Pros: Runs at the speed thats advertised and they have never blue screened on me.
Cons: They haven't built me a boat.
Overall Review: Ive owned these for several years of every day use. Gaming mostly. First time I've ever bought Mushkin and I'm very pleased with the product. They will certainly be on my list of brands when I look to upgrade.
No complaints here
Pros: Great look and great build quality. Decent air flow.
Cons: Can't put 3 140mm fans on the front. And I wish there was a mounting spot for a bottom fan.
Overall Review: I'm coming to this case from a.... well it was a cheap but it works type of case. I'm very impressed with the build quality of this case. There are no sharp edges and the noise baffling seems to make a difference. Unlike what another review said there are removable dust filters on sides and bottom of the front panel. Although I am thinking of removing them to increase airflow. Had I known before that there was a high airflow version of this case I probably would have gone with that one but I'm happy with this one for now.
Ryzen 3600
Pros: Works well at stock speed. 10-20c cooler than stock cooler. Looks great. And doesn't have any gaudy lights.
Cons: Thermal paste it comes with is not sufficient if your overclocking while running prime 95 at 4.2 ghz cpu Temps skyrocket (100c) while the cooler remains cool to the touch.
Overall Review: If your going to get this get a high quality thermal paste along with it. I have yet to overclock my cpu with the kryonaut paste I recently received but running prime 95 at stock speeds it stays at 70c or less while boosting to around 3.9ghz all cores. Temps and speeds were taken with ryzen master software in a temperature controlled home with the stock fan curve. While gaming I dont see temps climb beyond 67c. I do belive there are better coolers out there and I may change eventually but it does the job.
Great little m.2 drive
For the price and size this thing is fast. I’m useing it as my OS drive and not much else and my boot times very quick with windows 10 and the drive runs cool with the “heat sink” included. I do have a decent amount of air cooling (6 120mm fans) and with the monitoring software I have I’ve never seen the drive break 40C but I don’t have games in the drive so that could be a factor. I have had some boot issues but that’s due to the bios of the motherboard not the drive itself and with a little tweaking it’s been smooth sailing. I’d recommend this drive for both the speed and price. In my mind why spend more for a “name brand” chip when the budget stuff works just as well for half the price.
