, the advanced features are really awesome. I like the built in protection it has as it blocks all sorts of junk from websites which is a huge perk. Overall i'd recommend it for anyone who streams Netflix or plays games online.

great value
on August 3, 2013
Posted by: Slyck
This tablet was a real shocker to me, I am quite impressed by how loud it gets when listening to music or watching Netflix. It really is a great size for taking on the go with me and the screen is just outstanding. I am really enjoying this tablet and definitely feel I got my monies worth for it. Stock android is definitely a huge step up from the other versions on most of the other options out there. The multiple user option is awesome as well!

Best smartphone i've experienced!
on October 1, 2012
Posted by: Slyck
from STL
Age:25-34
Phone size:Just right
Bought this phone after testing most of the phones on the market. I use my phone for business and personal so it has to do both very well. The camera is amazing and the pictures are very crisp. The audio quality is unbelievable, the beats sound engine really makes a difference and meets the hype. The phone feels perfect in my hands (I have larger hands) and typing is simple even when you have the phone in portrait. I swapped from an iPhone and don't regret it at all.
Lots of great options, the lack of a SSD slot isn't as bad due to being able to use Google Play to store music and access it anywhere and everything gets backed up to your gmail from your phone. The S3 was my second choice but the way the One X feels just put it ahead for me. The other great thing is the amount of apps available that help me in my field of work and allow me to easily relate to my customers.
What's great about it: Music quality and how customisable it is.
What's not so great: Battery could be a bit bigger since its a built in.

How effectively does this monitor run the ps4? Is it able to run all the features?

It will only work if you have a Displayport to HDMI cable. The monitor doesn't have any speakers and honestly you won't get all the benefits of the monitor using a PS4, this is definitely designed for PC enthusiasts.

can ATT version be unlocked to use on other carriers?

You have to contact AT&T and they would have to furnish you with the unlock code. Giving you the code is at their discretion.
