Best deal in town!!

Pros: Fast and efficient Amazing price. Stock cooler is great which saves you about $30 minimum.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: This CPU comes with a much better cooler than the Ryzen 5 2600. The heatsink is almost 2x the size...
Meh

Pros: It works It provides power to fans Looks nice
Cons: Cables are a mess Software you can install is not good Too many wires and they are too long The thermal indicators do not have a good system for attaching to devices
Overall Review: I used this thing for quite some time and I like the way it looks but I had so much trouble managing these cables. The software you can use is useless. I ended up taking it out of my case to clean up cables. I am still trying to figure out why the cables are so long for this unit. The tape that comes with it for attaching the thermal indicators is garbage.
Not great

Pros: Power over ethernet Inexpensive
Cons: For some reason this thing drops connections alot. I was not able to get the wifi SSID to clone so I ended up having 3 different SSID's in my house. Its not dual band.
Overall Review: I would not recommend this product based on my experience with it. It may work better with actual power plugged rather than PoE but that is kinda the whole selling point for an access point. The main reason I purchased this was the price and it is a very good price but it's just not good enough for my needs. It is too late to return it so it just sits there now...that's too bad cause I like TP-Link products.
Solid board

Pros: Nice heat sinks 4 DIMM Slots Looks nice I like the BIOS
Cons: The memory support is lacking for the Team Group RAM I bought. I tried a ton of settings to get it to reach 3000 or 2933 but I had to run them at stock.
Overall Review: This is a great board but make sure you check the RAM compatibility list. I ended up using different RAM since I was not getting the proper speeds on my other sticks. Other than that, I recommend this board for sure. I think ASRock is a great brand.
RGB

Pros: RGB Works with other cooler master RGB products. Quiet Inexpensive
Cons: None
Overall Review: This cooler looks great and works with my other CM RGB fans and controller. The cooling performance is nothing to write home about but I wanted something prettier than the stock intel cooler that is low profile and has RGB. This does exactly that. I am only cooling a Pentium chip with this. This cooler is meant for the low end chips in my opinion. If you have i3 or higher, I would by a bigger cooler. For a $15 cooler, I couldn't be happier.
Great board

Pros: Looks great Nice heatsinks Great header placement 4 DIMM slots Great price
Cons: The back lighting is a bit weird. I can only change the color of one LED.
Overall Review: This refurb was near perfect. I would buy this again.
