Pros: Very Fast.

Cons: Difficult firmware update procedure. Most people get an SSD for their operating system drive and the OCZ firmware update doesn't allow firmware update on the OPSYS drive. I thought that was pretty bad of OCZ because they released more than one firmware for this product.

Overall Review: With the 2.15 firmware this SSD is fast and has no issues what so ever. I thought I had a recover from sleep issue, but that wasn't a Vertex 3 problem. I tested with an SSD that had a Marvel controller and it also locked on sleep recovery. The problem ended up being Intel RST driver paired with incorrect BIOS.

Pros: Solid build, backlit keys, good wrist rest, all mechanical keys, built in USB 2.0 hub, audio pass thru

Cons: Have 2 of these. Had the one I was using have keys stop working and put in RMA for replacement. They sent me a replacement board that had many keys that did not work. They had me send back again. They sent me one that was even worse and now don't respond to email when I request a good replacement. I think they have QA and stock issues. They also had paint coming off of key caps. They sent me entire set of replacement keys. I had to do all the work to replace. Believe me when I tell you "that is a lot of work!" I couldn't move my hand when I was done. Cramps!

Overall Review: All and all a good keyboard if you can get a good one out of them and IF the would provide working replacement when you don't. Can't believe the game they are playing with me to get a good replacement!

Pros: The gaming was obviously improved, better image quality all the time as the card keeps up with the game now. I don't work anymore, but I do some video post processing work for personal reasons and this card is way-way faster than the Titan X Pascal (I've seen comparisons putting the 4070 TI at 2x as fast or 100% improvement and it does seem to proof out)

Cons: I don't like that it's not an RTX 4090 for this price, I can't even believe the price gouging going on with the RTX 4090.

Overall Review: If you're like me and still running a GPU from 2016 you'd be very happy with an RTX 4070 TI. Sure it's not an RTX 4090, but you could build 3 whole computers for what they want for an RTX 4090.

Pros: - Very stable - Good add on USB 3.1 controller - USB Type C support

Cons: - only 1 M.2 Socket 3 - only 1 2 pin thermal sensor

Overall Review: I'd recommend this board for running CPUs the require X99 chipset or to get maximum speed from a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4, NVMe SSD. I'd buy this again if I was going to continue using my my current CPU Intel Core i7-5930K. I've been thinking about a new build moving up to one of the new Intel i9 processors, but I'm getting sticker shock. I'd recommend that ASUS start thinking about options for more M.2 Socket 3 connectivity and I see they have in new boards. More than 1 thermal sensor would a good idea too.

Pros: This was exactly as described and pictured. You'd be surprised how many of these exact parts are advertised and pictured only to receive something not as described or pictured.

Cons: None that I have been able to see. This was purchased as a second part just like it to pair with it in a dual slot memory configuration laptop which has worked perfect for.

Pros: I've loved ROG parts and this is not my first. The AI Suite that lets me change my overclock with software without having to reboot the machine I just love. No one else offers you that. I'm not sure why others had issues, but my install went without any issue. Great board, best I've had yet.

Cons: Price is high. You get what you pay for though.

Overall Review: I don't understand all the complaints on this part. This is a great system board. I'm seeing eye candy in Battlefield 4 now that I've never seen before. Full 16x 16x SLI thanks to 40 Pcie lanes from i7-5930k really helps a lot. BF4 never looked so good or played so smooth. So worth the price!
