Perfect performance and looks great!
Pros: -Works well -Inexpensive! -Looks great
Cons: None so far.
Pros: -Still a powerful card that runs everything on Ultra -Good price to performance ratio -Quiet and cool
Cons: -They intentionally lied about it having 4GB of DDR5, only 3.5 is accessible at full speed, and they got caught -They have no ability to fix it, it's not a bug -Deceitful and misleading claims about their product and no compensation for it
Great SSD thus far
Pros: -Fast -Sleek looking -Works fast -No drivers required -Boots Windows in 5 seconds
Cons: -None so far
Overall Review: Pricey, but probably the fastest and most durable SSD on the market.
Great CPU, no complaints
Pros: -Fast -Cool -Turbos to 3.9 and easily overclocked to 4.4+ w/ aftermarket cooler -Nice OC'ing features from Intel Extreme Tuning software
Cons: -Weak, ugly stock fan
Good Price-to-Performance Ratio
Pros: -Looks great -Barebones cable management gets job done on a budget -Sturdy construction -Nice side panel window -Large GPUs like the GTX 970 fit -Dust filter on 2 intakes -Worked well enough for first build
Cons: -Atrocious, inept manual -Almost broke my 970 trying to put it in... you need to remove an additional plate top plate that has 2 screws in it above and beyond the 2 PCI-E backpanels that you need to remove -- took me an hour to figure it out, then installed easily -No spacing at the top of the case for CPU power cable or fan cables... no idea how I'm going to fit 2 extra fans up there if I'm ever going to SLI -Lacks a bit of width... my GPU power cable hits the window and is uncomfortably squeezed
Overall Review: Good case, got what I paid for... I think next time I'll buy something with a bit more cable management space in back and at the top of the case, and with rubber grommets, but that's my fault, not Corsairs. The manual, however, is just ridiculously bad. The removal of the top plate to put in PCI cards like the GPU is not explained at all, and can easily lead to you breaking something worth hundreds of dollars.
Great mobo, easy install
Pros: -SLI support -Optical out for my 5.1 Surround Sound -Looks fantastic, especially w/ red/black products -Easy to install -Good instruction manual -Well-built parts -Wonderful BIOS screen -Supports OC'ing
Cons: -Youtube links in instruction manual DO NOT WORK
Overall Review: Perfect mobo, would definitely recommend.
