Pros: I've had mine for several years now, used in X-Plane, Flight Simulator, and Battlefield 2 for aircraft and it's always worked fine. I was a little surprised to see they still sell them, but fact is - mine works so well that if I needed another one, I'd probably get this very same unit!

Cons: The throttle feels a little cheap, but look at the price - you're not dropping a hundred+ on one of those high-end units here or anything.

Overall Review: More than worth the money

Pros: Astonishingly fast for GPGPU (7800ppd Folding at Home with advmethods/Core16, 290 Mhash/sec Bitcoin) and great for DirectX games. Easily overclocked to 950mhz with the Sapphire Trixx tool at stock voltage, 1010mhz overvolted, making it faster than the HD6870. Never went over 76C although the fan noise was getting up there when O/C'd and bitcoin mining.

Cons: ATI still has driver compatibility problems, especially with the more rare games, like OpenGL ones. I got this card to improve my X-Plane experience (an OpenGL game) and although it was fast, it crashed at least 7 times in the roughly 10 hours of gameplay I used it for. This compared to maybe 1 crash every 30 hours with Nvidia. ATI drivers continue to be a weak spot.

Overall Review: Fantastically fast card for the money and cheap enough that you can sell it for more than you paid for it on newegg if you don't like it.

Pros: Even though my PC is getting old (Haswell) this memory worked just fine right out of the box. I hopped in UEFI and set the memory profile to XMP and it picked up all the settings, matching what the box says it should be. Passed an all-night memory check.

Cons: None

Pros: It's fast, reliable, and hasn't failed in the first month.

Cons: None

Pros: Works a lot better than the stock heatsink in both thermal and acoustic performance. The fan is decently quiet at the lowest RPM my motherboard can bring it down to, which is one of the main reasons I even bother with aftermarket heatsinks.

Cons: As others have alluded to, the install isn't exactly like popping in the CPU or a new video card. Having done a number of these over the years I just resign myself to spending some time laying the parts out and kind of test-fitting the install before applying thermal grease and doing it for real. It's still nothing I would complain about though, at most the install is a mild irritation.

Overall Review: I did the install on an open bench. Would never attempt to install one of these ridiculous things with the mobo already in the case although I guess maybe in theory it's possible. None of these tower HSFs are much fun to install, but of the 4 or 5 I've done over the years, this one was by no means the hardest, but certainly not as easy as the old school heatsinks you just clipped on to existing HSF clamps from the mid 2000's. It seemed fair enough to me.

Pros: Easy setup, has been reliable for the 3 months or so since I purchased it.

Cons: None that I know of

Overall Review: I'm not sure what to say other than "It just works". For something as fundamentally important as a motherboard, that's a good thing.
