CMV650 in Dell 8700
Pros: Perfect fit in Dell 8700 to replace stock 460w. I picked this up after researching the benefits of a higher quality PSU and to install a GTX 970 FTW 2.0. Pleased with how quiet the unit is working. Easy to install.
Cons: Can't think of any.
Overall Review: Rebate influenced my final decision on this one.
GTX 970 FTW 2.0
Pros: At 9.5 inches this was a tight fit in my Dell 8700, but fit without any fuss at all. The performance was what I was expecting. It powers the latest games and came with MGSV (impressed with that game too). My main reason for the GTX 970 was to improve speed with video editing. With my set up (i7 4790, 32gb) I am seeing a huge improvement over the GTX 745 that came standard with the system. I find the GeForce has a simple interface for keeping drivers up-to-date as well. The FTW overclock is true to adverts - quite speedy.
Cons: It has a crashed a few times after extended use. Screen blanks out and forced reboot is needed. Recovered quickly when this happened.
Overall Review: Pricy but worth the expense.
