Amazing

MSI X370 KRAIT GAMING AM4 AMD X370 USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
MSI X370 KRAIT GAMING AM4 AMD X370 USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: - Price to performance is top notch - There are detailed claw marks/ ripped metal on the IO shield. Looks absolutely beautiful - White LEDs on the back of the mobo giving it a nice edge glow. - Samsung 960 Evo M.2 works at full speed. - OC'd 1700 to 3.9 at 3.5 no questions asked. - G.SKILL TridentZ Series Black/White ran at 3200 speeds no problems. - Pairs with NZXT Kraken x62 without any ram slot interference.

Cons: - No debug LED - The mobo LED on the left side is suppose to be white, looks yellowish and can't be turned off without turning all LEDs off.

Overall Review: MSI is updating their bios which should open the way for DDR4 3600 ram. Based on release dates it would seem this will be one of the last boards to receive the update. On a positive note you can get any of the compatible ram sticks at 3600 and just down clock it to 3200.

Most Critical Review

Functional but no value over the SC 3.0

EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0, 08G-P4-6276-KR, 8GB GDDR5, RGB LED, 10CM FAN, 10 Power Phases, Double BIOS, DX12 OSD Support (PXOC)
EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0, 08G-P4-6276-KR, 8GB GDDR5, RGB LED, 10CM FAN, 10 Power Phases, Double BIOS, DX12 OSD Support (PXOC)

Pros: - 1 of 2 cards did a little better overall than the minor step down of the SC version. - Blues look good - GTX 1070 overall is an amazing card and EVGA's card do perform

Cons: - Colors are washed out, whites are blue - 1 card performed substantially crappier than the GTX 1070 SC. EVGA experts on their forum said it's the silicon lottery... Just get the SC version if you're set on EVGA... amazing card. - Uses 2 8 pins compared to 1 8 pin for power of the SC version... minor performance gain? Not worth the extra power. - Heat issues, another lottery to play and I lost.

Overall Review: GTX 1070 is an amazing card and a far better value than the GTX 1080 at 1080p and 1440p. GTX 1080 shines at 3440x1440 and 4k. If you want 100+ fps on the crazily demanding titles at higher resolutions tweak a few settings like shadows which is pointless in difference from ultra to High and boom. Amazing overall card but I'd recommend the SC Version from EVGA over this unless you need the LEDs for a specific look. Less power and overall more efficient.

ASUS KO GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card KO-RTX3070-O8G-GAMING
ASUS KO GeForce RTX 3070 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card KO-RTX3070-O8G-GAMING

Pros: - Strong performance - Unique Color Scheme.

Cons: - 8GB

Overall Review: Pairing it with the Asrock Taichi B550 and Royal gold memory. Landed this for my brother whos retiring from the military and needs a new hobby after 15 years. Im both thankful and happy to have received a chance and won it.

Paired with the 9900k

G.SKILL Trident Z Neo (For AMD Ryzen) Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin RGB DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Desktop Memory Model F4-3600C16Q-32GTZNC

Pros: - Works perfectly by enabling the XMP profile. No hiccups, no issues.... just a simple DEL to enter bios and mouse click to enable xmp.

Overall Review: If this works out of box with AMD or Intel at advertised speeds it's top notch and was priced significantly cheaper than other 32gb ddr4 3600 kits.

Team XCALIBUR Phantom Gaming RGB 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 4000 (PC4 32000) Desktop Memory Model TF8D416G4000HC18EDC01
Team XCALIBUR Phantom Gaming RGB 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4 4000 (PC4 32000) Desktop Memory Model TF8D416G4000HC18EDC01

Pros: The 1st Ddr4 4000 kit that worked with the Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Elite. Clicked XMP. It loaded 1.35 volts even with the 9900k @ 5ghz. Great ram. Also the cheapest 16gb 4000 kit.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Considering trying another set to see if 32GB work.

Day One Review

Samsung CHG70 Series C32HG70 32" (Actual size 31.5") 2560 x 1440 2K Resolution 1ms (GTG) 144Hz DisplayPort, 2x HDMI, USB 3.0 Hub AMD Radeon FreeSync 2 QLED Curved Gaming Monitor
Samsung CHG70 Series C32HG70 32" (Actual size 31.5") 2560 x 1440 2K Resolution 1ms (GTG) 144Hz DisplayPort, 2x HDMI, USB 3.0 Hub AMD Radeon FreeSync 2 QLED Curved Gaming Monitor

Pros: - Vibrant Colors out of the box - Vivid image, Can't notice any PPI (Pixel Per Inch) problems. The PPI is better than a 24" 1080p monitor. - Plenty of high end features although I'm pairing the display with a GTX 1080TI - Paid 550$

Cons: - The stand is horrible. I have a Autonomous desk and good thing I didn't get the indented model... there would be no room for a keyboard/mouse. So basically use a VESA mount. My Desk is 29.5" deep and the monitor extenders over half of it. - Windows HDR is garbage after the latest update "Creators Update" out of the box the screen was multi colored lines and off center... I thought the monitor was damaged in shipping but pressed the OSD button and noticed it had no visual problems. This let me know Windows was the problem. I right clicked on the desktop (Barely able to make out any words) and went off my memory of where display settings was. I could see the HDR bar and turned it off. All problems solved. (This was with the DP cable) Did not try the HDMI cable. - Turning the response speed to anything above standard ruins the vibrancy of the monitors colors so I'll be moving forth without messing with that setting.

Overall Review: Anytime you're playing with technology on the fore front of advancing the standard there will be early adopter problems. I prefer a bright screen so I've grown accustomed to leaving certain features off on each monitor. This one is response time on others it was other settings. Something always cripples the color vibrancy and from reading reviews most people use a lower brightness than I do so to you it may be fine... Other than the stand, windows, and that one setting this monitor is so far amazing. Samsung may be falling off to Sony and LG in the T.V. hemisphere they're still pushing the envelope here. Will be putting in some H1Z1 and PU Battlegrounds time in today... if there are any hindering problems I will update and let the public know. Update: I first played with just this monitor and noticed it took a small bit to adjust to the much larger viewing plane over a 27". After breaking my kill records in h1z1 and PUBG, I plugged the ASUS PG279Q up next to it. Off the bat the colors were so much better on the Samsung. The PG279Q actually seemed washed out because I had to add brightness to it. Now the important comparison is input lag... I've never heard of Samsung breaking any records for low input lag but I couldn't notice a difference. I can only assume if someone did a scientific study the PG279Q which is tied with the Acer Predator XB271HU which are both considered the best overall gaming monitors would be a minor amount faster. Again with the monitors side by side I did not notice a difference... it's definitely fast enough for competitive gaming.

They're a vendor

The Iphone I bought came in perfect condition on the surface but performed like what I would consider a broken phone if not an outright fake iphone. It was laggy, touch sensor was bugged and battery ran out quick.

Quick Shipment, Amazing Price!

Bought a DX Racer Origin chair for 204$ and it is the most amazing chair in the world... I am SOOOOO picky when I'm throwing 100's down... I will literally return a baby of the doctor scuffs it on the way out of the womb. In 2015 I returned 2 GTOmega chairs from GTOmega for scuffs, tears, rust.... this one was PERFECT. Maybe it was just luck, but I appreciate the service Newedge US provided.
