Most Favorable Review

Been running since Ryzen Release

ASUS Prime X370-Pro AM4 AMD X370 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI ATX Motherboards - AMD
ASUS Prime X370-Pro AM4 AMD X370 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI ATX Motherboards - AMD

Pros: Smooth running motherboard without a single issue. Easy setup and overclocking abilities. Board has the best combination of features and price Board ascetics work well with any custom builder color schemes and RGB lighting Aura sync works flawlessly. Q-Connector is actually pretty useful for installing front panel wiring. It simplifies the install. Extremely stable with Ryzen 7 1800X and Corsair Vengeance LED 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3000 Currently own and runing 4 of these boards and all are running fine.

Cons: Absolutely None!

Not A Good Choice

WD Red Plus 3TB NAS Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM Class SATA 6Gb/s, CMR, 64MB Cache, 3.5 Inch - WD30EFRX
WD Red Plus 3TB NAS Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM Class SATA 6Gb/s, CMR, 64MB Cache, 3.5 Inch - WD30EFRX

Pros: None to speak of at this time.

Cons: This drive can be seen in the Bios. Initially Windows 8.1 saw the drive as well when trying to initialize it gave an I/O error and would not partition. then it tried to partition but would not format. Now the drive can not be seen by Windows at all. Although the bios sees it fine. I have tried using multiple programs for trying to recover this drive, but with no luck.

Overall Review: In the Future it would be wiser to check more of the feedback. WD has a great reputation and I went with my gut feeling. having had so much good luck with their drives I really wasn't expecting catastrophic failure before 1st use.

3 1/2 years and not one problem

CORSAIR RM Series RM1000 1000 W ATX12V v2.4 and EPS 2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC Power Supply
CORSAIR RM Series RM1000 1000 W ATX12V v2.4 and EPS 2.92 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: I have been running this power supply now for 3.5 years and have not had a single issue with it handling anything I throw at it. easy to work with and still going strong. currently running duel 1080 TI , Ryzen 1800x with 64gig ram, 9 terabytes HD space, duel Blueray burners, , H115I cooling system, and 9 cooling fans, not to mention 5 RGB light strips.

Cons: Absolutely none

Overall Review: Highly recommend this power supply for any build.

Best Coolr Ever

Corsair Hydro Series H100i GTX Extreme Performance Water / Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm (CW-9060021-WW)
Corsair Hydro Series H100i GTX Extreme Performance Water / Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm (CW-9060021-WW)

Pros: Absolutely best cooling across the board. Running a AMD 9590 at 5ghz keeps it at 89 degrees when not taxed and 108 when taxed completely out. HAs been in my system nearly 2 years with out a single problem.

Cons: NONE

Overall Review: Be sure when installing fans you are pulling air into system not trying to push it out.

One Sweet Ride!

AMD FX-9590 Vishera 4.7GHz Socket AM3+ 220W 8-Core Desktop Processor - Black Edition FD9590FHHKWOX with Liquid Cooling Kit

Pros: So I decided to go all out. What a great decision!! The 9590 is performing incredibly. Started to play with OC a little and pulled it to 6.0 Ghz without a hitch!! All bench tests are through the roof!

Cons: None

Recomended for All

CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Extreme Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm
CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Extreme Performance Water/Liquid CPU Cooler. 240mm

Pros: This is one sweet cooling system designed to control four fans as well that only respond as needed. I have the 2 fans that came with pushing air up and 2 200mm case fans drawing it through. all controlled by the cooler. They only come as needed and start slow and quiet and spin up just enough to cool her back down. Very important on my AMD 9590. Definitely not disappointed with quality of this cooling system.

Cons: none.

Overall Review: lol even the pump lights up in my case so it adds to the overall effect.
