Under their gaming brand, they produce mice, mouse mats, keyboards, headsets. They have a global operations infrastructure with multiple distribution channels, partnerships, and great marketing in over 60 countries worldwide.
I used their very own Corsair Vengeance LPX memory kit in my PC for home use, equipped with my Biostar TB250-BTC motherboard.

The Corsair Vengeance LPX specifications:

  • 4 GB
  • 288 pins
  • DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200)
  • Single Channel
  • Cas latency of 14
  • An access time of 5.83 nanoseconds

I bought this RAM at a great price of $60.74 at Newegg! According to PC World they give this a 4.5 out of 5 expert rating.

My Review of the 500 GB Western Digital SSD

<![CDATA[Western Digital is all about quality products, being the first manufacturer to offer mainstream ATA HDDs in 2001. Since then they have been about delivering only the best to their customers
The 500 GB SSD I put into my home PC makes my PC runs great, and according to the reviews on Newegg other people think so too.  “Faster response time”, “very easy to install”, “Spot-on performance for a late-model SATA SSD”

The specifications for this SSD are as follows:

  • 500 GB capacity
  • Read and Write speeds up to 560 and 530 MBps
  • Mean time before failure is up to 1.75 million hours
  • A limited warranty of 3 years

I bought this SSD off of Newegg for just $129.99! 
I would recommend this SSD to anyone looking for a good performance out of their SSD for their time and money!
