Most Favorable Review

Very happy

Intel Core i7-4960X - Core i7 4th Gen Ivy Bridge-E 6-Core 3.6GHz (Turbo 4GHz) LGA 2011 130W Desktop Processor - BX80633i74960X
Intel Core i7-4960X - Core i7 4th Gen Ivy Bridge-E 6-Core 3.6GHz (Turbo 4GHz) LGA 2011 130W Desktop Processor - BX80633i74960X

Pros: Runs cool. Temps are 32-37C running at 4600 at 1.346V. Pared with EVGA X79 Dark Motherboard and for cooling using Swiftech H320. Very Fast

Cons: Price, Price, Price

Overall Review: So far very happy running this chip. Upgraded from 3770K for the 2 extra cores. Gets 4 stars just due to price. Would have been a 5 star otherwise

Got a good one first try

Acer XB270HU bprz Black 27'' 144 Hz WQHD G-SYNC Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor IPS 350 cd/m2 1,000:1

Pros: G-Sync, 144Hz and Pretty big screen

Cons: A little bezel light bleed in upper and lower right hand side of screen

Overall Review: Bought this with wondering, like many, will I get dead pixels. I am happy to report I do not have any dead pixels. I do have a little light bleed by the bezel on one side but it really does not bother me any. Only reason I am writing this is to make aware there are some people that do not get dead pixels. It pretty much a lotto if you do but they may be doing a better QA on the monitors.
