Great PSU

Pros: The PSU works, fully modular which is excellent. Much lighter than my previous 1000w. Since my case is so large it's nice to take some weight off.
Cons: None, works right out of the box.
Overall Review: The black matches my case perfectly, it's almost as if the case and PSU were made for each other.
Can't edit my Other review

Pros: Cheap, sound quality is good enough for the price ($15 on sale) and comfortable.
Cons: All of the sound coming through my headset bleeds through the microphone and I get complaints from everyone I'm playing games with. The whole point of me buying a headset is to eliminate teammates from hearing key spam or themselves when I key up my mic. These headphones do not do that, I will be returning them.
Overall Review: I wasn't able to edit my previous review which was much better than this one before I started getting complaints of microphone bleed.
Very Fast and Beautiful

Pros: This RAM is fast, and does everything I would need it to before overclocking. It matches my MSI board perfectly!
Cons: None, see other thoughts for issues not related to this RAM.
Overall Review: The Fan mount is a nice addition, however due to the poor spacing between my RAM slots and CPU I was unable to use it. If you're buying this RAM make sure there is enough space between where your RAM mounts and your CPU heat sink and fan will be. Even with the stock heat sink and fan I was unable to use the RAM mounted fan.
Fast and Well Worth It

Pros: This CPU is fast and does everything I would need it to do without overclocking.
Cons: Don't have any as of yet, see other thoughts for a recommendation.
Overall Review: This CPU does run a bit hot, not really a con though as a typical $30 aftermarket CPU fan and heat sink will keep it at 40c under duress. If you're going to buy this, spend the extra money on a good heat sink and fan, the stock one just won't cut it.
Nice Motherboard ad Looks Great

Pros: Motherboard works beautifully, has a very nice look to it and had no issues with my I7 4790k processor. Booted up and has been running smoothly since the build.
Cons: The RAM slots are way to close to the CPU. My RAM came with a mount and fan to keep them cool, however with an aftermarket CPU heatsink and fan or even with the stock Intel heatsink and fan I cannot use the RAM mount and fan. The mount butts up right next to the CPU heatsink and would block essentially all airflow to the CPU.
Overall Review: This would be a 5 egg rating if the RAM slots were a half inch further away from the CPU.
Don't Be Scared Off

Pros: Very nice looking, does a fantastic job of cooling my i7 4790k. Install was easy (see other thoughts for a complete analysis)
Cons: Much larger than I thought, so large that it block my ability to use my RAM mounted fan. That could be a motherboard design flaw as well. I took one star off because of how flimsy the brackets to hold the fan to the heat sink are. Had I not read reviews of how flimsy it was I may not have been as careful thinking they wouldn't bend so easily.
Overall Review: I bought this on a deal, then realized that a lot of the reviews complained about how hard and difficult the install was. Many people complained about how it didn't mount to the board well with the Intel brackets. I can assure you that the install was VERY easy! The brackets clicked right in and held strong the first try. This was by far the easiest aftermarket CPU heatsink/fan I have installed to date No brackets or backplates needed here. Don't let the bad reviews on the install scare you away, I got this installed within 10 minutes. Part of me wonders what the real tech level is of those that say it's hard to install.
