Works on eVGA GTX 480!

ZALMAN VF3000F(GTX580/570) EBR Bearing Dual 92mm Fans, FanMate 2, IHD Technology for Nvidia Fermi GTX580/570 VGA Cooler
ZALMAN VF3000F(GTX580/570) EBR Bearing Dual 92mm Fans, FanMate 2, IHD Technology for Nvidia Fermi GTX580/570 VGA Cooler

Pros: Excellent Cooler!! Here are the temps for all stock settings... on ambient temp of 70F ran for 15 min each. load temp I used kumbuster eVGA reference cooler: Idle - 70c, PCB 44c Load - 92c keep in mind, the fan was on auto, but went up to 74% 3200rmp's which is pretty loud. Zalman VF3000F (not using fan mate) Idle 31c, pcb 29c Load 66c, pcb 35c It's so much quieter and cooler! It matches my Zalman CNPS-9500 nVidia edition! (I love green) The GTX 480 + VF3000F = a strong contender for current gen cards. Props to Newegg too... I ordered this on the 29th of Feb and it arrived March 1st!! Today is March 2nd and I installed it as soon as I woke up. :-)

Cons: The power plub only has the 3 connectors. I wish it had 4 so you can control the fan without the fanmate. I really hope Zalman makes their future coolers with it. That's not enough for me to take an egg off... sorry. I LOVE ZALMAN!

Overall Review: Just want to let you know that this card uses one less screw than the GTX 570/580 card. That way you don't feel like you missed something. Very simple!! I used the included thermalpaste on all the ram sinks and little chips.. there are a bunch of them to cover. I used Arctic Silver 5 paste for the GPU... I used Arctic Silver #1 & #2 thermal paste remove to get the old stuff on. Just take your time in doing it... if you need help, just follow removal instructions on videos online. OKAY, what are you waiting for? Order this... trust me. you will love it.. unless you are going to watercool ^_^

DOA Jabra 125 =(

Pros: I got my item pretty fast. Kudos to the egg.

Cons: I mainly got this for the headset and will probably not be playing the game. So bummed it doesnt even charge or power on. Its Dead.

Overall Review: Its over 5 years old... The battery in the headset probably just kicked the old bucket.

Frustrating cable

Pros: It works sometimes...

Cons: When loading windows 10 or csgo I occasionally get out of range. I have to turn monitor off and on to get it to display.

Overall Review: Tried another display port cable and had no problems. Maybe I just got a defective cable.

Awesome set of RAM!

G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C14Q-32GTZR

Pros: Works as advertised. Matching Sticks. Beautiful Colors! FAST RAM

Cons: The product itself is great but can't wait til RAM prices drop. We should be getting 64GB for this price... or close to it at least. Someday!!!

Overall Review: Check G Skills website to make sure it is compatible with your motherboard. I have this installed on a Asus Strix Z370 Gaming-E MOBO. Like others said, don't use the Gskill software and just use the Asus software.

Easy and simple to use with XMP

Pros: Works well with Z370 Mobo and i7-8700K. Beautiful lights. LIFETIME WARRANTY!

Cons: Identical kits purchased in pairs might not line up correctly.. If you purchased a pair and planned on buying another pair in the future, just go ahead and get the 4 pack instead. I had a 2nd set that was offset and lights weren't in sync.

Overall Review: This is the best ram I have purchased in years.

Pros: Read Previous review from me.

Cons: The last character for my product key wasn't printed out all the way... and was cut off. I was lucky to have been able to guess my key. Well, hopefully it wasn't someone else's key!!??

Overall Review: Product images of Newegg are not accurate. It shows this item which is shown as "Pro" version 1.7... the other screen shots that show "Premium" are in fact version 2.0. As I said in my previous review, you can update for free via malwarebytes website to version 2.0 which has a new friendlier interface. Also with a peace of mind having the lifetime license.
