I'm going to do an out of 10 star review for each part I get. I'm also going to post these reviews on the site I order from so other people can read them. I just ordered my Keyboard so I'll start with that.

Keyboard:
Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard (9/10) -

PROS:
*Glows orange!
*Beautiful MFD LCD screen, with decent customization.
*MFD LCD screen is open source programmable for.
*Comfortable to type in (and wrist/hand rest is removable, depending on preference.)
*Media keys: Play/Pause, Stop, Forward (Search), Backward, Vol+, Vol-, Mute
*Windows/Application Key lock.
*Lots of software support.
*USB plugs.
*High quality design.

CONS:
*Expensive for a keyboard.
*This model can't change backlight colors.
*Not powerful enough LCD scripting / priority setting.
*Requires drivers running for full usage, taking up resources.

COMMENTS:
This keyboard is absolutely fucking amazing. It is comfortable to type with, it looks great lit up, and it functions well. The wrist/hand rest is optional (detachable), but after a few hours of use it feels like second nature. I'm having a small trouble adjusting, mainly from different key sizes, as well as the G-button locations. The G-buttons are much like F-buttons except completely programmable (anywhere from simple program shortcuts, to fully scripted macros), and there 6 are of them. My only problem with them is the G1 button is at the top left of the keyboard, (about 1 inch to the left of the Escape button.) I use my fingers to feel (like any true typist) and apparently I go by "end of the keyboard" for escape, because I constantly hit G1 instead of ESC. I could program G1 to function as ESC, but I'd rather give myself a little time to learn the keyboard. This is not a design flaw of the G15, this key position adjustment happens with any major keyboard change, big or small. Different keys, different lay outs, different sizes, etc... I do not fault Logitech for the G-key placement. What I DO fault them for is layout of the media keys. All of them are very functional and high quality... that isn't the issue here. It just seems really backwards. I have a few plans for how to layout the media keys, but this is a minor issue, and I'm sure with time I will adjust (the same as the ESC/G1 issue) but it does seem unconventional the way the buttons are set up for media. Now, onto the screen. It is the main reason to justify ~$100 for a keyboard, so it better be worth it. You have my word that it is. It is an LCD screen with 4 buttons, (5 if you include the "program" changer), and glows in the same orange color the rest of the keyboard does. The default software is decent, but it is extended user support that really makes the investment in this product worth it. Programs from more advanced system info data (CPU/MEM/GPU/VMEM data, even individual fan speed data!) can be easily found online. It is also very easy to set up a priority system (Weather Update < CPU data < MP3 data < Game data) based on what applications you are running. While not "AOL" easy to set up, this keyboard isn't designed for that kind of user. If you are paying this much for a keyboard, you probably have a decent understanding of computers. I should note that the keyboard has a multiple G-button program mode, which sounds nice (I use a similar system on my joystick), but I have not had much use with it yet so I cannot review it. I will say the G-buttons are helpful though, assigning Firefox, Windows Live Mail, and Calculator on it is helpful. Being an avid gamer, I can only imagine the uses of fully macro programming and "on the fly" macro recording. I use similar features on my joystick, but I have not used the keys for gaming yet. The last feature I can think of, a simple switch deactivates the Windows-key so you don't accidentally strike it (in some games meaning your immediate death as the Start Menu minimizes your game.) I have rarely had this problem, but it's a nice touch. This keyboard also includes two USB plugs, but I have many on my system already. If you have the funds to be able to consider this expensive of a keyboard, I recommend you go through with it. It is a great keyboard, worthy of hardcore computer enthusiasts and gamers.

Mouse:
Razer DeathAdder 3500DPI Gaming Mouse (8/10) -

PROS:
*Comfortable.
*Glows blue, and logo "pulsates" like it's breathing.
*Customizable light settings.
*Thumb buttons functional and comfortable.
*Infrared eye with 3500 DPI; incredibly accurate and responsive.
*Adjustable polling rate and DPI settings.
*On the fly sensitivity adjustment.
*All buttons and wheel programmable with different user settings.
*Easy to switch between user profiles.
*Braided wire with gold plated USB connector.
*Cheaper than other gaming mice, even compared to other Razer products.

CONS:
*Missing more advanced light customization (such as behavior when idle).
*Cannot save light settings to profile.
*At 1000MHz polling rate, buttons become unresponsive. This may be a limitation of my motherboard.
*For best performance, requires drivers and programs running at all times.
*Thumb buttons don't glow.

COMMENTS:
This mouse is really nice for what I paid. It is comfortable for normal use as well as gaming, and all the buttons are spot on with my hand and finger shape. All the buttons are now responsive, but when I had it at full 1000MHz polling rate, the trigger button (left click) would sometimes lock in "on" or simply not respond at all when playing a video game. Turning down polling rate fixed this, and this may be a limitation of my motherboard. I like the idea of on the fly sensitivity adjustment, but I have not found a use for that personally just yet. Also, I wish the lights were more controllable, but the "breathing" effect is a nice touch. Switching profiles is easy, but I currently have no use for that as light settings are not applied to it. Over all this is a great quality gaming mouse, and 3500DPI is amazingly precise.

i ordered the case but standard shipping was like 30 bucks (fucking newegg. at least newegg is incredible about ignoring warranties and providing full refunds no matter what incase anything is wrong) so it wont be here until wednesday. i was not goign to pay fucking 125 bucks for next day shipping. THATS ALMOST AS MUCH AS THE CASE COSTS!!!! fuck THAT

thats why i go with tiger direct or comp usa store

i was gonna do tiger direct but they didn't have it in the color i wanted. im not spending 200 bucks on a case to settle on a color i dont really want lol

my case arrived. it's sexy as hell but i can't really review it until the whole system is built. i mean how am i gonna test airflow .... its not like i have components creating heat LOL. i can tell you its fucking gorgeous though. i might get pictures with my dads camera (which is way better quality than the shit pictures ive been taking with my webcam)

whats sweet is that motherboard is 100 dollars cheaper than i was thinking, so i should have it by the middle of april. hopefully by then the i7 core's will drop in price a bit.

hell yeah
