Rating: 1/5Does not properly fit

Pros: None, does not work at all

Cons: Does not fit at all

Other Thoughts: I got tired of my slow pentium 4 so I bought this to replace it. Well this piece will not fit in the slot at all. What a piece of garbage.

There are some real gems on NewEgg. I remember seeing a review for a watercooled EVGA video card where the person gave it one egg because they didn't realize you needed to buy a water loop as well to use the card, LOL. And of course it was NewEgg's fault for not making that fact abundantly clear to him. Must be nice to be so loaded that you can blow $600+ on a piece of computer hardware without bothering to do five minutes of research on it first.

And invariably it seems like the people who leave these kind of reviews claim they have a tech knowledge of 4 or 5.
 
I've heard someone actually cut to size so that the RAM (DDR2 if i remember correctly) will fit in the RAM slot (DDR).
 
Bobby was so enraged he vowed never to use PC's again and the next day he applied to work at the local Genius Bar. The manager said he was the most over qualified applicant he had ever saw.
 
go look at the 1 star reviews for the intel hex-core processors. most of them consist of AMD fanboys bashing intel
 
How did people not vote that as helpful. It clearly shows that for those who wish to upgrade from a pentium 4, it will not fit.
 
Wow I am going to pass this around the office. The day has seemed a little slow with everyone waiting for the weekend. So this will get some people laughing.
