Good Gaming Monitors
Pros: I didn't buy these through newegg but through cheetah deals as refurbs for 180 bucks shipped (i bought 3 for nvidia surround) They are still working beautifully after about one and half years. no dead pixels. its a solid if basic 120hz 3d 1080p monitor
Cons: -largish angled bezels, not conducive for multiple displays -slight bleed from top and bottom -color depth is weak (lcds are weak in general) -still makes me miss my 16:10 Sony GDM-FW900 widescreen CRTs
Overall Review: I wouldn't pay 300 bucks for these monitors today.
half-baked product
Pros: -Cheap -Small -Blinks Blue
Cons: -Azio has no drivers for AWU111N on their site for download?! -poor connection range -poor peformance even when in close range -realtek drivers are poorly designed with strange placement of options and features.
Overall Review: wait for a driver update IF it it'll ever happen.
Flawed water block or application of paste, will return.
Pros: looks nice, has RGB everywhere.
Cons: junction delta temperatures way too high for water. 40-50c plus between gpu and junction temps at stock clocks. I typically waterblock air cooled cards, decided to get one pre installed this time. I have run a pelthora of water cooling gpus (GTX 480, 290X, 6900 XT) in my lifetime and this is the worst I have seen.
Overall Review: either the waterblock is not sufficient enough to keep this card cooled or there is poor application of OEM paste. either way, I paid a premium for the factory to do the work and have come up very dissatified, will be returning.
Lol, still kicking
Pros: was able to SLI two 8800 GTs I bought in 2007. It outlived both nvidia cards that died. two fans for resiliency
Cons: sorta loud by todays standard with the two smallish fans.
Overall Review: I wish power supplies lasted as long as this one!!
Feels like a quality piece of white gold, amazing build quality compared to the plastic RTX gas burners look.
Pros: the shill reviewers lied, this card runs quiet and super cold. my quieter and colder then the blower vegas... FPS is through the roof compared to my Vega 64s. I snagged another one from amd.com and will run MGPU. I cannot wait. 16GB of VRAM HBM2, 1 TERABYTE of memory bandwidth. the must stutter free card I have ever used. 2080ti and TItan have nothing on this beast when it comes the memory subsystem. AMD released another driver today. amazing driver support lately from AMD> the 2019 edition is amazing. it took less then 1 min to install the driver, they keep getting more efficient. AMD is on a roll.
Cons: still a few niggly issues with freesync. they need to fix flicker on some freesync monitors.
Overall Review: far and away the most impressive AMD graphics product this century. they really surprised a lot of people with a 2080 competitor so soon. AMD is back to high level gaming graphics!!!!
After 4 years of 24/7 usage
Pros: Still running strong in my triple Crossfire setup no leaks converted to mining Cryptonight 24/7 (running Vegas 64s now), no issues with memory overclocked to 1500, Runs below 60c in non AC environment.
Cons: minor niggle, but the card is narrow enough to be single slot, but has dual slots because of video inputs.
