Great modular power supply

Pros: - Black wires, even the 24pin ATX wires are all black - Eco mode allows for semi-fanless mode - Decent number of EVGA velcro wire straps - Flat cables
Cons: - Cables are a bit stiff, need to really work it to do cable management - They gave 2 GPU cables but both had 2 8 pin connectors at one end. My GPU only needed 1. So I plugged the GPU end at the PSU and plugged the PSU end on the GPU so I could hide the extra connector in the back of my case. Wished they had provided one cable with two 8 pin connector and one with just one.
Overall Review: - 80 plus gold and semi modular design, what else can you ask for. Only the 24 pin motherboard connector is built in so it is sensible design
Who needs the FTW cards

Pros: - Amazing thermal performance (maxed mine at 40c at 23c ambient after 30min of Unigine Heaven) - Boost clocks overboosts to 1900mhz on it's own. - Stable OC at 2164 mhz (could've won the silicon lottery here) and 8706mhz for the memory - White led for EVGA and Hybrid logo is subtle and tasteful
Cons: - Micron GDDR5 chip, became unstable after I tried to push it past 8706mhz, buddy with Samsung chip in his 1070 FTW ACX 3.0 pushed past 9200 mhz. - Backplate doesn't have LEDs - Cannot control blower fan & radiator fan independently -Radiator fan is noisy even on lowest setting (has a whining noise, replacing with Corsair SP120 fan)
Overall Review: - Great value for performance, was able to OC mine faster than my friends FTW 1070 which has a two 8 pin power supply vs this board. (I could've gotten lucky with the silicon lottery so results may vary) - Temperature is no where close to what it used to be on my GTX 760 SC ACX 2.0 card (around 75c under full load at 80% fan speed) as the 1070 sits at about 40c max under load. -Radiator fan has an annoying whine. Thought it was my AIO cooler for my CPU, but it was the GPU radiator fan. I am replacing mine with a corsair SP120 as it gets annoying after about an hour - Kinda wished they put a 90 degree elbow so it would be easier to route the hoses from the card to the back of the case (where they recommend to install the radiator). Being picky there but it is a nice card. Would highly recommend just getting this vs the FTW hybrid as I got amazing performance out of mine. This card is not part of the VRM issue that EVGA is kinda dealing with
Great price to performance

Pros: - It works - Fast data speeds, perfect as a boot disk
Cons: - Does feel a bit cheap, guess it doesn't matter once it is installed
Overall Review: - Highly recommend, great capacity and hasn't caused any issues yet. Been happy with it
Shiny lights

Pros: - They light up! - Very well machined heatsink - Looks sleek
Cons: - The LED don't have much control options, they don't sync up if left on the default "breathing" mode. - Heatsink had a lot more flex than I expected - Price premium for the LEDs
Overall Review: Not necessary if on the fence on getting Vengeance LPX vs this, not sure if the LED was worth the premium Looks good in a windowed case, LED are even and bright but not overly done, they're not just led bulbs stuck in between the gap
They work

Pros: - They work, ordered 3 and 3 of my monitors are working
Cons: - they're white
Overall Review: -Ordered 3 because of previous reviews on failed cables as I would be okay if one failed. All 3 worked so I filled up all my displayports up to run my triple monitor. Drives 1920x1080 @ 60hz no problems at all with audio being driven through the cables too. -Great value, would purchase again if I need more cables in the future
Great Value for what you get

Pros: - ROG board - Sleek design, works well with most cases - USB 3.1 support -Has support for nitrogen cooling (I wouldn't ever use it but good bragging points) -About the same price as the Z170-A board
Cons: - No RBG lighting like the more expensive boards - PCI-E slots are not reinforced
Overall Review: - Good value for a ROG board, good mix of features although I still don't understand why there is still sata express ports. - no support for asus aura lighting, wish there was the pin out for that - comes with 4 sata cables only, I had 6 sata devices to plug in -happy with my purchase
