Overall Review: I had been wanting to upgrade my 3080 ever since the 5000 series was announced. I originally wanted a 5080, but after doing tons of research and obsessing, I decided to take a chance on this since I'm sticking with 1440p. Boy, am I glad I did. First off, the Expert is HUGE. I thought with just having two fans, it wouldn't be that much bigger than my EVGA 3080. Nope! HUGE. But beautiful. It is really classy looking. Second, I cannot believe how quiet it is. I have played Indy and the Great Circle and Cyberpunk with the highest settings possible and full path tracing...I haven't heard a thing. It's remarkable. Third, it runs so much cooler than my last card. SO much cooler. That's a nice feature I didn't expect. I guess them vapor chambers work! And most importantly, the results. The games I have played since getting the Expert and cranking up the settings has made my eyes tear up a few times. Games sure can be absolutely stunning these days, just gorgeous, and having the 5070 TI truly brings them to their possibilities. This is my first MSI product. It will not be my last. I am very, very impressed. Game on!

Comments: This thing is FAST. Man. What an upgrade! Going from a Celeron 366 to this is like going from a Volvo to a Corvette! A++++. Wolfenstein is excellent with this CPU.

Comments: I don't see why some people complain about this board. I just got it, hooked it up, and everything worked perfectly. Very fast, very stable, very cheap! All around a great board.

Comments: If your motherboard works with this heatsink, get it. Get it now. It's an excellent addition for any computer. Keeps my XP1800+ perfectly ambient!

Comments: Man, this thing puts out a lot of air but not that much noise at all! With my case closed, all I hear is a light hum, and that's including the powersupply! Excellent fan. Works great with my PAL8045.

Comments: While this shim may affect my CPU's temperature by a few degrees, I don't care. The peace of mind I had while installing the gigantic PAL8045 was definitely worth it. Highly recommended!
