Most Favorable Review

This is an excellent product. Very please

EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 06G-P4-4995-KR 6GB SC+ GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 06G-P4-4995-KR 6GB SC+ GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card

Pros: I just built my first computer and the installation of this graphics card went extremely well and extremely fast. I could not be more pleased that I bought this card over the 980 regulars. It is a very quiet card as well. My computer is so quiet these days, it is scary. Sometimes I need to check just to make sure it is on.

Cons: No cons other than all the plastic you have to peel off. I hope I got everything!!!

Overall Review: I would highly recommend this product to anyone, experienced computer builders and first time builders. When plugging the power in, make sure you fill up all of the power plug spots with the right plugs. I left the 6 hole plug empty and when I booted the computer, it had a message on the screen "Plug in the power to this video card". I was pretty amazed. I plugged in the 6 plug and now I am cruising. I downloaded 3d Mark, just the demo version and scored a 14,400 on it, I think. Firestorm? I saw a Carey Holzman video and he had a computer that scored a 14,200 so I figured I had every installed correctly.

Pros: I don;t know. It's a chair. It worked fine until it broke,.

Cons: Wheel broke after 1 year 9 months. I'm no where near 400 pounds.

Overall Review: I am unable to give a solid review.

Absolutely great for gaming - My review is kind of late

MSI Gaming Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ATX Graphics Card RX 7900 XTX GAMING TRIO CLASSIC 24G
MSI Gaming Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ATX Graphics Card RX 7900 XTX GAMING TRIO CLASSIC 24G

Pros: 4K plays very nicely on this card. I have had virtually no issues - the one issue I list below in the cons. I built a computer about 2 years before the game Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 came out to specifically play the game. I knew it would need better than my nVidia 3070 so I planned. And it makes the game very nice. Depending on settings I get well over 100 FPS for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. I'm playing with it on high settings at 4K because there was a little lag, but the game might be the cause. The first KCD had a little bit of lag. So,,, it still runs it very nice. And any other game, but I tend not to get the newest games.

Cons: OK, so the only issues which may not even be issues for you, I don't know. There was a little coil whine at first, but I wear headphones so I don't even notice if it is happening anymore. The 2nd issue was I was get a lot of BSOD or "Windows needs to restart because of a technical crash" or whatever the message was. I read that AMD cards can run hot and that may be an issue. And let me tell you, the heat it was putting off was incredible. So, using the AMD Adrenalin program I undervolted the GPU. And my crashes stopped immediately. I have never overclocked or undervolted anything except maybe the RAM so I know it may void the warranty or whatever the message AMD tells you when you go to do it, but the card is over 4 years old or so by this point, I think. The heat coming off of the card went ways down as well. So I think that fixed the issue with crashing. It runs like a charm now. No problems with any game.

Overall Review: OK, so if the price was the same as when I bought it, I might buy it again, but the 9070XT is about $750 right now with almost as good FPS performances as this card. And I bought this card for $1000. So, I don't think it is a good deal over $1000 probably not even a good deal over $900. But, it is a great card. Right now the list price of this card is $1,599. I wouldn't buy it at that price. You can get an nVidia 5080 at that price. But!!! I am very happy with my purchase.

Great Product, only have one issue...

ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi) ATX Motherboard with PCIe 4.0, Dual M.2, 12+2 with Dr. MOS Power Stage, HDMI, DP, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2 and Aura Sync RGB Lighting
ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi) ATX Motherboard with PCIe 4.0, Dual M.2, 12+2 with Dr. MOS Power Stage, HDMI, DP, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.2 Gen 2 and Aura Sync RGB Lighting

Pros: Pros: Well, it WAS easy for me to set up. But that is because I resea4rched and researched and found the issues with the Wifi and Bluetooth beforehand. So, I built my computer, it did indeed post and go into BIOS. I then disabled the Wifi and Bluetooth. Updated the BIOS from 2407? to 2816. The earlier one was from 07/2020 and the newer one from 11/2020. Got Windows to load. Enabled the Wifi (left Bluetooth disabled). Wifi worked (even without the antenna for this part). Updated all drivers. I had trouble with the case, but that is for another review. This board, even though I had read bad reviews has worked very well for me. I watched Hardware Unboxed and it said the VRM was really good for this motherboard. And that was why I went with it. I read about the Wifi bugs later.

Cons: Ok, I am giving it 4 stars. Because even though I like the motherboard and it has worked really well and it set up pretty easy for me, there is one issue. The wifi. I am using the antenna now, but the Wifi is getting slower speeds than my previous computer's owner installed (me) wifi. I bought the best Wifi card I could find in 2016 and it worked really well for me. The wifi on this is not giving me the same speeds. So, 1 egg off.

Overall Review: Would I recommend? Yes. I would but I would suggest get without Wifi and install your own. I know a lot of gamers like to use ethernet so this won't even be an issue for them, but some of us need it. Other than that, top notch ASUS.

Excellent product. I'd definitely buy these again if not upgrading.

Overall Review: No complaints whatsoever. The memory is a little dated, though. I'd probably get Corsair 3000 or 3200, if bought again.

Very good!

360-degree Rotating Microphone Stand Dual Mic Clip Boom Arm Foldable Tripod
360-degree Rotating Microphone Stand Dual Mic Clip Boom Arm Foldable Tripod

Pros: I have to give it 5 eggs because it does everything I ever wanted or needed at a very nice price. I used to have one of the ones that latched on to the desk, but the clamp wasn't too good, so I decided to get a stand that stood on the floor. The telescoping arm puts the microphone right in front of my face.

Cons: I have no cons.

Overall Review: I recommend this to anyone moving from desk clamped arm to standing mount. Others might find it a little low range, but it is perfect for amateur usage.
