Pros: Placed on my i5-3570K ( non overclocked ) Using Arctic Silver 5 and using the "Grain of rice " Method. Price is good, I got it on a 5$ discount with 5$ Rebate, making my total 20.00$ for this cooler. Idles at 25C-30C Depending on the room temperature. Been Playing GTA4 On high 4AA View and detail Distance 50. 50. ( HIGH SETTINGS ) My temps have not gone above 43C ( 111F ), even after gaming for a couple hours. Battlefield3 Also everything on high, Has not gone above 43C ( 111F ) even after couple hours of gaming. Currently running in a Push configuration with 120MM exhausting from the back and a 240MM Exhausting from the top, Planning on adding a second fan soon to the cooler. Before this cooler i was using the Stock Intel Fan. It ran my Temperatures from 160F ( 71C ) - 170F ( 76C ) and that was with Shadows off, AA Off, SOA OFF, ETC. If i had run everything on high, i think i would of started to hit 175F+. This cooler has allowed me to use my CPU in High gaming settings without worrying about my CPU getting too hot. .

Cons: It is slightly louder than the intel stock fan at full speed. Which is not too bad. It sits about 10 Feet away from me...You can tell there are fans running..But you wouldn't notice it when you are gaming. Installing it was the worst part of all...The Bolts on the back plate don't really screw on properly, Some tend to tighten only half a turn or two...making the Screws on the other end offset. You have to be Patient and careful when installing and tighten little by little. I would recommend watching Various YouTube Tutorials on how to fasten those bolts. It Took me over and hour since i was trying to careful as to not damage my Motherboard. The Cooler Swivels when you are trying to tighten it onto the Motherboard so try and hold it in place gently...even after fastening the screws, it still swivels...but it takes a bit of force to make it do so. But it is secure, no need to worry. I hope Cooler master never uses this fastening design ever again, there is a potential of damaging your motherboard if you are not patient or have a helping hand, i wouldn't recommend this to first time builders. I knock off an egg due to the mounting design they use, Could have been so much simpler. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes to mount a cooler without having to worry of damaging your motherboard.

Overall Review: This is an amazing cooler for the price, The performance is outstanding. There is even potential for overclocking this to around 4.2 GHZ id say. Any more than that i would get a water cooled design or a high end 100$ Heat sink designed for such tasks. Installing the back plate is way too much work than it should be, would not recommend for a first time builder. If you are a first time builder, take it into a trusted PC shop and have them assist you. Or call an experienced trusted friend, or just buy a different cooler.

Pros: -MSI Color design and cooling. This is the quieter of the RX480 versions. -Stays very cool in the case and the overall noise is quite low -Plays games at High To Ultra Settings at 60FPS or more, depending on the game.

Cons: -The only con i found was the Color changing software, it causes the card to display artifacts on screen, if you don't run the color control software the issues go away. I'm sure this could be remedies through an update but i decided to just uninstall it.

Overall Review: I bought this for someone else system build, they are happy with it as it was a great upgrade from what they were using before, looks awesome and performs well, really glad about the deal i got it for. I def recommend this card if you are able to pick one up.

Pros: Really nice motherboard, Great Features and options. nearly as much as a full ATX MB.

Cons: I had Received one of these in a Giveaway contest by MSI. I was unable to use it for myself so i sold it to another person. That person told me that 3 of the ram slots were DEAD, they would not register. I am really disappointed that MSI would send me a faulty piece of hardware. I have owned Other MSI products in the Past ( Video Card and MB ) It just really sucks that the received product is basically not of much use. I understand that this happens but it appears to be a common problem with MSI and people receiving Dead on Arrival products or faulty hardware.

Overall Review: Aside from MSI Sending a faulty piece of hardware, if it were fully functional this would be one amazing MB, I may just go with ASUS for my next MB after reading some reviews on here and MSI being the first company to send me a product that won't function properly. If it works its amazing, but yeah. I hope its not too common with this company because they make some really nice Motherboards and i'd like to be a returning customer.

Pros: So far so good, Its been less than 48 hours but no problems, Came with the MB. Timings are all running as advertised. Reads 7.8 on WEI out of 7.9 total points System Specs: 8GB Gskill Ares MSI GD65 Z77 i5-3570K ( Stock ) MSI GTX560 ( Non TI ) 535W Antec 900 1T HD

Cons: Nothing so far.

Overall Review: Looks nice and is low profile, I just plugged in and was ready to go...I was thinking something would go wrong because thats how my previous syste was, it was always having problems and i was suprised when i made my new system....that i did not have to go back and check wires etc....everything ran on first boot.

Pros: So far so good, Runs smooth, Very notable difference in frame rates in games. I upgraded from an IntelCore2 E6750 and the differnce is amazing. Reads 7.6 on WEI. My Ram Reads 7.8 and my GPU Reads 7.7 I have not overclocked yet because my Coolermaster heatsink was missing the correct brackets!, So i had to install the stock cooler for now! The stock cooler runs very Cool on idle about 27C(80F) The 4 cores range from 12C-22C while runnings a few windows open etc. I ran it on battlefield 3 with 1600X1200 on medium low settings and the CPU was hitting around 50-60C after 10 minutes So i would defenatly recommend gettng an aftermarket cooler if you plan on Running this on max settngs for a few hours. The stock cooler can handle it but the temps would probably be reachng 70+C. From what ive read and seen on youtube. So to Re-cap, Its good a great CPU. I Recommend an Aftermarket Cooler if you plan to do higher end gaming for extended hours. In the past 3 months it has gone on sale about 3 times, so if you are looking to save 15-20$ then look for those deals. I picked mine up for 215$.

Cons: Stock coolers are good for basic use and maybe some casual gaming but i would Recommend getting an After market cooler if you plan on using it for high gaming settings or if you game for several hours. Even at stock speeds. But this is not really a Con, just a Preferense.

Overall Review: System Specs: i5-3570K 3.4ghz(Stock) MSI GD65-Z77 MB 8GB Gskills Ares 1600 Ram 1TB Hardrive ( 7200 RPM ) Samsung DVD drive ( Standard ) MSI GTX560 ( Non Ti ) 535W power supply ( Old ) Antec 900 Case
