Ordered two RED, got one RED one MIXED?
Pros:Β Nice sturdy small USB mechanical keyboard, Key click is not loud and feels responsive. And a plus it's supposed to be water resistant. does things my old spendy Logitech never did. I ordered 2 of them. One of them for a family member and me. I belive I got a good deal.
Cons:Β Only Non Con thing was they was supposed to be RED Led backlit. Model # ending in 2990, one was 7 Color Led mod # 2989. I quadruple checked invoice and BOX labels. Both was supposed to be RED #2990. It's a small issue, and no need to return because both units work good on my Gaming system.
Overall Review:Β Overall review this is a decent keyboard for the price, I can recommend it.
BIOS loops, forgets settings.
Pros:Β This is my third personal Gigabyte mobo, and I built more than counted for others. Just built a X390 Arous Master for friend a month ago. Gigabyte always had quality. They are my go to first for new builds.
Cons:Β BIOS (F12e) will lose the SSD setting in M.2 A, and just keeps looping back into BIOS and showing no drive installed, or sees one. Funny part is after a couple re-entering the WD Black SSD and save setting, it will see it and load windows and work fine. Thinking it was the M.2 A sharing the Pcie 4.0 with video card, I installed the SSD in M.2 B. It still loops but now it goes to the Arous logo screen with the F12 for boot and DEL for BIOS, and Q-Flash at bottom. So far I have not had a push power button and windows pops up normal. Also I have never seen the chipset fan spin or run yet. Thinking it was waiting for it's set temp to turn on or something. Gigabyte has always been good, but my luck ran out and I got a lemon.
Overall Review:Β This X570 Arous Elite Wifi has plenty of USB ports but could use more fan plug-ins. And it's a good looking board. I Recommend Gigabyte to my Friends and Cutomers.
Nice Keyboard But...
Pros:Β Nice Keyboard for the price, some nice features like the sound volume wheel. solidly built.
Cons:Β I bought this mainly for the back lite keys but sadly like most RGB devices need software that just does not work. most have a "FN" key, and you adj by Left or right arrow keys. I wanted a static color (white) bright and clear. All I can get is RED. there is a software UI I downloaded from EVGA and it updated itself witch was nice, I like to stay up to date, but when I choose the Static and color I its not White but more a baby blue, witch is acceptable to me but it wont type or accept inputs after SW does it thing. so I'm stuck with the default RED or the Rainbow pattern. this saddens me cause I'm a huge EVGA fan from way back. bought several of their Video cards and they were rock rock solid.
Overall Review:Β Nice Keyboard for the price and features hard to beat, and a name brand like EVGA.
Works fine but....
Pros:Β I was a little worried when I saw the seal cut open on the box. I installed it in my ROG laptop, and it when in fine. But when I started my laptop and went to initialize and format the SSD it took a bit to see it and would not initialize at first. It came up as a E and F drive? It had 2 partitions on it. After deleting the 2 partitions I was able to make 1 2Tb one. And now it seems to work as advertised. I thought I was buying a brand new, not open box, and not a used drive. But it works fine.
Cons:Β Was not a brand new un open box, seal was cut, but all looked like it was there, docs and paperwork. It was clear it was not a fresh never used drive, had 2 partitions on it, a 1.4t and a 380g, this drive was used and not new. In the end I got it to work, and see no further problems with the unit. I'm a tiny disappointed, and hope there is no further issue.
Overall Review:Β Buyer Beware. It may not be new but used. But works as advertised.
USB 2.0 ports stoped working less than 30 days.
Pros:Β nice look, easy to install, Great price.
Cons:Β the USB 2.0 ports stoped working less than 30 days after install, not worth return for price, too much hassle. but won't stop me from buying more equipment from Egghead.
