incredible!
Pros: Biggest pro is cost to power ratio. I absolutly love this cpu, with air cooling i can have it stable at 4GHz at 42c. This cpu in combo with 2 500g caviar blacks i have in a raid 0, my comp is blazing fast. anyone who wants an excellent pc go amd.
Cons: The heatsink and fan it comes with work fine, but this is a black edition afterall, if you overclock just a small amount with basic cooling the most you can get is 3.6-3.7GHz
Overall Review: been going with amd for over 15 years now, love em
wishfull thinking
Pros: The heat sinks work as specified
Cons: refuses to work at 1066, only the default 800mhz, i flashed my motherboard bio but it didnt do anything. blue screens after 3mins running even at correct timing and voltage.
Overall Review: this is a side note, but i chose this ram rather then other ram that cost less, for the futuremark bundle. and despite trying to enter the code dozens of times it still says the number is already active. leading me to beleive someone somewhere along the way opened the box and re sealed it.... newegg ive bought thousands of dollars of stuff from ya and im getting burnt on software keys?
Strongly suggest this product
Pros: This is the 2nd Corsair mechanical keyboard mouse combo I bought the mouse is a white k65. I finally retired my previous Corsair mechanical keyboard and after registering my Corsair mouse and keyboard with Corsair. On several occasions over the 5 year warranty with Corsair they sent me a replacement keyboard and mouse brand new and upgraded to the newer version for free. And I didnt even have to pay shipping. The keyboard and Corsair mouse I bought are newer versions of the previous versions I already owned but had seen 5 years of usage. Buy the keyboard or the k65 mouse for two reasons. Firstly the products are amazing and secondly after registering the keyboard or mouse Corsairs replacement if they break is incredible.
Overall Review: My previous k65 over the 5 years I used it I dropped it repeatedly and Corsair sent me a brand new replacement free with free shipping. I love the bindable buttons. In cod black ops Cold War you can bind clicking the left and right button press multiple times to the sniper thumb button so that when running akimbo dual pistols a single thumb press fires both pistols how ever many times you want to record to the sniper button.
Incredible with great support

Cons: Expensive but considering how good the replacement is well worth it.
Overall Review: Very good
very good but only if its not doa
Pros: incredible overclocker great performance at price point
Cons: i purchased a card last winter and it arived doa, the replacement has been rock steady since, when i bought a 2nd card for crossfire it arived doa 3 times straight before a working card arived. amd is not properly testing and binning the chipsets.....
Glad i Bought this
Pros: Although i just purchased this from newegg last week, i already have another running in a dif computer that i purchased at a local store. It has been reliable and has provided consistent voltages to my overclocked rig. Im very happy with it
Cons: none that im aware of.
Overall Review: I bought this to replace a Kingwin mach 1 700watt PSu, after the kingpin fried my ram mobo and literally melted a hard drive. after hearing from kingpin that it was impossible for there PSU to have allowed that to happen and that they will have to consider if they will honor their warranty that i am still supposed to be covered under....how could the power get from the wall socket to the computer parts that were fried? ah thats right the power goes through the power supply first. thanks kingpin lets just hope you at least honor your warranty and replace the burnt PSU...
