Awesome!

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 04G-P4-2972-KR 4GB GAMING w/ACX 2.0, Silent Cooling Graphics Card
EVGA GeForce GTX 970 04G-P4-2972-KR 4GB GAMING w/ACX 2.0, Silent Cooling Graphics Card

Pros: Smokes my old GTX 460 v2 SLI setup while using less power. Slim design. Overclocks well using EVGA's software. Minimal coil whine- can't hear it above case fans.

Cons: Less than half the cost of GTX 980 but I still don't have enough for two.

Overall Review: My FREE backplate already arrived. To register for FREE backplate: 1. go to EVGA's website 2. Create an account 3. Upload your invoice 4. Apply for FREE backplate 5. Wait for confirmation email. Simple as that. I guess I'm an EVGA fanboy but they've always done right by me Warranty wise.

Brought my Laptop back to Life!

G.SKILL 8GB (2 x 4GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model F3-8500CL7D-8GBSQ
G.SKILL 8GB (2 x 4GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500) Laptop Memory Model F3-8500CL7D-8GBSQ

Pros: This Memory and a Samsung SSD brought my 5yr. old Toshiba L505-S5984 back to life! Installed easily and recognized without going into BIOS. Win 8.1 boots in 15sec. and runs multiple applications effortlessly! Thank you G.Skill !

Cons: none yet.

Overall Review: Why did I wait so long?

Not as bad as everyone says

MSI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card N460GTX-M2D1GD5/OC2
MSI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card N460GTX-M2D1GD5/OC2

Pros: Yes it is a crippled GF114 but it's still newer technology than GF104, just as fast (with higher clocks) and uses less power.

Cons: Hard to find a matching one to SLI it with.

Overall Review: Sold it for almost as much as I bought it for while everyone was hating on it.

Worth the Extra Money

SAMSUNG 840 EVO  SAMSUNG 840 EVO 2.5" 120GB SATA III TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-7TE120BW

Pros: Fast for a consumer drive - Much faster than the SLOWER THAN ADVERTISED king*ston I bought originally and faster than the P*NY I bought after that.

Cons: Now you can get twice the storage for almost the same price - so much for early(ish) adopters.

Overall Review: Never thought SSD would make SUCH a difference!
