A USB 3.0 SD card reader just what I need
on June 17, 2018
Posted by: Frankie83
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am so glad that USB SD card readers still exists and especially a USB 3.0 version. I needed an external USB SD card reader as the SD card reader on my laptop was starting to go haywire as I transfer a ton of pictures to other media devices to preserve them in archives constantly and this one was perfect and convenient to buy as I didn't need to order online and wait to arrive.

You can't go wrong with Roku
on June 10, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have purchased the 2016 Roku Streaming Stick model before and it's an impressive streaming device, the recent Roku streaming stick I bought is the 2017 model which is the latest and definitely a bit faster then the 2016 model. Reason I purchased another Roku because my family has fallen in love with streaming, it so addictive. Just plug it into your HDMI port and plug the USB cable to your TV's USB port to power it or if you have an older TV you can use the included adapter to power it on then follow the on screen instructions and you'll be good to go. You can't go wrong with Roku.

Yes I am one of those who still copies CDs
on June 10, 2018
Posted by: Frankie83
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I know in this day and age no one uses optical drives anymore but I am a person who still uses CDs because it's another source of data back up because hard drives and ssd's can still fail when saving data so I decided to buy an external dvd burner to continue to copy data on to CDs. This drive works just like any other optical drive but keep in mind this external USB dvd burner uses 2.0 speeds so it's a tiny bit slower compare to a regular SATA optical drive but it works just fine as it does what I need to do. I should add here this drive doesn't need a power adapter as the USB 2.0 cord powers it on when you connect it to your laptop.

When building on a budget, the EVGA 600W 80 PLUS is a great choice at a low cost. Supporting 49A on a single +12V rail provides more options without having to reduce your component requirements. Save space with the 600W's compact design, well­placed power switch and fully sleeved cables. The 600W offers the connections and protections needed for basic system builds. With a standard 3 year warranty and ultra quiet fan design the 600W will be a great asset for your next build on a budget.

EVGA power supply does the job
on January 7, 2018
Posted by: Frankie83
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am sure many of us who are tech gurus and when it comes to power supplies EVGA power supplies are very reliable. If you buy a power supply always buy from a well known manufacturer and also that it's 80 plus rated because the 80 plus rating let's me know that the power supply is tested and is power efficient. Finding out how much wattage you need to power all your desktop components is never easy and it's very important you find out how much watts your computer parts will take and this is just me but I always at least go over 100 watts then I need and for me 600 watts for the components I have in my mid range computer is good as I can put in a gtx 1060 or 1070 in the future but a 1080 I probably need a least 700 watt because it does take up a lot of power. Overall EVGA power supplies are good I haven't had one fail on me yet.

Great Budget Gaming Laptop
on January 7, 2018
Posted by: Frankie83
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Gaming laptop on Black Friday for a good deal around $699. The model I purchased has the Intel i5 7300HQ 4-cores 4 threads with 8GB DDR4-2400 memory, 256GB M.2 SATA SSD with Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050ti 4GB graphics along with a IPS screen, one note here: make sure you check the specs closely because some models of this laptop still sell the laptop with the awful TN screen. Close to 2 months of use with this laptop and I must say for a budget laptop it preforms well. I’m sure a lot of us tech gurus are very weary about any laptop that supposedly says gaming in the title and for under $800 but for me its performance is good. A couple of points about this laptop, one the i5 7300HQ even though it has just 4 cores and threads for normal every day tasks like word processing, browsing the net it handles really smooth with no problems whatsoever. Now for gaming it will handle games that don’t use much CPU and GPU power like CS GO, over watch it will play extremely smooth. If your getting into triple A titles like GTA V this is where you would need to turn down some settings to play over 60 fps. As far upgrade ability I did upgrade this laptop to 16GB of memory even though its over kill but later on down the road that memory will be necessary if your multitasking as I plan to install Photoshop and Premiere and open multiple tabs on chrome browser. There is space for a 2.5 HDD or SSD in which also I like to install for extra storage, if you plan to install an 2.5 HDD or SDD make sure the sata cable is there and a caddie as from previous reviewers say that when they brought this laptop they didn’t have it as you have to order it from Dell so make sure you check if there is a sata cable and caddie. Next, the M.2 slot does support NVMe SSDs in which in the future I will consider upgrading down the line as I do love the very fast speed but the M.2 SATA SSD that is already in the laptop will do just fine. I am happy with this laptop overall, I would of preferred the i7 7700HQ cpu a lot more cause it’s better in performance but it was a bit off my budget but still I am happy with the current laptop I have with the i5 in it.

I got this wireless mouse in a deal with an HP laptop for very little cost so I can't complain. So far this mouse suits my needs, it's easy to hold while moving the cursor on my laptop, it's doesn't lag and the surface of it is smooth. I can always count on Logitech for all my computer peripherals needs.

A laptop to serve my work needs
on August 8, 2017
Posted by: Frankie83
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm sure that I am not alone on this but this HP laptop I got along with extra things like wireless mouse and a bag for very little cost was the reason I bought this laptop and so far this laptop is good as it carries an Intel i5 cpu kaby lake which does well on the mobile side, 8GB of RAM which is all I need for word documents and excel and web browsing a.k.a watching youtube via wi-fi and reasonable amount of USB ports and SD card reader. Only thing I wish this laptop had was an SSD but I can always upgrade at a later time and it's understandable to save costs but I do like very fast boot up times but I guess that is a sacrifice I can deal with for the time being.

Trying out the top of the line Roku player
on August 8, 2017
Posted by: Frankie83
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wanted to try the Roku Ultra to plug in my LG UHD 4K TV and it's a good device watching content on it as 4K continues to come out more it's streams 4K content very well, in reality it's not that different from the premiere + The things about the Ultra player is that it features live voice search, usb port (note: it's a USB 2.0 port) and digital optical audio out jack. If you want the top of the line player yes the Ultra is the one to get but if your looking to save a few bucks I would consider the premiere + more as it does about the same things as the Ultra does.

My First 4K and Smart TV
on April 22, 2017
Posted by: Frankie83
Verified Purchase:Yes
So far I really like this LG 4K UHD smart TV even though there is not a whole lot of 4K programming but for me its prepping up for the future of television resolution. The only 4K videos I have seen is on the LG's youtube app and so far I am impressed picture is nice and sharp and I can't wait to see what future 4K programming will look like. Only things are is you have to really set your color preferences to your liking and the one grip I have is the V shape arm stands I just wished they were more sturdy because they feel like there cheaply made I just hope in the future LG and every TV manufacture would make their arms more sturdy.

HP Genuine Ink as usual
on April 22, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Majority of the time any Printer manufacture wants you to use their ink and not do cartridge fill up from another source I just wish ink was more cheaper to buy since I do lots of color printing but what can you do.
