Pros: Blazing fast Fits well in a full tower Easy to overclock Not as hot as I thought it would be Price went down right before i bought it (heh)

Cons: Still runs a little hotter than i'd like it to Stock cooler is average at best Fan is effectively a vaccuum at anything about 75%. At least I can use it as an excuse to ignore people

Overall Review: I was really pleasantly surprised when i installed this card into my new rig. Slid right in, no driver or installation problems. It also runs a lot cooler than i expected it to, 70-72c at load with stock clocks in my HAF 932, which leads to my next point. This card overclocks like a dream, at least for me. Easily running at speeds that pass those of the 480 without coming anywhere near what i would consider "dangerous" (e.g. 85-90c), even under load while overclocked (730/1460/1850 fan at 80%). Needless to say, this card provides an excellent value, and with EVGA's lifetime warrantee (which, i checked, does extend even to self-overclocked cards, as long as they weren't overclocked "recklessly" as i believe i saw it stated) there isn't much to worry about, no matter what this card is put through.

Pros: -Comfortable -Not too expensive -Decent responsiveness -"Extra" function keys can be useful

Cons: -Poor signal quality -Low durability/longevity (see other thoughts)

Overall Review: I had an old Microsoft Comfort Keyboard 3000 that i had used for something like 5 years. It didn't stop working but the receiver was huge and eventually i left it at home in mid August when going off to school and decided to replace it instead of waiting to get it. The K350 was fairly priced and had similar ergonomics to the 3000, along with being readily available) so i picked it up. It worked flawlessly until around a moth ago. For the most part it would infrequently not respond then suddenly spit out all the characters that had been typed while it was frozen. Last week it started to infrequently just not work and today it finally died. That's ~6 months from shelf to trash can, after my previous mid-range keyboard lasted around 5 years and was, in comparison, abused. I went with a Corsair K90 to replace it. Hopefully that'll last me forever.

Pros: - Blisteringly fast. I'm only running 1080p but this card can push most games well past 100fps on the highest settings. DOOM runs at a consistent 144fps with very occasional drops and Witcher 3 and MGSV are a cakewalk. Getting a Vive soon so I can't comment on VR performance yet. - Very quiet for the performance. Maybe it's just because I'm used to an old 7970 but this thing is virtually silent. Fans shut off entirely under light load which is great when you have a PWM system as it leads to nearly silent idle across the entire system. Even at full tilt, if you manage to ever push it that hard, the noise is very reasonable. - Value. Of course I don't mean this in an absolute sense. There are powerful cards with better performance per dollar. But when I bought this card it was the same price as the SC1 before a $30 rebate I received from a third party. Hard to beat for $680.

Cons: - High entry price, but what did you expect for a 1080 Ti? (as of the time of writing) I would've liked if it was solid black/white. Not a huge fan of the silver fan shroud.

Overall Review: Imo this is one of the best deals you can get if you want to go all out on a 1080 Ti. It runs with zero hiccups, you get EVGA's great warranty behind it, and it looks pretty nice considering how wonky and "gamer" a lot of non-reference cards can get.
