Pros: Build quality. Quiet. Accessories. Works great.

Cons: none

Overall Review: I am using this on an Asrock FM2A85X-ITX. Officially it is not supported, however I was able to mount it using the intel no-back plate bolts and the AMD spacers and crossbars. Heatpipes touch the VR heatsink but does not cause any non-cosmetic issues. I have this mounted in a Silverstone SG05 case on an a8-5600k processor. I am using the 120mm fan to replace the stock Silverstone intake fan. This has dropped my CPU temps under load by 10-15 degrees from the stock HS/Fan.

Pros: None

Cons: Failed in less than 3 months

Overall Review: Started to fail at about 45 days, that's 15 days outside the warranty for refurbished devices. Luckily I was able to order a replacement (SanDisk Ultra Plus 128Gig) and was able to dupe the corsair over to it before it completely failed.

Pros: Small Silent Power Light not overly bright

Cons: Molex connector length is very short.

Overall Review: I haven't experienced any RF interference like reported by others. I had to use an molex extension cable to power the internal USB hub. Cable was way to short to reach the bottom of the case, which was the only place I could fit the hub. Build is tight, but the cables can be managed if you are careful and temperatures don't hit 70 degrees under full load.

Pros: Lower Power Usage Passively Cooled

Cons: BIOS that shipped on board only supported Windows 8.

Overall Review: Had to flash BIOS to load any other OS besides Windows 8. Considering the market this board is targeted at, that is a pretty huge over site. Once flashed it is running like a champ. Silent and cool. Highest CPU temp I've seen is 63 degrees, and that is during software decoding uncompressed 1080P MPEG-4 and DTSHD-MA. Temps run closer to 50 degrees with HW acceleration for video playback.

Pros: Noctua NH-L12 cooler fits if you use the Intel no back plate mounting bolts with the AMD spacers and locking bars.

Cons: Not officially supported. I got the idea from reading reviews on the cooler and motherboard.

Overall Review: Dropped my CPU temps by about 10 degrees Celsius under load. (For load I am using handbrake to encode an unencrypted bluray to 720p h.264). Cooler does not block PCI-Express slot or RAM but the heatpipes do bump against the VR heatsink. Enough room above the Vengence LP Ram that they can be removed/replaced without removing the cooler.
