Pros: -G-Sync and HDR work flawlessly -High refresh rate is easier on the eyes -Excellent price -HUGE display

Cons: -Curved displays can take some getting used-to -Very bright, but almost to a fault

Overall Review: I purchased this monitor to replace a 60hz 2k ViewSonic model that was honestly hurting my eyes due to low refresh rate and low brightness. This Samsung model is bright to the point that, at night, it takes a bit of tech-fu to lower the color saturation and brightness. However, the high refresh rate, g-sync, and HDR features make using my PC during daylight hours much easier on the eyes. It took a bit of reading to figure out how to enable g-sync with an Nvidia GPU and how to enable windows HDR, but once completed, this monitor is a joy to use. It's light enough to use with a cheap VESA mount and doesn't heat up nearly as much as the unit that it replaced. If you prefer 2k over 1080p and want to retain a higher refresh rate for gaming and productivity, this fits the bill for a very reasonable price.

Pros: -Fastest clock speed I've ever seen in an AMD CPU -Supports cutting-edge features of the x670e platform

Cons: -Requires quite a few BIOS tweaks to get the best, most stable performance

Overall Review: I had to spend quite a bit of money on a motherboard that could handle a CPU this fast. If you're looking to build an AM5 system, do NOT cheap-out on your other components. I am getting consistent all-core speeds as high as 5.4 Ghz with stable, low temperatures. However, to accomplish this, undervolting is required and specific BIOS settings need to be set via trial-and-error. Premium RAM is a good investment as well to get the best performance.

Pros: -4-core, 8- thread performance under $200USD. -Automatically over-clocks to 4Ghz given an aftermarket cooling solution. -Supports latest motherboard chipsets and Windows 11 out-of-the-box.

Cons: -Included cooling system is loud. -No integrated graphics on-board.

Overall Review: I was recently tasked with building a system on a budget, and was able to save quite a bit by going with this CPU. It is plenty powerful for getting work done and for playing videogames. While this is not the fastest offering from AMD, it does support the latest features and can be overclocked easily.

Pros: -Silent operation. -Comes with everything you need, including a screwdriver and a syringe of premium thermal compound. -Takes up less space than a stock cooler, but performs better.

Cons: -The fins are easily bent, but can be bent back into place without worry. -Installing this fan requires the fan to be un-clipped from the heat sink in order to access the screws.

Overall Review: I was tasked with building a workstation for a friend who was concerned, at first, about fan noise when the system first came together. After replacing a few fans with Noctua products, the system is nearly silent and she is extremely happy with her new PC.

Pros: -Wireless features exceed expectations. -Sturdy construction. -Easy to set up. -Comes with more headers than you probably need in a small build.

Cons: -Does not come with heat spreaders for M.2 drives. -Wireless antenna cable could be longer.

Overall Review: This is a great motherboard for micro-ATX builds. There are plenty of features, fan headers, RGB connectivity, and wireless features. The included antenna supports the latest WIFI protocols and the latest Bluetooth. PCI-e 4.0 accommodates the latest and fastest M.2 drives and graphics cards.

Pros: - Easy access to the motherboard tray on both sides. -Easy to mount power supply bracket. -Modular hard drive mounts. -Lots of room for fans. -Plenty of accessories included.

Cons: -No room for optical drive.

Overall Review: I purchased this case to build a compact workstation for a friend. This case could not be easier to build in. Cable management is easy, there is plenty of room for 2.5" and 3.5" drives, and the motherboard tray is easy to work with. There are plenty of options for mounting fans, and the kit comes with plenty of hardware and zip-ties.

The 980 pro lives up to the hype. My pc starts uo so fast, i cannot tell the difference between a cold boot and a wake from sleep mode. I have used 970 evo m.2's for years on pcie 3.0 platforms, but this drive, on pcie 4.0, truly shines.
