Gsync HDR for the rest Aorus

Pros: -Excellent colors, accuracy, and brightness -Built like a friggin tank (metal stand! And a handle!) -Forced Gsync works like a charm even if it isn't on the compatible list yet -Looks great in person and doesn't overdo the 'gamers' aesthetic -HDR400 does make hdr content pop a bit more and isn't just marketing fluff. But don't expect a miraculous revelation.

Cons: -Not $1500, but not cheap either. -Some backlight bleed in the corners, but acceptable and better than other ips panels

Overall Review: I like it

Great kit! Very pleased with the results

Antec PRIZM 120 ARGB 3+2+C 120mm Case Fan w/ Fan Controller & ARGB LED Strips (3 in 1 pack)

Pros: - All in one rgb solution. No software, no separate accessories needed. - Really like the look of the halo ring on the fans. Looks great for exhaust as it won't highlight the ugly hub arms like other transparent rgb fans do. - LED strips are conveniently magnetic so you don't even have to use the stickers.

Cons: - LEDs are a little stroby at the slower light pattern speeds.

Overall Review: Quality kit, definitely recommended.

Nothing but happy thoughts

SAPPHIRE DUAL-X Radeon R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100364BF4L
SAPPHIRE DUAL-X Radeon R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100364BF4L

Pros: Comes with BF4 Runs it beautifully. Is quiet and cool

Cons: I could run benchmark programs at 1200 core 1500 mem, but it made bf4 crash. Temp was around 65-67 C.

Overall Review: Hopefully bf4 stability will improve with a few more patches so I can run the card overclocked. It probably doesn't need it though The card is actually shorter than my old 4850. This card smokes it. Running bf4 ultra 1080p 2x aa. Feels like 60 fps.
