Best bang for your buck M.2
Pros: Without a doubt this Intel 660p drive at its price offers the best storage option currently on the market for a normal/gaming consumer whose interested in great speeds and ease of use. Sequential read and writes are an improvement by a large margin over other SATA and M.2 drives in the same price bracket. You can't go wrong with this upgrade for this price.
Cons: Random read/write speeds could be approved upon however this product was clearly aimed at making a new standard in good performance for a good price not at creating the fastest storage.
Overall Review: I have installed this drive into a new windows 10 system as a boot drive, computer is normally booted to the desktop by the time my monitor has powered on and picked up the display input. Definitely a great solution for boot or storage drive.
Best bang for your buck GTX 1080
Pros: Easy over-clocker, great temps and minimalistic design make for a sleek well performing monster of a graphics card. Pushed mine to 2.1ghz core clock and 5500 memory clock with no effort at all, air cooled in Unigine Heaven for 45 minutes this card only reaches 55c in my case. Score of 3254 with extreme settings alongside a i5-8600k @ 5ghz and 16gigs ddr4 @2933mhz
Cons: No cons to be mentioned as of yet.
Overall Review: As for the card I received I have experienced no coil whine at all, also the fans on mine are dead silent up to about 70% speed which mine never get to under gaming load. If you are experiencing coil whine I highly suggest getting a higher quality PSU with good reviews and good efficiency. Power distribution is key for fixing coil whine.
