High quality case!

Pros: VERY impressed with this case i think its the best one i have owned in all of my cases ! Case is very sturdy and easy to install components . Dual chamber with the option of a second motherboard . Cooing is robust with many fan configurations . Designed for water cooling using AIO or custom loop. Very nice cable management makes things easy and kinda fun. RGB is awesome love the strip in the front . Cooling is so much better in this case then my last one , this case will cool any cpu configuration .
Cons: None
Overall Review: Yes i would recommend this to anyone
Ok cooler

Pros: Very nice clean look and the build is high quality .
Cons: The cooler started to have issues 7 months of use and no matter what i did to correct it the software would just freeze . The pump also had a issue . Replaced the cooler with a different brand and it cools so much better and without software issues .
Overall Review: If they can fix the software issue then it would be a great cooler .
Corsair never dissapoints

Pros: The ram worked and was compatible with my systems .
Cons: Would not run XMP stable . but that may just be my settings in the bios and had to tweak the settings to get the full speed of he ram for the time being .
Overall Review: Yes i would recommend this to anyone , i have run corsair in all my builds through the past 25 years or so and they work very well and are compatible with most everything .
Robust Asus Tuf Z890

Pros: Very well made and can handle anything you throw at it . A+ on the bios flashback to get the board to post!
Cons: Got this Asus Tuf z890 and had to do a bios flashback to get it to post and when i finally got it to post it boot looped telling me to update the ME and for some reason i could not , well the ME would not update because it was missing the ME drivers so this is new to me but found the ME driver on the Asus website and then the ME update tool worked . Wish i knew from the beginning that it did not have the ME driver , very weird but this may help someone with the same issue .
Overall Review: I would recommend this to anyone but be you will more than likely have to do a bios flashback and update the ME separate .
Exceeded my expectations

Pros: Very fast drive . Drive speeds are almost the same as my 990 pro drive. Very affordable and well made
Cons: None
Overall Review: If you need a quality drive for a new build this is the drive for you with its affordable cost and fast reliable drive that is very high quality . I recommend this to anyone looking for a low cost storage source .
AWESOME cooler

Pros: Cools 10 to 20c better than my last cooler Very well made and the screen popping off makes i a bit easier to install . Screen is very clear and robust Pump i quiet and cools the system better than all my other coolers
Cons: Not a con but Armory crate is a bit weird when changing the display but i blame it on Amory crate as it can be glitchy some times .
Overall Review: I would recommend this to anyone looking for a cooler for a hot running CPU or just like the aesthetics of the cooler.
