With Bulldozer architecture, this AMD FX-8350 FD8350FRHKBOX processor easily handles multiple intensive applications. The 32-nanometer die shrink is designed to reduce leakage for improved performance, increased clock rate headroom and better thermals.

Works well, though might want slightly faster

This works well. I am using it on a home-built computer that is primarily used for graphics intensive (CAD) work.
I will be honest that, in hindsight, I might have liked to have gone with a faster processor, but this one is still faster than any of my other systems and I am happy with it.
Good value for the money (especially if you price match).

Works great, with no issues

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased this for a home-built computer (my first one). The power supply works great, with no issues. Not really much more that can be said. It does what it's meant to do, and powers a fairly powerful desktop built for running graphics intensive (CAD) programs.
DO take advantage of Best Buy's pricematch guarantee on this one.

Mostly very good

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased this for a home built computer that didn't have a wireless card, so needed this for access to the internet (and our home network).
Initially, there were some issues with this connecting, with it sometimes connecting, sometimes not; it turned out that the device was not always checked as being active.
Corrected this, and it has been working great since. To be honest, I couldn't say whether this is an issue with the device, or something else in the home built computer. I can say that, since this issue was resolved, this has been working great and has provided surprisingly high speeds.
I do recommend this product, and am a fan of ASUS products in general.

Great deal
on July 14, 2017
Posted by: Blackrock
Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed a new battery for an electronic pair of calipers, so looked to see which stores carried it in my area. A well-known office supply store was charging $5 for a single battery (this is a somewhat rare size, so drug stores don't tend to carry it). I found this 3-pack at Best Buy, with three for only about 2 dollars more than getting one at other retailers.
Great deal, and so far the battery has lasted and works great.

Surprisingly good for the money
on March 20, 2017
Posted by: Blackrock
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this for my son, and didn't completely know what to expect.
It's Best Buy's brand, so I was a little concerned, but it was on sale for an excellent price, so I decided to chance it.
My son loves it.
He said the volume is excellent, with no issues.
He has owned other blutooth headsets before, including expensive ones, but they didn't stay in his ears well. He said that this one stays in with no problem.
He uses it at the gym while working out, at home while playing XBox, and he just in general tends to wear it while walking around and doing things (like dishes...).

Simple, clean looking, and it works well
on January 23, 2017
Posted by: Blackrock
Verified Purchase:Yes
This doesn't have a crazy amount of features, but it works very well. It doesn't have a charger, but has USB connectors and a spot to rest your phone while charging.
The big draw for me is what it is primarily meant to be: An alarm clock. It has good settings for this, and works well. Builds up volume so it genuinely wakes you up, instead of just annoying you and making you hit snooze.

My son loves this game; plays online with friends
on December 2, 2016
Posted by: Blackrock
Verified Purchase:Yes
My son recently purchased this game and has been playing it a lot, really enjoying it. I believe he previously played an older version, but says that the updates are well worth it.
I'm not sure how replayable the game is solo, but he says good things about playing online with friends.

The days of primitive joysticks and wheel paddles are long gone. Modern gaming requires a precise, responsive and comfortable controller, and the Xbox 360 stands right on the cutting edge.

Experience thrilling gameplay with the new standard in wired controllers.The Xbox 360 Controller features compact ergonomics for comfortable play and accommodates gamers of all sizes and skill levels. The centralized Xbox Guide button provides you with instant access to your digital movies, music and games at just the touch of a glowing button. Adjustable vibration feedback results in a more personalized gaming experience, and the unit works with most Windows Vista-based PCs in addition. An integrated port accepts the Xbox 360 headset, and the extended 9' cable lets you sit a comfortable distance from the screen. The next generation of gaming and entertainment is here.

You know what you're getting

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good, solid product here. Works well, and no complaints based on what you would expect.
Sometimes my son uses this and gets angry at the game and... well... these things don't like to be thrown at the wall. Doesn't end well. For the controller, or for the wall.
However, that's not what these are meant for, and not what the user should be doing.
You know what you're getting with this, and as long as you avoid fits of rage, these last.

Very good monitor for the price
on October 31, 2016
Posted by: Blackrock
Verified Purchase:Yes
So far, I'm very happy with this monitor. I use it as one of two monitors on my desk, extending my screen across both. I have no complaints about it at all.
Are there higher resolution ones with quicker refresh out there? Sure. However, they also cost a lot more.
For my normal daily use, this is great, no concerns.
It's possible that for some really high resolution games I might notice the refresh rate, but it hasn't bothered me yet.
Definitely worth the price.

Very good new start, but some small issues
on May 11, 2016
Posted by: Blackrock
Verified Purchase:Yes
I think this movie was very well done and did a solid job of re-starting the Star Wars franchise and a new trilogy.
The truth is, it really is a copy of Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope.
However, that didn't really bother me. In fact, I think that was a good way to go, cementing what the writer/director has going on here.
There are definitely a few plot holes (or, maybe more accurately, issues with the plot). Try to ignore those, and just have fun going along for the ride.
