Works
Pros: Works well!!!!
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Works well in a Asus Maximus VII Hero motherboard with an Intel 4690K. Ordered a second pair!!!!
Open-box problem
Pros: The usual ones for a board in this price range.
Cons: Missing Q-connector. This was an Open-Box newegg.com purchase. So I knew this could happen. I contacted Asus support and they refused to send me a replacement Q-connector (a sub $5 part).
Overall Review: I've purchased Asus parts/devices for several years (although not exclusively) and was always pleased with their service/products. The Q-connector is a great invention for people like me trying to build a new system with poor eyesight.
Broken Sata plug
Pros: Great refurb price! Quiet.
Cons: - Not much room between Sata power plugs b) one of the Sata power plugs had a broken orange wire.
Overall Review: For the price I saved buying refurb, the broken connector was worth the savings.
