Pros: everything was very cool about the board from the dragon center to the bios. the red audio output in the back is 32bit sound something I haven't seen anywhere. Very easy to set custom CPU profiles and fan profiles for all fans.

Cons: one con the sound card on the back 3 of the jacks don't seem to work I presume it is a windows issue and something must be messed in windows to get them to work the other 3 work fine.

Overall Review: nice utilities and ability to customize everything.

affordable and reliable

Pros: worked fine at advertised speeds and advertised voltage.

Cons: One small mistake the voltage on the stick is given on two different places and they give 2 different voltages obviously the one written on the stick is right and the other one I think on the package is off by some millivolts so not stable at the advertised speeds. Stable if you use the voltage that is written on the stick.

Overall Review: great product

Insanely good cpu

AMD Ryzen 7 3rd Gen - RYZEN 7 3700X Matisse (Zen 2) 8-Core 3.6 GHz (4.4 GHz Max Boost) Socket AM4 65W 100-100000071BOX Desktop Processor

Pros: AMD has literally made some insane architecture with this CPU. It scores 4850 on cinabench r20 undervolted by 0.09 at stock profiles with turbo tuning set to a higher profile in bios. This performance for an undervolted processor is just insane. I don't think there is much headroom for overclock but with this architecture, it is totally unnecessary it just renders like a freaking overclocked intel at stock speeds.

Cons: none

Overall Review: great value good for gaming and workstation workloads.

Decent for the price.

ARCTIC Freezer 34 eSports DUO - Tower CPU Cooler with Push-Pull Configuration, Wide Range of Regulation 200 to 2100 RPM, Includes 2 Low Noise PWM 120 mm Fans - Green

Pros: I have it cooling 0.09 undervolted 3700k ryzen. The max temps under stress are 66c which insanely good.

Cons: the mounting screws and other components can be improved by adding different lengths and springs and etc. It installs hard mounted on the cpu core.

Overall Review: Great cooler.
