Ryzen 7

Pros: Extremely fast at stock speed. Upgraded from a FX8370. Crushes through BD to x265 encodes on Handbrake (Linux) at over 125FPS on slow encode (high compression). GOW4 at over 100FPS on ULTRA. Corsair H60 mounts right up 28C at 15% normal running and 40C full load at 25%. Silent killer! Not attempted OC as there is no need. Runs great on Windows 10 Pro x64 Scream on Linux Mint 18.1 x64 Cinnamon
Cons: None.

Absolute Garbage

Pros: None at all.
Cons: Bought 4 of these for a new sever and put in RAID 5. One failed after about a month and another luckily just after rebuilding the array. All four died with 6 months and the replacement died before another 6 months. All have now been replaced with Hitachi drives running for over 3 years now. Like all my Hitachi drives they will continue to run 15 to 20 years. Never again WD!!
AMD power

Pros: Ridiculously powerful CPU
Cons: None
Overall Review: Replace a 3950x on MSI x570 Pro board with 32GB G.Skill DDR4 3600 RAM and RTX2080 video card. Running Linux Mint 20.3 and Fedora 35, both on NVMe. Absolutely crushes at audio/video production and gaming.
Low power PC

Pros: Low power but speedy for light use
Cons: None
Overall Review: I bought this to stay on 24/7 while I'm on call. My desktop is a 5950x with RTX2080 so it draws a lot of power. This is connected via USB kvm with main PC. Both go DP straight to Gigabyte 34 curved ultra wide which auto detects the input when either is powered on. I can leave this on all week when on call for remote sessions and web browsing without pulling a lot of power. Wiper it immediately and installed Linux Mint 20.3. Runs great with default install and kernel though I did switch to the OEM kernel series.
Great 4k curve

Pros: Resolution, color, black level, curve
Cons: None
Overall Review: Bought this to replace an older LG 2k flat 34 Ultra wide. What a difference it is. Primarily used on Linux Mint and Fedora with MSI RTX2080 Super. Desktop experience is outstanding and gaming is a dream. The detail, color and black level is impressive out of the box. The curve is perfect for where I sit. Using DP cable to connect and no issues with pixels or light bleed.
Great basic UPS

Pros: Affordable and reliable.
Cons: None at all.
Overall Review: Works as it should for my wifes computer in her office. I own twelve Cyberpower UPS units with this being the smallest by far but all work flawlessly. Some I have owned for ten years and only replaced the battery.
