Nice Card for SLI

EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 02G-P4-2670-KR
EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 02G-P4-2670-KR

Pros: Running SLI and has been quite fast. No issues I can think of, did the bios update on the EVGA website. Took maybe 3mins total for me to download and run the update. This is great for 120hz monitors with SLI running to GTX 670's.

Cons: Lucky if you get over 1150mhz on the core.

Overall Review: I really like the way a few other brands look but there are a few reason Ill stick with EVGA - is the customer service. They will answer questions and take ownership when something does go wrong with the card. Customer service is not even the right word for these guys/gals, just unbelievable! EVGA might be the reason I have not gone to AMD/ATi to try there products. When you invest a large amount of money, I like to know that there is some insurance that the Customer Service will have your back.

Most Critical Review

DOA

Pros: Great manual. The board is everything I wanted when doing research on several boards. Might just have been bad luck.

Cons: DOA and it sucks to have to pay for shipping for the RMA.

Overall Review: I am getting a new one when the RMA is approved but might have to wait since these are out of stock.

Bought yet again!

Pros: Cant beat the overall package and price point.

Overall Review: Have a few versions of these, black is nice and the fan works good. Keeping my 9600x cool under 70c all the time even during hours of gaming.

Super fast

Pros: Just surprised how good this actually is. Gaming has been great. Using 212 cooler master, stays under 70c with lower fan profile speed.

Overall Review: Was on sale for 100 off, cant beat the deal with free ram sticks.. Wish I would have bought 2x at this sale!

Great MB, came updated

Pros: Came with updated bios so my 9600x installed so easy. Set the ram profile and all is good. The fan software is funky in the bios at first but liked it after I got the hang for custom curve. Wifi is connecting perfectly.

Overall Review: For the price/sale, really like this mb and the colorway. It has all I need vs the highest end since Im running cpu stock.

Perfect for 1080p

Pros: Using this for 1080p and it is running really smooth and is under 70c always during gaming.

Overall Review: I really like this size and it is super powerful gpu for 1080p. 1440p might look elsewhere.
