Coil Whine [Solved] Great Card For Price

Pros: - Performance for the price was great bought the card for $230.00 - No issue running most games on Ultra/High - Plug & Play

Cons: - The coil whine on this card is awful. I never noticed coil whine on any of my graphics cards before. I fixed this issue easily though. * Fix for coil whine - All you need to do is go into your Radeon graphics settings. Lock the FPS to 60FPS and it should fix it. I noticed when I played games where the car would get well over 100FPS the coil whine would be bad but when it dipped down closer to 60FPS there wasn't an issue.

Cons: You get what you pay for.

Great stuff!

Pros: Just upgraded my macbook pro early 2011 model with this memory from 4gigs of ram. It is way faster and more responsive. Can multi task like a champ now.

Cons: None.

Pros: Instantly picks up drive as if it were a external USB Hard Drive.

Cons: Software will not copy Mac Hard Drives that are partitioned with boot camp installed. So you can't clone a exact copy of your Mac/bootcamp partition all in one go.

Slowww

Pros: Price, and Lifetime warranty.

Cons: Slow read and write speeds.

Overall Review: I'm going to try to do some modifications like formatting as suggested in other reviews to try to speed it up some. Lifetime warranty is a plus. (If I don't lose it.) Wish I would have listened to everyone saying it was slow but some reviews said it was fast and the price got me.

Decent.
