Pros: A quantum leap above steering with a game controller. I usually run with the paddle shifters and automatic clutch. You can feel the rumble strips, gravel, bumps in the road. And you can regulate how much 'weight' the wheel has. It also returns to center due to caster just like a real car. It is lots of fun and I'm 55 years old. Wish I was a teenager again. I'd stay in my room all day and play racing simulators and look at the poor women with no clothing on the internet.

Cons: The Logitech Profiler configuration manager has several settings as do the individual driving simulators. It takes some research to figure out how to set it up. Just Google it and you'll get it figured out.

Overall Review: When I put the car in reverse to back out of the tire wall or whatever else I hit, my body pitches back due to the perception of inertia created by the wheel and the visuals on the screen. Very immersive. All I need now is a full motion base. Not.

Pros: The USB port defect manifested immediately prompting me to RMA the mobo within my 30 day grace period. Newegg kindly granted the RMA.

Cons: The system would lock up whenever a USB stick was plugged into the front USB ports.

Overall Review: I called Asus tech support about the USB port problem and the tech told me I probably had the cable plugged in wrong. I've only been building computers for 20 years. And it's impossible to plug the USB cables in wrong because of the blank spot on the plug.

Pros: Installed the card today. Played Rage for a couple hours with settings near max. Card ran about 46 degrees C. Framerates were excellent. Noise level is very low for two big fans.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: Would recommend.

Pros: Quiet.

Cons: Failed after one day. I installed it as I have been installing PC hardware for 20 years using routine anti-static precautions. Installed latest nvidia driver. Launched XBMC and watched a couple hours of video over the HDMI on plasma TV. All was well. Next day I booted up the PC and had no video. Checked for output through HDMI, DVI, and VGA. No joy. Replaced GT 430 with my old GTX 7800 and all was well with the video. I'll be requesting an RMA for this card. This is my first bad experience with EVGA. They are my go-to company for video cards. I have had at least 6 EVGA video cards.

Overall Review: The fan is still running on the card and I don't see or smell any burned components. And the card was not overclocked. I was only using it for my HTPC.

Pros: Does everything I need for FSX. Feels good in the hand. Good spring forces. Thumb buttons are well placed for controlling elevator trim and flaps. Additional buttons can be set up to control landing gear, spoilers, views, or whatever else you want to assign. Twist axis is great for ground steering and rudder control. Wide base is stable.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Perfect choice if you want to get into flight simming for a reasonable cost.

Pros: Came free with new AMD processor. AMD should put a stop to giving out such junk with their products.

Cons: Huge download. Did not give me an option of which drive to load it on. Installs Steam first. What a bunch of trash. Why should I have to install Steam to install the game? Anti piracy I guess. Just more layers of junk and complexity. Then to top it off, when I try to run the game, its says "Preparing to Launch" and that's all I get. No game. Now I have to waste time looking for a solution to fix a game which has poor ratings to begin with.

Overall Review: Don't waste your time or money on this unless you want to practice your software troubleshooting skills.
