Review update!
Pros: Amazing in every way. I was being a Gomper the colors aren't washed out monitor was 6 inches away from face moved back about a foot colors look stellar!!!! Love the fact that this comes with an HDMI cable a VGA cable and a DVI cable, thats awesome normal tvs dont even come with an hdmi cable. To point out like other reviews there IS a power button clear button on bottom of monitor!
Cons: None
People are Crazy
Pros: This unit can handle two 760s SLI and an Intel 4790k CPU. It has semi-glossy black cables that blend in better in most cases. Fully modular of course. Feel like it's just made with high quality material. Has a hand cable that has on one end two 6/8 pin input for graphic cards requiring more power.
Cons: First one was DOA :/
Overall Review: Don't be discouraged by an item having many reviews of DOAs power supplies from any manufacturer all have a decently high DOA... it's normal and bound to happen.
Outstanding
Pros: Outstanding quality for 30$ Was happy it was not DOA but then again MOBOs generally aren't. Worked right out of the box.I found out the hard way FM2 processors do not support onboard video graphics. Otherwise high quality board.
Cons: only one fan connector.
Overall Review: Built rig using this replacing a 4-5 year old inspiron computer for my uncle he was impressed with the improved speed and response. All in all this is a good mobo for a basic usage comp for browsing minor photoshop. Not sure how it would hold up in gaming rig but how could it hurt to try when it's only 30$
Outstanding
Pros: Outstanding cache prediction, having just transferred from an AMD processor I can now tell it had many cache misses (Fx 6300 fyi) I plugged this baby in and gosh dang I would have to say I am impressed Intel is where its at. And this CPU being naturally clocked at 4.0 Ghz it has oustanding speed and I have no need for it to be faster everything loads practically in the blink of an eye.
Cons: Not enough for an egg off but get a bit hot with stock heatsink on any video game. Suggest getting a bare minimum of like a Hyper 212 Evo only 35 bucks. Not bad if your already spending the money on this processor.
Outstanding
Pros: Thermal Armor works! It easily keeps Mobo 30 C or below at all times. Tiny fans are really nice decently loud due to up to 6k rpm. Just switched to Intel the BIOS of this motherboard has UEFI perfectly integrated good looking makes OCing ram super easy. Has a ton of USB 2.0 ports. An outstanding amount of USB 3.0 ports (for those that don't know backwards compatible with 2.0) Love the anti dust for the pcie ports and pci. All in all I have no complaints about the motherboard.
Cons: None at all...
Overall Review: Can cause clearance issue with Corsair H100i for putting the two fans under the radiator on inside of some cases luckily my corsair 600t had space.on the top of case. Just fyi BE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH SPACE IN CASE FOR H100i this motherboard can cause clearance issues with H100i. No regrets though wonderful buy.
Zero Complaints
Pros: Outstanding card. Best buy I've had why get a 600 series for ten bucks less. Has great temps never overheated for me. I'm SLIing this card only a few games are improved due to the high quality of just one.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: Just FYI if you want to OC ths use afterburner and I've done a lot of research the perfect OC is +140 core clock, +200 memory clock. Give and extra 5fps as if it needs that. Also in SLI I would have to say two have the equality of just below a titan. Cannot imagine 3 way SLI.
