Pros: Well I've only had this board for three weeks as of now. I had made sure I've updated everything before doing any real testing. I can play all my games almost maxed out( bio shock infinite, far cry3, bf3 and so on). The only thing I haven't tested yet is crossfire but that is coming up real soon. My cpu is fx8350 not oc. Ram is patriot viper red 1600mhz at 16gb kit and for now one HD7970 oc edition with 3gb ddr5 ram will be getting a second to really be able to push my games. I will update when I get it. I have no true reason to test the over clock genie due to the fact I see no reason to oc anything Iam already getting 4GhZ out of the cpu and the hd7970 is a beast of a gpu not oc so second I should be fine.

Cons: There are no cons I can see except wish this board had 990 chipset but oh well price is nice

Pros: nice design cool color certain games love it

Cons: others games didnt work

Overall Review: well if I play a game like gta5 works well. Rayman legends crippled this card couldn't go pass 30fps or in street fighter 5 and games of the like. the crazy part put back in my hd7970's and the game just works full frames no issues

Pros: I like the board layout and extra sata ports are nice

Cons: I thought my psu had died. I tried it in the other two pc's I have and all worked like a champ So I took it out the case and set it up with the bare minimum cpu, cpu cooler one stick ram and one ssd and same it will boot show my operating system for one second and then shutdown in three some time five seconds. Tried the ssd on my other two rigs and worked fine. also tried the ram on the other two same result all worked fine. I went through every thing made sure there are no shorts so it has to be the board even reseated the psu that I tried in another rig that worked fine. parts used fx8350 patriot viper red ram 4 gig 1600mhz (total of 4) 1300 watt psu by evga and ocz vertex 3 90gig ssd. So will be RMA this one after going through that

Overall Review: Weird thing is I put back in the MSI 970A-G46 that I wanted to upgrade and all works fine. I guess msi missed the ball with this one

Pros: well I have owned this drive over a month so far and well works great. I got this lesser than what it is now thanks to a promotion. Ive had no problem works really quick and didn't give me issue time will tell if this will last but I bought the warranty so not worried

Cons: none so far

Overall Review: should have bought vertex 3 for quicker load time. I can't say vertex 2 isn't fast iam happy with the speed iam getting

Pros: didnt have to install any drive like some say for windows xp and work right out the box new egg even made sure it was secure for delivery

Cons: besides the light thing when burning none

Pros: well I first have to give new egg some credit for delivery second I am trying this burnere as i type and every things seems to be Going ok(it burnt the dvd in 8min to my other 30 min a ok to me)

Cons: none that I see but the light doesnt turn color to let you now its burning
