Pros: This Creative Sound BlasterX AE-5 Plus has very Clean Sound Quality and does not Dull out at High Volume Levels as the Creative Sound Blaster Z did. The Creative Sound Blaster Z was a very Poor Quality Sound Card and the Software was even more frustrating. This AE-5 Plus sounds better than the EVGA Nu Audio and even better at Higher Volume Levels. The EVGA would dull out the High Frequencies at 90% Volume levels. The EVGA was way overpriced for what it was and had no What You Hear Software, so no Music Audio was not possible to Record with no Stereo Mix options available. That to me was an EVGA Rip Off to not include What You Hear Stereo Mix.

Cons: For Audio Studio use, stay away from the EVGA Nu Audio Series. No allowed Music Audio recording, as it is not possible due to the lack of Quality, and no What You Hear Options.

Overall Review: Creative finally got another good Sound card out. The Creative Sound BlasterX AE-5 Plus is a very Good Card and decent Software, an it also has the Native Speaker Check Testing Software that the XFI Series had.

Pros: Nice Case, easy to work with.

Cons: BROKEN FRONT PANEL LED CABLES, TORN OF PUSH ON ENDS! Price drop right after I had purchased it

Overall Review: All in all, Apevia is a very good PC Case Company, I have had many of their PC cases in the past 10 years, and have always been Happy with them.

Pros: Bench Mark scores increased a huge amount with this ASRock Taichi X870E, AMD 9900X Processer, and using the same RTX 3080Ti Video card.

Cons: None!

Overall Review: So far fast and reliable..

Overall Review: Fast Memory! Huge improvement over the DDR4

Pros: It is fast enough to make a difference.

Cons: Speeds do not reach as advertized.

Overall Review: Advertizement is Puffery about the up to speed peformances.

Pros: This Memory remerged my settings of the DDR4 Vengeance Pro RGB 3600 32 gigs on boot up no need to go into the Bios.

Cons: None!

Overall Review: Good Memory
