Top Notch Card

MSI GeForce GTX 960 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support ATX Graphics Card GTX 960 2GD5T OC
MSI GeForce GTX 960 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support ATX Graphics Card GTX 960 2GD5T OC

Pros: Price, Performance, Volume - Very inexpensive - runs a great majority of games (including Battlefield 4 and Project CARS) at ultra and high settings respectively - VERY quiet fans. They are unnoticeable even on full load

Cons: Size - very long card, am able to put two fingers between the end and the HDD bays

Overall Review: Quite a good bang for your buck. I'm going to buy another for SLI, as they are SLI ready (2-way).

Excellent Performance for an Excellent Price.

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X - Ryzen 9 5000 Series Vermeer (Zen 3) 12-Core 3.7 GHz Socket AM4 105W None Integrated Graphics Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000061WOF
AMD Ryzen 9 5900X - Ryzen 9 5000 Series Vermeer (Zen 3) 12-Core 3.7 GHz Socket AM4 105W None Integrated Graphics Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000061WOF

Pros: - Clock speed of 4.7GHz out of the box - Quick, consistent multicore/single core performance - Affordable (at MSRP)

Cons: Many older AM4 motherboards need a BIOS update before this CPU will become compatible. Make sure your BIOS is up to date before removing your old CPU.

Overall Review: Not quite worth an upgrade from a 3900x (~10 - 15% performance increase), but from anything else, go for it. It's also worth noting that an aftermarket air cooler was used for this CPU and not the Prism cooler that traditionally ships with modern AMD CPUs. The Prism cooler was, however, quite good on the 3900x I had previously.

Runs Good But Runs Hot.

EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 06G-P4-4998-RX 6GB CLASSIFIED GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 06G-P4-4998-RX 6GB CLASSIFIED GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate Graphics Card

Pros: A very sturdy graphics card. Runs well under any circumstances and fits just fine in SLI configuration. Picked it up for just over $500 refurbished, haven't noticed any severe issues yet.

Cons: The fans are quite loud (not an issue for a headphone user such as myself) and it does run rather hot. Under load, even though it's got more breathing room than the other 980Ti in the case, it still runs about 20°C hotter. Both cards stay under 80 but this one only just.

Overall Review: An excellent card for the price.

Exceptional Monitor

Pros: - The high refresh rate allows for very smooth PC gaming and motion blur free console gaming. - Low response time means zero input lag - very bright, crisp 1080p display

Cons: - actual stand is kinda cheap - random dead pixel that has somehow fixed itself after two months of use

Overall Review: Will definitely be buying two more in the coming months. Excellent monitor.

Solid Card

EVGA 02G-P4-2761-KR G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Incredible performance for the price. Runs any game I have on ULTRA at 1080p. Upgraded to a 960 for SLI, but alone this card is fantastic. GREAT buy. Extremely power efficient and quiet.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: Recommend SLI for best experience.

If I could rate this seller lower, I would.

Pros: none Cons: The mobo had at least four pins in the CPU socket bent beyond repair. I packaged it back up and sent it back, only to have the seller say it was my fault. I did not get a refund, and so far they haven't sent back the part. Aweful service, will never order from this seller again.
