Cougar Case Fans

COUGAR CF-V12H Vortex Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing (Fluid) 300,000 Hours 12CM Silent Cooling Fan
COUGAR CF-V12H Vortex Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing (Fluid) 300,000 Hours 12CM Silent Cooling Fan

Pros: Incredibly well put together and very amazing when being used for an orange build. Moves a solid amount of air and Cougar is a well respected brand. Don't really see the cons of this product.

Cons: No serious issues. The rubber pieces that come with it are not super strong, but if handled carefully, they should be fine.

Overall Review: If you are looking for radiator fans, or just case fans, and you don't mind the orange look, than go for it. These are a great buy.

Most Critical Review

Turned my mother off to custom built PC's forever.

GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P (rev. 2.0) AM3+/AM3 AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Good price for a board, got it about a year ago on sale. Solid construction, and honestly every port is operational. Gigabyte's customer service has always been kind to me, and I love them for it.

Cons: Will not run more than an hour without freezing and locking up. My mother has lost important information and work related documents due to this issue. I've built a good number of PC's, and am even running a fully custom water loop in my X-99 build. Don't let this one bad example ruin your thoughts on Gigabyte. I have had rock solid products with the SOC-Champion and other boards through them. This one is just a very interesting example of technological issues. It just will not work. Steer clear and get yourself a more expensive board, one that doesn't give you unneeded headaches.

Overall Review: Honestly no. I cannot recommend this board. I love gigabyte. They have been incredibly kind to me in the past. I will remain a loyal customer in the future. I just cannot justify getting this board (Or any for that matter) that does not offer rock solid performance.
