Pros: 8 ram slots, enough led controls but not too much like some other manufacturers, post led, reinforced SLI slots, nvme slots, good quality,

Cons: took almost 4 months for rebate check to arrive

Overall Review: 1st time trying ASRock & happy with this board, built a powerful video workstation i9-7900 64gbDDR 500GBnvme & raid0 1.7TB 2xHDD for safe storage, everything is stable & works great

worth it

ZOTAC AMP! GeForce GTX 970 4GB DDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card (AMP! Extreme Edition) ZT-90103-10P
ZOTAC AMP! GeForce GTX 970 4GB DDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card (AMP! Extreme Edition) ZT-90103-10P

Pros: Led lightning looks great, green/red, gives out illuminating glow under video card and bright led facing outside, great for cases with transparent side panel. OCed gpu to 1273 which boosts to 1500mhz, ddr to 7600mhz for daily clocks, stock 1203mhz actually boosts to 1430mhz, easily clocks higher. Card is well made, custom pcb, amazing OC potential, big 3fan cooler keeps temperatures low and noise down, firestorm software works great and is easy to use with profiles, fan settings, gpu-z like info etc.

Cons: its big so check for available space, needs two 8pin power connectors

Overall Review: those looking for EXTRA wipped cream, sugar, salt, butter, ketchup, crispy bacon and so on, this is the one gtx 970 that has it all

Thermaltake Core V71 Extreme Full Tower Chassis, Compatible With Extreme Liquid Cooling Builds (CA-1B6-00F1WN-00)
Thermaltake Core V71 Extreme Full Tower Chassis, Compatible With Extreme Liquid Cooling Builds (CA-1B6-00F1WN-00)

Pros: big fans, with filters and blue leds, very water cooling friendly, lots of room behind side panel for wires, lots of slots for hard drives, fan speed low/high control, 4 usb ports on top, lots of space inside in general, very big side window, hdd cages can be taken off or rearranged, additional three 120mm fans can be put on bottom which is also filtered, filters are easy to remove on top and bottom

Cons: front fan filter is not easy to access, 200mm fan airflow is partially restricted by radiator mounting rails

good monitor

AOC q2963Pm Black 29" 5ms HDMI Full HD UltraWide (21:9) LED Backlight LCD 1080P Monitor, IPS Panel 300 cd/m2 50,000,000:1 Built-in Speakers
AOC q2963Pm Black 29" 5ms HDMI Full HD UltraWide (21:9) LED Backlight LCD 1080P Monitor, IPS Panel 300 cd/m2 50,000,000:1 Built-in Speakers

Pros: good colors, great in games but depends on game support, some games require manual software tweaking to adjust to correct aspect ratio, using two browsers side by side helps multitasking, awesome for movies, few youtube videos do fill screen completely by using aspect ratio 21:9 and it looks great

Cons: monitor itself(not screen) doesn't seem to use quality good looking materials but at this price range don't expect it to look like an elegant thousand bucks cinema tv

Overall Review: had to RMA had small area of around 7 dead pixels,, more like destroyed pixels, black in color, called NEWEGG they were helpful,process was smooth everything is fine
