Pros: No problems with the drivers in the short time I've been using it. Right now I'm running it clocked in at 940Mhz core and 1160Mhz VRAM. At these settings it clears Vantage on High with no artifacting and my score went up from H6153 on my 512MB HD4870 (tested on a clean boot) to H7623 on this 4890 (without trying a clean boot yet.) That's something like 24%. How can you NOT love that?

Cons: ATI Overdrive clocks mine in at 990Mhz GPU and 1190Mhz VRAM, but it artifacts like mad at those settings in 3DMark Vantage. But let's be honest, that's a ridiculous increase from the stock speeds of 850/950.

Overall Review: Only had it for a few days but what I've seen so far is truly amazing me.

Pros: If you look back through the history of this product this is about the 4th time I've reviewed it, always under the same nickname. Any pros I can give will have been there.

Cons: I tried to like these drives, they do perform rather well when they work. But I initially bought two to RAID back in August. One of those failed seagates test programs as soon as I got it. Sent it in for an RMA and got the replacement setup in a RAID0. I had been getting an occasional Driver IRQ B.S.O.D. from day one on this build and after searching for a culprit for quite sometime I began to assume I had a failing drive causing it. Got my confirmation of that tonight when one drive dissapeared from my RAID list. I started moving the drives around and no matter how I set it up in single drive configs the one that replaced the first RMA won't show up at all. Other drive shows fine on any of the cables and any SATA slot. Two out of three failed now. Unfortunately I think it's time I shift over to WD.

Pros: Mushkin is a fantastic product from a company that gives better product support than any other business I have ever interacted with. 4 sticks run flawlessly at stock settings with Ryzen 1800x. Passed extensive memory testing. Was able to over-clock 4x8 to 3200, with my 1800x in an ASUS Crosshair VI Hero, with just a slight voltage increase and increasing the timings. At stock CPU settings and four sticks at 3200 with much looser timings, (20-20-20-40 I believe is what I tested at) Geekbench scores were nearly identical to a 4ghz CPU over-clock with stock memory settings.

Cons: Rated timings are typically a little higher than some of the competition. Mushkin is reliable enough to be used by businesses rather than gamers, so this is not surprising.

Overall Review: I've used nothing but Mushkin memory since 2008. Have never had a single issue. Their support even assisted me with over-clocking my system years ago when I was new to it. That said. I HAVE replaced these sticks. Not because there was any issue with them. But because the increase in benchmarks while these sticks were over-clocked made it worth buying faster RAM that was rated for lower timings to me.

Pros: Would like to find out

Cons: Our slow cooker came without a lid. It's hard to really judge it on anything else when you can't use it.

Pros: decent price?

Cons: First bad sign? During the first step of Vista install it failed and tossed up a "cannot format hard drive" error. Never seen that one before, not at that step anyway. Tried formatting it in 2 or three different utilities. All either noted bad sectors or just hung endlessly. Seatools also hung, it reached 86% and then just sat there for hours. Eventually I tried to exit the scan and the whole system was locked up. This is the second Seagate drive, out of three, that I've had fail right from the start in the last year. I've pretty much lost faith in the company at this point. I understand that bad drives happen, but when you keep getting them it's hard to not switch to another brand.

Overall Review: Unfortunately for me this drive sat in the box it shipped in a closet for 2 months waiting on the person I was building a system for to get the rest of her parts. Now it's to late to RMA through NewEgg and I'm gonna have to go through Seagate Warranty support again. Which for the record was very efficient last time... once I got past the first week and a half of convincing their first contact tech support that there was a problem with the drive.

Pros: Includes about everything you could need for any build. Stuff in here I know I'll never touch. Not sure if that's a pro or not...

Cons: Perhaps a bit pricey, as has been noted by everyone.

Overall Review: It's a screw kit... what do you want from me?
