Pros: I've read all the previous comments and when the APC arrived I was a little concerned regarding noise. Well after three months, I can hear nothing and the PAC sits about two feet away. The mfgr date was FEb/18 so that may help. The system has operated exactly as advertised and was super easy to install and use. It has been quietly doing its job since I got it and even though I have had 3 "Events" I did not know it until I looked at the display.

Cons: This is probably a pretty petty "con" but I found that even when I turned off the unit, the "unprotected" outlets stayed on. (I like everything to shut down when I hit the "off" button.)

Overall Review: For the sake of clarity I have 3 monitors, two printers, external HDD, home phone, 5.1 speaker system, desk lights, and of course my CPU attached and I have not even come close to using the full capacity! (I put the CPU, monitors, speakers and HDD on the back-up) I am using teh front USB for my Cell phone fast charge stand. Improvements? a couple of more front USB charging ports, inclusion of the free monitoring software from APC with the documentation, and perhaps something to tell me my remaining battery life would be nice. For the price? Great product and highly recommend.

Met expectations, easy to install including software

ASRock Radeon RX 6700 XT Challenger D Gaming Graphic Card, 12GB GDDR6 VRAM, AMD RDNA2 (RX6700XT CLD 12G)

Pros: - price point - ease of installation - robust software - auto overclocking capability

Cons: - documentation to accompany software (help process) (unless you are conversant with all the intricacies of GPU, the help system does not really explain what the various settings do. I suspect that this comment applies to all GPUs but I am not certain.)

Overall Review: The GPU is operating as expected and at C&550.00 is a good value. Newegg exceeded expectations and the card was delivered several days earlier than promised. I was a little disappointed in the software documentation; however, this is more an industry issues than card specific. I have always been an AMD/Radeon user and this card continues to meet my expectations and appears to "play nice" with the gigabyte motherboard. Time will tell!

For the price? Great product and highly recommend. My original review was published in late 2018. This update is provided 31 Dec 20 The APC BR1000MS continues to operate flawlessly. There is zero noise and it has "stepped" in on a number of occasions without missing a beat. I still maintain a great product and strongly recommend.
