Pros: This is a nice and clean build that only requires some minor adjustments for the LED on the non heatsink fans to work. You can stick with the stock PSU and it will work fine as iv seen. Though I did exchange the gigabyte 750 gold it came with a EVGA gold 750 (you must change out all cables if you do this) as personal preference. The LED setup is a sight to behold it's a very nice setup and syncs well. It mentions this on quick start but you need to make sure there arnt loose connections for LED to work and to ensure the Comp is ok after shipping It's very snappy works excellently processor is a perfect pick for the GPU. Hardware is very future proof with alot of room for future upgrades with 128GB of Ram compatibility on Mobo with an LGA 1200 slot. This is Solid. 3 m.2 slots lots of space for very fast storage. And comes with an NVMe from Intel, they are very good at NVMe typically. They built this one very well no marks or scratches, no denting damage to the outside either. Iv seen the other reviews on this and they seem to be the minority. They take GPU weight into account with cable management, they are using the GPU PSU cables to help hold the unsupported end up so that it won't sag unessesarily prolonging the life of both the Mobo and the GPU lots of kudos for what might seem a tiny detail. It makes a huge difference. They seem to be listening to past reviews, they added or made sure that many of the things to address complaints of other reviewers were in the accessories bag that came with the build. They even had replaceable expansion slot covers for the back of the case which is a nice detail. One nice thing as well is essentially No bloat ware at all. Good straight out with a windows home OS.GPS. A HUGE PRO is thr fact you get a Garanteed EVGA FTW3 3080. This brand is literally the best brand for these cards and has top benchmarks performing on the highest ends of the 3080 performance range. Cannot be stated enough how good this is.

Cons: It is a very tight build that might need some adjusting on yoyr part. Particularly the Thermaltake radiator fans sit a bit too close for comfort to the RAM, you can give it a couple more millimeters of breathing room and adjust the radiator a bit higher by loosing adjusting and retighting screws holding it. Though it's still tight but not touching. (Mine wasn't touching the RAM but was just a hair width away so I adjusted it) You have to find the LED case connector and connect it to the Fan module behind the back panel of the case and then turn on LED with the button for case FAN LED to work at the very least. If you need to adjust cabling there is a decent chance the case will tear into the stock cabling with the Gigabyte PSU everything is very tight but understandably so when it comes to cable management. The expansion card slots on the back of the case not great due to the snapoff nature of them. Though this is minor as for me they provided 2 replaceable covers, I wish we could have replaceable covers for all those slots. (Might be able to get them from Roswell) I wish I could have forgon the windows OS at a discount. I Didn't need it and you can get legal licensing much cheaper than most would have you believe. Though this is not unique to them. And I get why they have to keep it generic (it's a bit of extra work and requires people to know linux to offer different OS and they need to test it some how to make sure it's working well) Can't really think of anything else. It's pretty awesome.

Overall Review: Overall excellent build, excellent parts. Decent price as well considering the insane market as of this post and the Chip shortage , especially for GPUs. I highly recommend if you need an update on your hardware and can spend the cash for it. As of this post it is a great bang for buck. Thank you guys at ABS for having such a good acumen for what people really want. Top notch.

Pros: its big the zippers are smooth has a lot of pockets and is a lot of storage, also has padded protection for sensitive gear. Steel cable reinforced carrying handle, very durable and rugged pack as well. Over all a good pack.

Cons: The only issue iv had is the need to tape up loose straps that dangle or drag on the ground. Its probably just my Marine Corps OCD kicking in but thats only con iv found, it seriously is a great pack.

Excellent Machine.

Pros: the pros are numerous, its a very powerful laptop, and worth the price for the power. the blue ray optical drive is defiantly a plus. It runs everything on ultra that iv tested so far the back light keyboard is amazing you can customize the light behind it as well. All in all i am very satisfied with my purchase. Highly recommended for any gamer or heavy media user.

Cons: The only true con is windows 8 in my personal opinion if you like windows 8 then your golden.

Overall Review: This laptop is defiantly meant for the heavy gamer/ media user. If your looking to get a laptop for business purposes only look else where, but if your a gamer and want the general purpose of a laptop as well this is the perfect choice.
