Great Case

HYTE Y60 Modern Aesthetic Dual Chamber Panoramic Tempered Glass Mid-Tower ATX Computer Gaming Case with PCIe 4.0 Riser Cable Included, White
HYTE Y60 Modern Aesthetic Dual Chamber Panoramic Tempered Glass Mid-Tower ATX Computer Gaming Case with PCIe 4.0 Riser Cable Included, White

Pros: Nice size - not too large while still offering plenty of room Tons of space for cable mgmt, very similar to my O11D Like the air flow design with hidden bottom chamber for intake fans Easy to disassemble Removable rad mount Cable grommet design is fantastic, never seen these before - easier to route the cables and don't have to worry about ripping the grommets out Plenty of tie-down points Included vertical GPU mount w PCIE4 riser with good looking cover for the male end Easy disassembly Good price considering the included vert mount/riser

Cons: Wish HD trays had blank out plates if they are not needed Would have been nice if mesh filters were all removable, would've liked to remove on my exhaust. Included fans are meh

Overall Review: Overall very satisfied with the cases design and build quality. Picked it up for new 7600x build, ATM I have all the fans set up, AIO installed, and PSU installed/extensions ran with some basic cable mgmt. I'm still waiting for the B650 mobos, so I decided to set everything up and run all the cables so it'll be ready as soon as I get my mobo. Very happy so far w the case, coming from a PCO11D this definitely is comparable as far as quality and design. Would definitely recommend for users looking for a aesthetically pleasing case with great cable mgmt at a fair price.

Great Value Card

ASRock Phantom Gaming Radeon RX 7900 XT 20GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ATX Graphics Card RX7900XT PGW 20GO
ASRock Phantom Gaming Radeon RX 7900 XT 20GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ATX Graphics Card RX7900XT PGW 20GO

Pros: Great value for the level of performance you get Great raster perf White edition looks great Great build quality, card doesn't look/feel like it was made with cheap plastic for the shroud Heatsink/cooling solution works great (replaced TIM with Kingping KPX and new thermal pads on memory chips as soon as I got it which contributed) Overclocks great, 10%+ gains Not as large as I anticipated, only about 2.5 slot (some were saying 3 slot)

Cons: Required ASRock RGB app, minimal adjustment, doesn't get recognized by other RGB programs so cannot sync ASRock tweaker app just doesn't work, tried multiple installs but errors it when trying to launch, AMD Adrenaline works great as a replacement though Poor RT perf vs Nvidia

Overall Review: See pros and cons, overall very satisfied, first AMD card since iirc their 4870 or 4850, and do not regret it. Ran DDU, installed driver's and Adrenaline, card ran fine with no issues. Spent a couple hours tuning in a stable OC, was very surprised how far I could push the memory and core (with an UV) while still keeping it in the 60s. Beats out the 4070 TiS (and can hit 4080 perf in some games with the OC) while costing $200+ less, I don't use RT which would really be the Ti only advantage.

Love It

NZXT H1 White Mini-ITX Small Form Factor Tempered Glass Desktop Computer Case CA-H16WR-W1-US
NZXT H1 White Mini-ITX Small Form Factor Tempered Glass Desktop Computer Case CA-H16WR-W1-US

Pros: Amazing price even for a refurb - included all necessary hardware Included AIO, PSU and PCIE riser Cables pre-ran and exact length needed Very easy to build in Looks great Great build quality 8ncludes fixed riser

Cons: Air flow stock is meh, I added a rear extension w 2 120 intakes w replacement front panel that is perforated (dropped temp significantly) If RAM is too tall you may need a slim fan for AIO - I had to do this as the included fan was pushing on my Corsair Vengeance sticks AIO cold plate had clear signs of use though that won't impact performance Wish PSU had 3 VGA cables

Overall Review: Overall very happy w case, when I saw it for sale at 1/3 the price I immediately jumped on it despite being a refurb. Aside from wear on the cold plate there was no other signs of use. It has performed perfectly thus far, even better now with the rear extension and new front panel. Great Case, great quality - would definitely recommend.

Great product

Overall Review: Happy with my purchase overall, great product Pros: Very comfortable, great padding on the lap K63 fits perfectly and locks into place Good mouse pad, smooth Wrist rest for keyboard is comfortable Cons: Mouse slides off the pad very easily, solved that by using Velcro to attach a small wrist rest beneath
