Excellent Card upgraded from EVGA GTX 1070 FE.

Pros: -cool temperatures have yet to see it go above 67 even under full load. -performance is as expected -can overclock nicely +1-+130 core clock, +1-+900 mem clock.
Cons: -Software is kind of a mess RGB FUSION is broken atm and won't open up so can't change the LED on the card. -AORUS Engine lacking On Screen Display to make it worthy over apps like EVGA PrecisionX or MSI Afterburner 4.6.
Overall Review: -Lack of RTX features atm like DLSS. Overall exactly what expected performance wise and knowing I would have to wait for RTX features but definitely not impressed with AORUS Engine software, but not worth removing an egg atm. 4.5 eggs would be fair.
Terrible Product
![[USB3.1 Gen2 to SATA3.0 ]ORICO 3.5 inch Type-C USB 3.1 (10 Gbps )Hard Drive Enclosure Case for 3.5" SATA HDD Support UASP Protocols 8TB Max Tool Free -Black](https://c1.neweggimages.com/ProductImageCompressAll125/A1DS_131466288234886367bYf4SuDso0.jpg)
Pros: -speed
Cons: -Power cord made loud noises when plugged in so bad I had to keep unplugged to sleep. -died after 3 months
Overall Review: -Wasn't worth the hassle of RMA for loud power cord especially when next one I got could be the same. Did not last long at all for a while I thought it was my Harddrive that died but when I got around to testing hd in a docking station it worked so this enclosured stopped working and it was still being powered so I doubt it was faulty noisy power cord. Windows would recognize it as needing to be Formatted as if it was a brand new drive except it wouldn't work. I have other Orico products and they are fantastic this drive is a just a dud. I have a usb hub, hd docking station, 2.5" ssd enclosure all from ORICO. I am glad this wasn't my first experience with ORICO as if it was I would be hesitant to buy anything else from them.
Awesome GPU very quiet/low temps

Overall Review: Undervolt profile of 1815mhz @ 875mV results in 37C temps with constant 97/98% gpu usage in AC valhalla with a fan speed of 44% across all 3 fans and room temp of 70C. (It is winter here in northern ontario though) Another undervolt profile I have is 1935mhz@950mV. Stock resulted in 99.1% pass in 20 min timespy stress test 1815mhz@875mV=99.4% 1935mhz@950mV=99.3% Have not tested max GPU clock yet but very happy with this card these are temps I thought I would have need watercooled GPU to get. The RGB customization is great and the app is a huge step up from my gigabyte. The photos really don't do this GPU justice I thought looking at the 3080 the cooler looked kind of ugly at first glance and temps online 74C were awful so I ignored it for a while until recently it was only GPU available at the time and saw the same review websites show 57C as load temp I was very interested then. Inside the case it is a beauty and the design is obviously very good for a 3070's power given my temps I am wondering if 3080 can really be that much higher stock and what same undervolt profiles will do. Big plus with EVGA is their 90 day stepup program so if a 3080ti releases within 90 day time frame I can trade in my 3070 for it and not have to wait or get a 3080 thats extremely difficult to purchase unless you live close enough to a Canada Computers or Memory Express location that is doing in store pickup only in the middle of a pandemic???!
Works

Pros: Great performance
Cons: Only con is having other rgb software affecting gskill rgb like mystic light.
Overall Review: Got expected speeds and timings np on msi z490 unify
Excellent case - Wish more cases makers would take notes.

Pros: - Side Fan, Tons of options for fans and radiators. - Ability to install PSU in 2 locations. - Awesome idea with locations for ssd's/harddrives. - Removeable harddrive/ssd bays is perfect. - Great temps however with a few tweaks could've been even better.
Cons: -Cheap plastic would of loved a version that was steel/aluminum on top of this budget friendly case -Should have made room for 120mm fan on rear... so the case would have been 1.6" wider big deal. Could of even fit 2, 120mm on rear by increasing case height by 0.5" or you could've went with 2" bigger height giving room for radiator on rear also. It turns out with 2 80mm noctua NF-A8 on the rear it's the most important fans in the whole case when doing air cooled GPU. I have monster RTX 2080 Gigabyte Gaming OC heat rises and your logo placement interfering with rear fans being as close to GPU as possible doesn't help. 3 Corsair LL120's on top as exhaust running them on max 2200rpm didn't make up for difference the 2 80mm made. 3 LL120's on front as intake. Corsair h100i platinum on side as exhaust push/pull. Noctua 2000 rpm bot intake, Noctua 3000rpm bot intake which I will be replacing with 3 QL 120's.
Overall Review: I would definitely recommend this case to anybody there is not much out there with SIDE rad mount that competes with it those that do have other flaws or are 5x the price. I would love to see a PC-011 AIR XL version with ability to have 4 120mm on top, 4 120mm on side, 4 120mm on front, 4 120mm on bottom, 2 120mm on rear all with rad support. Ideal setup IMO with AIO cpu cooler would be on the side and AIO GPU on the rear. This would give the case more cable management options over PC-011 AIR. Another option I would be perfectly fine with is 1-2 120mm on rear, 3 120mm on bottom, 3 120mm on top, 4 120mm on front, 4 120mm on side, aluminum/steel option and top panel mesh. I miss the days of Full Towers and getting a case that fits all my needs now a days every case has some kind of flaw. I'm glad this was a budget case I could be happy with that didn't cost me too much money while I wait for a case company to make one that fits my needs.
Awesome ram

Pros: -Compatible with MSI z390 tomahawk ace, literally only needed to turn on XMP, one big reason I choose MSI is memory compatibility. -RGB effect is nice compatible with MSI Mystic light
Cons: -None atm
Overall Review: Even if your motherboard will only support this at 4133mhz or 4000mhz its worth it to future proof this component. I upgraded from ddr3 1886mhz (4x4gb) that orange/blue leds man what a difference quality of leds are now a days.
