Outstanding quality; Super quiet!!!

Pros: - Wide PWM range - SUPER quiet in low to mid PWM range - (supposedly) very reliable motor
Cons: Loud at high PWM... BUT it moves LOT of air at the same time! Honestly, it may not even be fair to note this as a con, because it's just science that the faster you move air, the louder it will be.
Overall Review: Look, this is just an awesome fan. The 'con' above isn't really fair. It would be more useful to compare the 'air moved' per 'noise' vs the competition. My suspicion is that this fan is at the high end of that comparison. Comparing a fan at high speed to silent is not a useful endeavor. I have this fan (and the 120mm version) in my server and desktop and I can say that they are in fact silent unless gaming. The crowd complaining about noise are probably not using appropriate speed curves and aren't performing a valid comparison. Do yourself a favor and spend the cash; you'll be happy with the investment. For what it's worth, I don't write many reviews. I thought this product was worth it. Just sayin'
Wow!

Pros: - SILENT (even when gaming, usually) - 10 year warranty (who provided a 10 year warranty on anything anymore?) - Fantastic support (read below) - Fully modular
Cons: Price? Initial price is high (even with a deal). BUT, it will pay for itself with increased efficiency AND it comes with piece of mind (10 year warranty), so, no cons.
Overall Review: The thing is silent, but honestly. Even when I game, the fan doesn't run. I'm using a Ryzen 7 3700X, 64GB RAM, and an Sapphire RX580 8GB Pulse. It is so nice to have a silent PSU. My unit made a sound similar to coil whine. Contacted support, which was quick to respond and help. They had me record some audio and determined I should send it back and they initiated an RMA. It's nice to deal with a company that will stand behind their warranty. I was even able to keep original while waiting for replacement. I'm just really impressed. I will have not purchased three more SuperNOVAs (of different wattage) UPDATE: The replacement model had the same sound. Neither tech support nor I could figure out what was causing the issue but it seemed to be something between my system and the G5, so they sent an upgrade! They upgraded me from the 850 G5 to the 850 GA. No more noise, and a VERY impressed customer. I, for one, will be purchasing EVGA for the foreseeable future. Bravo.

Overall Review: The thing is silent, but honestly. This runs a server and the fan doesn't spin up at all, even at start up! I'm running a Xeon 1230v3 with 5 WD Red HDDs. My 850W SuperNOVA (not the one I'm reviewing) made a sound similar to coil whine. Contacted support, which was quick to respond and help.

Great value

Pros: - easily drive multiple 4k monitors for everyday use, smoothly - quiet when not in use - 4k and 2k gaming - AMD, 'cause who doesn't like the underdog - flawless Linux support (with open source driver)
Cons: [scratches head]
Overall Review: I use Linux as my desktop OS. This card works out of the box with Ubuntu. I haven't used the proprietary driver and can game anyway. That said, I did dual-boot and found that I could play most of my games at 4k or 2k just fine. Not a serious gamer, but this card is pretty awesome for the price. My system is a Ryzen 7 3700X with 64GB Memory. OpenCL - I was going to write some python programs using OpenCL to do hashing faster than my CPU. But, then I discovered that you have to use the proprietary driver for OpenCL to access the GPU. Lame. I believe that is also true for team green.
Really impressed!

Pros: - Efficient use of cubic footage. Really appreciate the effort to make this case small and useful - Great airflow - Love the magnetic screens; easy to clean - Looks classy. Seems difficult to find a functional (and not flashy) case anymore - USB3 in convenient location
Cons: - would prefer an option for glass instead of plastic window - included fan is ---NOT--- PWM. I replaced with my own anyway, but might have stuck with the one provided if it was PWM - the great airflow means extra noise unless you invest in quiet fans. For me, that was worth it. And since it provides a pro, I'm not sure it can be considered a con.
Overall Review: Highly recommended case. Same size as the MicroATX case, but with room for ATX! I just love it. The build quality is great and the included cable management is easy to use. I've paid more for cases that I liked less.
