Most Favorable Review

Excellent air cooler

Noctua NH-D15 chromax.black, Dual-Tower CPU cooler (140mm, Black)
Noctua NH-D15 chromax.black, Dual-Tower CPU cooler (140mm, Black)

Pros: Quiet, it tamed the temps on my 13900K, coming from over a decade of water cooling as I prefer water for it being quieter, I knew my old swiftech with the apogee waterblock wouldnt be suficient to cool my new cpu, I ak glad I got this cooler.

Cons: None

Overall Review: If you follow instructions the cooler is very easy to mount. The fan clip retainers are a bit awkward at first, but once you get the trick they are easy to pop on/off

Huge and awesome

Phanteks NV9, Showcase Full-Tower Chassis, High Airflow Performance, Integrated D/A-RGB Lighting, Seamless Tempered Glass Design, 11x 140mm Fan Positions, Black

Pros: Excellent quality build Highly configurable Dont get if having a 70lbs is an issue Was able to configure with a total of 10 140mm fans including a 420mm rad, everything pieced itself perfectly

Cons: Not many other than weight - factor this in

Overall Review: A1 I recommend this highly customizable tower. Included RGB controller was plug and play with my Asus Prime Z790 motherboard

An absolute beast

Intel Core i9-13900K - Core i9 13th Gen Raptor Lake 24-Core (8P+16E) P-core Base Frequency: 3.0 GHz E-core Base Frequency: 2.2 GHz LGA 1700 125W Intel UHD Graphics 770 Desktop CPU Processor - BX8071513900K
Intel Core i9-13900K - Core i9 13th Gen Raptor Lake 24-Core (8P+16E) P-core Base Frequency: 3.0 GHz E-core Base Frequency: 2.2 GHz LGA 1700 125W Intel UHD Graphics 770 Desktop CPU Processor - BX8071513900K

Pros: Upgraded my rig from a X99 system with a 6950X running quad channel DDR4 RAM to this chip. I didnt think playing games my cpu was the bottleneck as I currently have a 2080 super, boy was I ever wrong. An absolute beast, power hungry yes, be sure to get the motherboard socket mounting plate, you will thank yourself later, and also either watercool it, or go with a DH-15; you wont regret it.

Cons: None. Actually glad I voted to stay with Intel vs. AMD especially with their current melting/overheat issues with the 3D chips

Overall Review: Im hopeful I have future proofed myself for several years with this purchase compared to my old 6950x rig!

A must have

CPU Contact Frame LGA 1700 Bracket for Intel 12th Gen CPU
CPU Contact Frame LGA 1700 Bracket for Intel 12th Gen CPU

Pros: Truly works, paired with a Noctua Dh15, this bracket dropped my temps across my 13900k by 8 degres celcius, and the difference between my hotest and coldest cores are now within 3-5degres vs. 12 degres without

Cons: None

Overall Review: Get it, you will thank yourself

As expected

WD Red 4TB NAS Internal Hard Drive - 5400 RPM Class, SATA 6Gb/s, SMR, 256MB Cache, 3.5" - WD40EFAX

Pros: Excellent, quite drives. Purchased for familly picture storage setup in mirror raid array for redundancy. They are super quiet, and runs cool ( 32 celcius in an older IBM case )

Cons: None for me and my usage of them

Overall Review: Purchased on special for 80 bucks a piece in late 2021, cannot complain!
