1 out of 5 eggsFailed after 1 & 1/2 months

Pros: Was incredibly fast and stable.

Cons: It began to crash when launching 3d applications after about a month & 1/2 of use, never overclocked. Sent to Asus 2 weeks ago in full packaging, received card back lightly bubble wrapped and loose in a brown box. No original packaging was returned. Card returned with same problem, crashes when launching any 3d app. Now I am without original packaging and still have a non working card. I swapped in a friends Titan and there was no issue. I have been on phone for a total of 3 hours with support and now they are going to test the card again, after I send it to them again.

1 out of 5 eggsDefective

Pros: seems fast, 4tb

Cons: The drive has 764436.5 MB or 746.52 GB of "unallocated" disk space that I cant partition it. I called Western Digital and the guy on the phone said i should return it for exchange from the store I bought it from. Lots of bad reviews here hence because 4 tb on a single disk, i still gave it a try., but failed. Newegg was big help, easy RMA, but w/o shoprunner you will have to pay return shipping.

4 out of 5 eggsFantastic so far!

Pros: Clear, nice color, DVI port, external AC/DC adapter, allowing thinner design. Also very light.

Cons: Pixel density a bit low for its size.

Other Thoughts: This monitor is exceptional, in my opinion. I wish the resolution were higher, considering the size of the screen. The standard 1920x1080 resolution of this monitor stretched over 27" makes for a relatively low pixel density. However, that considered, the sharpness of the monitor is still great. Unless you are sitting a foot away from it, it shouldn't bother you.

4 out of 5 eggsYou're buying a budge case here, keep that in mind.

Pros: The price is incredible, and the value really cannot be beat. There are better cases out there, but you'll pay more for them.

The power supply CAN be replaced. Don't listen to the uneducated people who think this thing should be gold plated because of the premium price. I haven't had to replace mine yet, but it's pretty easy to find a miniITX or MicroATX power supply.

Cons: It's not gold plated

Other Thoughts: Seriously, people. For 30 bucks, you have very little right to complain unless it just falls apart on you.

5 out of 5 eggsno issues, awesome curvature and designs

Pros: Awesome case. Solid, yet comfy. The design is sick as hell and the curvature on the back helps with shock absorption.

Cons: Dust caps are small and easy to lose due to no attachment to the case.
The lock button is takes a little extra effort although i got used to it quick. (Maybe i have hulk fingers idk) haha

Other Thoughts: Awesome case nontheless!! I wouldnt pick any other for the price!

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Monitors

Pros: - Great color quality
- Nice adjustment options
- 5ms = nice responsive display
- Nice BRIGHT image
- Built in speakers

Cons: Although I put the speakers down as a pro, the sound quality out of them is pretty low. But then again... What do you expect for built in speakers?

Other Thoughts: We purchased 24 of these monitors for our graphic design department (2 per workstation). They replaced some very ancient CRT monitors and our designers could not be happier with these monitors. These are being used to design ads and do layout for a newspaper, so color reproduction is a very big deal and these monitors are about as close as we can get to what is coming off of our printing press, without spending 10x more per screen.

Been considering stealing a couple of these off of the designers desks for my desk!

5 out of 5 eggsFast

Pros: Fast.
Not too large.

Cons: Cap can easily get lost.

Other Thoughts: Many thumb drives are marked as USB 3.0, but some of them are no faster than USB 2.0 or 1.1 High Speed ones.
This is the real deal, with very fast write speeds, and not just for sequential data, but also for random data.

5 out of 5 eggssweetness for less

Pros: fanfuckingtastic. You cannot buy a better card for the money. This thing runs skyrim almost completely maxed out with 20 mods, and they are some pretty crazy mods. I say almost maxed just because the shadows have to be decreased from ultra to high, then i get my full 60 frames. I'm running an i72700k with it and they work beautifully. As for recent games, its pretty good with Bioshock infinite, near maxed out, but I think in SLI you would have noo problem. Borderlands 2 I have also almost maxed, I play all my games at 1080p so it's not the best but they are really close. For 170 bucks, you can't go wrong. I guess you could buy a gtx Titan for a grand, but then you'd just be screwing yourself cause you could have just gotten 2 of these.

Cons: I hate that it didn't come with Tomb Raider, some other gtx cards did at the time when I bought this, and it seems pretty suckalicious that their newest card wouldn't come with a new game. I got a bunch of in game money for a bunch of sucktastic games I'll never play.

Other Thoughts: i used to have 2 gtx 560ti's, this beats them and just uses one card. If you buy 2, you'll be happy.

also, i had to revise some swearwords. I think if you've got a few hundred bucks to spend here i can say words like S-U-C-K
