Excellent version of the 6900 xt
Pros: Very very good thermals. Very good acoustics. The support bracket that comes with the card installs quite nicely and it doesn't mess up the mounting of any nearby cards. This version of the 6900 xt is a bit faster than most.
Cons: This card is hungry, the manufacturer and most reviewers recommend a 850w psu minimum and they are right. The card has 3, 8 pin power connectors which means it can draw like 525 watts plus whatever the rest of your system is going to use. I know all this isn't really a con but I only put it here because of the current market and availability of cards and processors so if someone ends up getting this in a shuffle just to get something they need to be ready to feed this beast or they are going to have brownouts.
Overall Review: I may be a bit biased because i wanted a 6900 xt but this card is incredible. Its a powerhouse that stays cool and quiet. Also the RGB doesn't go overboard and looks great. At first I thought the support bracket would be a con but after seeing how easy it went in my case and how it didn't even disrupt a card's backplate that it went over that thing is a total win because over time cards that don't deploy a solution like this will either damage the pci slot or you could possibly slowly seperate the cooler from the board which is more of a silent killer. I know its pricey but if you're just looking to game get a 6800 xt....if you WANT a 6900 xt this is a superior choice to most of its competitors.
Runs Cool Goes Fast
Pros: 32 threads and this thing blazes. runs cool with an AIO cooler
Overall Review: I mean...it is what it is.....its incredibly fast. I know it sucks right now if you're tryin to get a cpu/gpu but be patient and dilligent and you'll eventually get what you want.
Much better than I thought it would be
Pros: super easy to install the drive and get it all together
Cons: the thermal pad should be a bit higher quality but its no better or worse that the stuff that motherboard manufacturers use
Overall Review: This thing is very very nice looking and works exactly as it should. I installed a few games on it and they all played perfectly(Dead by Daylight, World of Warcraft, Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and a few others.) Its a good value and good quality, buy this one if u need this storage solution.
Very High Quality
Pros: Plug and play in every sense of the word, and the green feature is nice...I'm using it in my home so none of the cables are more than 50 feet to a wall outlet. Doesn't get hot.
Cons: built in wall mount hardware was a bit skinny
Overall Review: Most bang for the buck and has super low latency, just plug it in and go 1gbps!!!!
totally worth it
Pros: These things are pretty comfortable, there isn't any stress on my ears or nose keeping them on. They really take the fatigue out of extended computer/gaming use.
Cons: Only comes with a soft cotton bag, would have liked a hard case but i knew ahead of time they didn't come with one so not really a negative.
Overall Review: Whether you get a pair of these or a different set of Gunnars you really won't be disappointed in the quality of the relief they provide to extended use of monitors/tv.
great proc for the price
Pros: awesome, quad core, cheap, runs cool, great price with corsair PSU
Cons: none
Overall Review: with default settings it stays around 26C with the asus triton cooler very impressive compared to the agena 9600
