Great Card

XFX Double D Radeon HD 7970 3GB DDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card FX797ATDJC
XFX Double D Radeon HD 7970 3GB DDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card FX797ATDJC

Pros: I have this card paired with a XFX 7970 Black Edition and have no issues at all. I OC'ed this card to match the Black Edition stock specs and it jumps to about 70c while playing Battlefield 4 on ultra. I have read a lot of bad reviews and so far I have yet to experience any of them.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: If you do not have a Full ATX or a Mid ATX with a lot of air flow I am not sure you would want to crossfire this card. My top card will hit around 78c under max load and I run a full case with a ton of air flow. Other than that great product.

Garbage

Tripp Lite P139-06N-DP Mini Displayport to Displayport Adapter (Mini DP Male to DP Female)
Tripp Lite P139-06N-DP Mini Displayport to Displayport Adapter (Mini DP Male to DP Female)

Pros: Nothing at all

Cons: Everything, it is like nothing is even plugged in.

Overall Review: I bought it hoping that it would work that just maybe it would have been fixed since the last reviews we submitted but nope no such luck

Amazing SSD

SAMSUNG 840 EVO MZ-7TE250BW 2.5" 250GB SATA 6Gb/s 1x nm Samsung Toggle DDR 2.0 3-Bit MLC NAND Flash Memory (400Mbps) Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
SAMSUNG 840 EVO MZ-7TE250BW 2.5" 250GB SATA 6Gb/s 1x nm Samsung Toggle DDR 2.0 3-Bit MLC NAND Flash Memory (400Mbps) Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Pros: This thing is fast. The software that comes with this is pretty it made an easy transfer from my old SSD to the new one. I have not had the drive long enough to have a full review but just wanted to put this is for the time being will update in a month or so after I can work with it some more.

Cons: The only issue I really had with this is that it does not come with a SATA Cable. It is not a huge issue since I have more than enough but for the price tag on this I should get a cable as well.

Can't beat the price

Manufacturer Recertified OCZ Vertex 2 3.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSD3-2VTX120G
Manufacturer Recertified OCZ Vertex 2 3.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) OCZSSD3-2VTX120G

Pros: It is a 3.5" drive so I did not have to find an adapter for it to fit right into its spot. I was impressed at its speed rating for it being a refurb as well as only being sata II. I would recommend this to anybody looking for a good cheap SSD

Cons: The only downfall is that when I plugged it in I only read 109GB of storage which makes me think it has a bad sector, but I really can't complain since it is a refurb.

Overall Review: I have bought new stuff that is DOA so when buying a refurb you still have a chance of an issue but I would highly recommend buying this if you are on a budget build

Great RAM

G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR
G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR

Pros: I plugged it in and went right into my BIOS and oc'ed this ram and ran a number of stress test and worked my computer and had no issues and it has continued to work great!

Cons: The only bad thing about this RAM is that it is tall I had to do some work to get it to fit under my Hyper 212 Evo.

Overall Review: I will continue to buy this RAM for any other builds I do.

Amazing

XFX Double D FX-797A-TDBC Radeon HD 7970 Black Edition 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
XFX Double D FX-797A-TDBC Radeon HD 7970 Black Edition 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: This card is amazing. I have put it through all types of testing. The install was easy as always being with a GPU. I had the Crysis 3 demo and went to the options and had it select best graphics and it went right to Ultra High. There was no lag in any movement and the game looked amazing! I would recommend this to anybody that wants the best!

Cons: There is only one this wrong with the GPU if you have a small case this is not for you. The GPU is long, wide and heavy.

Overall Review: I ordered this on a Wednesday and I had it Friday thank you newegg. This GPU has more than exceeded my expectation and I could not be happier!
