It's a beast of a processor
Pros: I am very impressed by this processor from amd. at first i was detered from amd because they were cheap but man was i wrong this chip is perfect for mid to high end gaming. just pair it with a 7850 or higher and your good to go
Cons: not really a con but DO NOT USE THE STOCK COOLER. the processor will run very hot as is but when playing games like BF 4 it gets farely hot but with mantle out that shouldn't be problem.
Overall Review: I really love this cpu
Jet Engine Disc Drive
Pros: It read my disc and it wrote to discs. Fo a budget builder i would recommend but if you have $40 extra get a better one.
Cons: Sounds like a jet taking off when booting a disc or just booting you computer.
Very impressed
Pros: I was very surprised at how quiet this fan is. I mean i can barely here over my stock cpu cooler which is saying something.
Cons: none
Overall Review: get this fan for front intake fans because it can get pretty messy and it isn't a pwm fan so i wouldn't use it on a cpu cooler. 4 eggs because it isn't a pwm fan
great for price
Pros: Excellent card, fits in most cases, not very loud, runs most games at ultra as long as you pair it with a decent processor, i recommend a 6350 am3+ vishera six core.
Cons: i bought this card about 3 months before the r9 series was released and if you want to build a pc i would recommend you buy an R9 270.
Great case for the money
Pros: excellent cable management, lots of room, and the price
Cons: One of the front usb ports is bent a little but i am not to worried about it i don't use usb that often.
Overall Review: in my opion, if your really on a tight budget, don't get the glass because its was at the time $20 more than the basic case.
