Cons: Required me to update BIOS to get stable XMP/EXPO settings.

Overall Review: Paired this RAM with a Ryzen 9 9950X3D on an MSI X870 Gaming Wifi motherboard. Initial out-of-the-box timings were pretty bad and setting the 6000/30 timings in BIOS left me with a somewhat unstable machine. A few days later I ran a BIOS update on the MSI board to an image released in June and now it's all stable at 6000/30. RGB is fine and thankfully it doesn't require a separate cable, lol.

Pros: I find it generally works with the motherboard CPU header's curves and keeps temps reasonable even under stress. Build quality felt nice when attaching it to case and motherboard.

Cons: There's a LOT of pump noise.

Overall Review: - Pump noise sucks pretty bad. With a headset on you really don't notice it but without it you absolutely do. I replaced an old Corsair H150 with this and it's got a droning noise that doesn't go away. As a side bar I opted for a top-mounted radiator in a Lian Li O11D RGB case so I'm not doing that thing GamersNexus warned us against. - Unfortunately I haven't setup the RGB yet cause I need extra cables but here's to hoping it even works.... Because of the noise I'm giving it only "average" you can cover the sound with a headset and normal volume media (music/movies/games, etc) but it's definitely not a 5-star stellar performance.

Pros: - Seems to be quite stable. Fit my Lian Li O11D RGB without an issue. - The bracket includes multiple (4x) screw points where you can place the PCIe extension board. I'm glad that it did this as the length of the PCIe extension CABLE required me to move the extension board 1 space over which lets the GPU fit in without doing something weird with the cable.

Cons: I don't love how it has a bit of sag despite every possible support screw being attached. Thankfully the sag isn't the board of the GPU itself.

Overall Review: I suspect most of these type of products will have a sag. I think with modern case style(s) the bottom-mounted fans prevent us from using sag brackets to try and keep it all supported correctly. I still like it. I don't regret the buy, see point #1.

Pros: Runs everything I point it at VERY VERY well.

Cons: Requires a separate cable for RGB functionality. XFX's website did not hide this one bit but I didn't realize it until later. Needs 3 PCIe power cables, this wasn't an issue for me but I could see others having a problem with it.

Overall Review: I love the fact this doesn't use 12vHPWR. It does require 3x PCIe power connectors from your mobo so be prepared for that. It's a monster of a GPU and is easily 2x+ the size of the Gigabyte GTX1080 it replaced.

Pros: A monster of a processor

Cons: Can get a bit warm

Overall Review: If you do multitasking, workstation-like activities, and also like gaming this is a fusion of the best qualities of the 9950X and 9800X3D processors.

Pros: Nice method for linking them together. Reasonably good single cable management.

Cons: Software is literally trash. Doesn't include hub that it needs. Only the 3 pack comes with the adapter cable you need to not need their proprietary hub. Fans are not individually addressed so they just mirror despite all their marketing being misleading.

Overall Review: It's a shame these are advertised the way they are, they're trash.
