Purchased mostly for streaming PC games to big screen
Pros: Does what is says and does it well. By far the best android tv on the market. Everything is instant including streaming 4k Christmas deal inc both the remote & the stand
Cons: WATCH out for the controller button issues....If you get the back button or volume button bug... do a controller reset as it may work for you.
Overall Review: Newegg has always been great to me & no different on this purchase. I had a faulty controller & they shipped me an entire unit as a replacement with a paid label &..... they shipped me the new unit BEFORE i returned the new one with no charge to me. I can think of one other company that does this, and that is evga. BRAVO Newegg.
Three days before top fan started making noise.
Pros: None
Cons: They suck really bad. Noise after three days on top fan. If you hit it every 5 minutes its OK. Just get an open case so you can keep hitting the fan....
Overall Review: New Egg to the rescue. A few days out of rma and they still refunded me as i purchased the CORSAIR CMXAF2 Fan & Heat sinks which is much better then this junk.
Been through he double hockey sticks with 970's before this card
Pros: Smooth as silk compared to the 970. OC to 1500mhz without having to increase the voltage. Card is a power house. Sli when 2nd card arrives then finally 4k is within reach. No AA needed at 4k and when dx12 hits the scaling on SLI will be greatly increased. Two of these GPU's plus dx12 and nothing will punish your rig.
Cons: Had to purchase a back plate separately on a premium GPU.
Overall Review: Had to 970 in sli constant stutter at soon at the vram came close to 3.5. I dislike AMD so this was the only option. If you are comparing the 970 with this card dont. Do your research about the vram issus as it is much more then just a segmented memory pool. The 2nd segment runs at 1/7 the speed compared to the first.
What the original FTW should have been! UPDATE***
Pros: see update below
Cons: Great cards when you are running 1 but major stuttering when in sli. Posted all over the net. Do your research before you SLI these cards.
Overall Review: returned for 980's no sli issues with 980's
Carved in Stone?
Pros: Purchased it for 1 reason, and thats M-Disk. Want my photos, all 10 gigabytes to last in a safe without degradation and thats what this drive is meant for.
Cons: Dual layer & M-Disk BR will be out soon so the drive will be obsolete before it's 1st birthday.
Not worth it's weight
Pros: None
Cons: Purchased this to change the TIM on my aging EVGA 560TI's Did 1 to see how it would affect it and the temps stayed the same. Either EVGA used realy good TIM on these cards which i doubt or this is just an average TIM. Nothing special here....
Overall Review: 1 Tube barely covered the GPU heatsink.
