1. Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD
This might be one of the fastest SSDs I've used so far. It only takes about 18 seconds to fully boot into Windows.
2. ASUS DirectCU II GTX 660 Ti 3GB OC
For a mid-range GPU, it's got some really solid performance. I can get nearly 60 FPS on medium settings in GTA V at 1080p, but I think I could've gotten more if I had a newer CPU.
3. Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3
It looks cool, that is all.
4. Seagate Barracuda 2TB 5900 RPM
Very quiet for a hard drive. It's also pretty fast too, despite not being a hybrid drive/SSHD
6. Corsair HX750W
Never had any issues with it. I just wish they made it fully modular back then.
7. AMD Phenom II X6 1055T
Really good for it's time, but it now runs worse than newer entry-level CPUs. At least it runs at only 39C under load.
8. MSI 890GXM-G65
I don't like how they combined the PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, and it doesn't support updating the BIOS from a USB.
9. Cooler Master Elite 430
This might be the least favourite part in this list. It's a pain in the ass to manage cables, and it only comes with one blue LED fan on the front. (But I did end up installing two more blue LED fans on the top from the same brand). I thought it looked cool cuz of the big window and fully black interior, and it was only about $40 on sale.
