Pros: It's significantly better than my 660 Ti in every way. Temperature is good under full load; hasn't exceeded 70°C with 67% fan speed. A neat feature of this GPU is that the fans don't start spinning until it reaches a certain temp, so they'll last a very long time. I'll definitely be using this card until the next-gen consoles come out.

Cons: If I have to say anything, its performance in 4K isn't amazing (in big titles). Doesn't matter to me. 1080p is still a great res.

Overall Review: There is talk about coil whine. I haven't heard anything. There is controversy about its memory. I can't saying anything about that since I haven't had 3.5 GB reached yet. This GPU, paired with a G-Sync monitor, is a great experience! I tried to use PhysX in Borderlands 2, hoping I'd get to enjoy the extra eye-candy at smooth fps, but unfortunately Borderlands 2 has awful optimization when PhysX is enabled. On the other hand, Killing Floor 2 shows huge improvement over my previous GPU.

Pros: Nice graphics. Looks like fun if it was playable.

Cons: Very painful install process! Uplay temporarily banned me for using the wrong code, which was in my email that I found after I got banned. 1 hour later... yay it works. But the pain's not over! The optimization alone made me uninstall it with FIRE! Perfect example of a broken game right here. You might as well burn it when you see it included in your combo.

Overall Review: If you're going to include a highly anticipated game with a med-high range video card, test if the motherf-er works please! Specs: ASRock A790GXH/128M Phenom II X4 940 @ 3.5 GHz EVGA GTX 660 Ti G.Skill & Mushkin 4GB (4x1GB) Antec 520W

Pros: It's basically a 1070 Ti with support for DLSS and ray tracing. Runs every game I care about really well (e.g. Titanfall 2, Wreckfest, Batman Arkham Knight, Black Mesa, Steep, GOW 2018, RE Village, Trackmania 2020, and more) and even some retro games modded with ray tracing such as Quake and Mario 64. I'm grateful to have this gpu. Its 8GB of VRAM is much appreciated over my old 970's 3.5GB (fast) + 0.5GB (slow) VRAM. Temps are cooler than my 970's, and that's with a little overclock.

Cons: Can't think of any cons about this gpu. But I do have concerns about MSI's software Afterburner. I worry about the future of this super useful tool. It's a major reason why I went with MSI. I really hope they don't stop maintaining it. The updates need to keep coming.

Overall Review: Very nice gpu. It's a beast for 8th-gen games and an absolute MONSTER for 7th-gen. Easy to recommend for $250-300.

Pros: Owned for 2 years without any issue.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Just ordered another pair to make my rig 16GB. Hopefully they'll stop BF1 from stuttering on occasion.

Pros: I bought this for my wife because she wanted a laptop that can handle everyday tasks smoothly. This one is perfect for her. The SSD really speeds up things. Booting up into Windows takes like 8 seconds. The unmentioned video processor happens to be an Intel HD 4000, which should be able to run older games and newer non-heavy games. I've hardly touched the laptop, so I can't say much about it except that my wife is happy with it.

Cons: Too soon to tell.

Overall Review: It should come in handy on trips. I can continue working on my guitar tabs while I'm away from my beasty desktop pc, or play Shovel Knight...

Pros: I've only had this monitor for a few hours and I love it! I was lucky to have found it at this unbeatable price! I've never owned a TN panel before, so at first I was a bit worried about its colors and view angles (like I've seen on laptops), but to my surprise, colors and view angles are nowhere nearly as bad. Perfectly fine for games and movies. 144 Hz and 1ms response time are insane! I never want to go back to 60 Hz or 75 Hz again. It's ruined me within the few hours I've had it (I knew it would). G-Sync is pretty much how I expected it to be: Excellent at high framerates (over 80) and okay-ish at low framerates (35-40 fps). I didn't expect it to magically make low fps feel snappy, just like with V-Sync disabled on a regular monitor, it doesn't feel good no matter what, but G-Sync is wonderful when used at high fps. It even works well in borderless windowed games such as The Evil Within. ULMB is a cool feature for competitive players. I don't see myself using it much since it darkens the screen a bit and can't be used along with G-Sync. I tried it out and Wow... Blurs be dämned! I'm very pleased with the time of shipping. Not a single scratch on the screen.

Cons: Fedex left the box in plain sight. Typical!

Overall Review: This is THE monitor to get if your PC isn't exactly high-end. Medium rigs will benefit greatly with graphics settings turned down. This monitor makes my GTX 660 Ti look more bad-äss lol. Next week I'll have my 970. My face is gonna explode.
