Pros: -Great performance for the price -Looks great (back plate looks sweet) -Stays cool -Easy to OC(can't push it too high however) -Reliable thus far -Amazing upgrade if you have old hardware
Cons: -Power consumption can push 200+watts overclocked, make sure you have a good power supply -Not a huge range for OC -Pretty big (mid towers beware, full size are fine)
Overall Review: Overall I'm very pleased with this card. My PC is pushing 4-5 years old, and this really helped out a ton with gaming performance. My PC is as follows: AMD FX 8150 @ 4.5ghz Corsair H60 cooler Corsair HX 850 PSU 16GB Hyper X 1800mhz ASUS M5A99X Evo motherboard MSI RX 480 8bg 250GB Samsung 850 SSD 1TB WD Black I upgraded to the single RX480 from two 7850s in crossfire x, and it was an insane jump. I can play Shadows of Mordor at 4K res with 35-50fps, Rocket League at 4K with 75-90 fps, and GTA 5 in 4K with around 40-50 fps (AA turned off). At this point my CPU and memory are bottlenecking my GPU of its full potential. Waiting for the Zen to drop then going with new CPU/MOBO/DDR 4 and another RX 480 for crossfire. This card, to me, feels like it was made for 2k gaming. Every game I play on 2k res easily pulls 80-100+fps depending on game, and looks insanely smooth on my 27inch 144hz monitor. While it still allows for some very nice 4K gaming, I think a second card would be needed to unlock higher fps. Also probably not worth getting two unless your CPU and everything is good to go (i5-i7 or FX 8350+ etc). But for the price of two being about the same as a 1070, with the performance in crossfire matching that or greater than a 1080, easily worth it. Overall, I'm loving this card!
Great!

Pros: Booted straight to EXPO profile, zero issues
Cons: None!
Overall Review: 10/10, looks great, runs phenomenal!
Wow!

Pros: On first startup my temps are already 10-15C lower than on air, even with my air having a copper heatsink. Under a full load i never see over 50C with my 8150 overclocked to 4.2ghz. Loooove this cooler!
Cons: None!
Awesome!

Pros: Love the modular design. The cables you will certainly use aren't modular however, but its only 4 cables. The rest is plug-in! Looooove the velvet bag and everything that came with it, made the power supply feel special.
Cons: None!
Great!

Pros: Fired right up. Moves lots of air while looking great! The Blue LED's are fairly bright, makes the inside of the case look amazing.
Cons: The adapters that come with them are kinda cheap, but that's not worth dropping an egg over.
Amazing!

Pros: Everything's super tight and awesome. Paint looks great, handles are awesome, lots of room!
Cons: None!
Overall Review: Great Case!
