Most Favorable Review

EVGA 1200W and 1000W Platinums are the only PSU's I'd use

EVGA SuperNOVA 1200 P2 220-P2-1200-X1 80+ PLATINUM 1200W Fully Modular EVGA ECO Mode Includes FREE Power On Self Tester Power Supply
EVGA SuperNOVA 1200 P2 220-P2-1200-X1 80+ PLATINUM 1200W Fully Modular EVGA ECO Mode Includes FREE Power On Self Tester Power Supply

Pros: Fully modular and 1200 Watts of clean power to drive my 6950-x, 7700k, and now my 1800X system! All 3 systems are SLI'ed with EVGA Titan-X' and 1080's. Fairly quiet - between 30 - 60dB - once the fan starts running but not quiet enough in an isolated recording environment (studio). Not really a "Con" as most users will have ambient noise to wash it out.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: I only use EVGA's Platinum PSUs in all my systems and for all client builds - can't go wrong with the quality and warranty. One "little" feature I'd like to see is a fan-curve control option as available in the XOC app.

Most Critical Review

Cheap drives, not very dependable

ADATA Ultimate SU650 2.5" 960GB SATA III 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) ASU650SS-960GT-R
ADATA Ultimate SU650 2.5" 960GB SATA III 3D NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) ASU650SS-960GT-R

Pros: - low cost

Cons: - High failure rate! - slow compared to other options

Overall Review: Purchased a few of these for PIF (pay-it-forward) builds and out of 5 rigs 3 had to be RMA'd. On all 3 occasions the RMA process was smooth and reasonably fast (under 2 weeks) considering the price of this drive. Adata is not a bad brand by any means and they do take care of their customers; however, this specific model, I cannot recommend for anything semi-critical. I currently have a few of these as test drives and scratch disks and can no longer use them for PIFs or any other purpose.

Works great for my Legion 5 (AMD CPU)

Team T-FORCE ZEUS 32GB (2 x 16GB) 260-Pin DDR4 SO-DIMM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Laptop Memory Model TTZD432G3200HC16FDC-S01
Team T-FORCE ZEUS 32GB (2 x 16GB) 260-Pin DDR4 SO-DIMM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Laptop Memory Model TTZD432G3200HC16FDC-S01

Overall Review: While I can't set the timings in the BIOS, the memory still works great (actually faster compared with the original ram), but still not at the CL16. Not a big deal since I use the memory (and this laptop) more for video/visual/media manipulation where memory comes in handy. Overall a big fan of TG's memory especially in AMD rigs.

Great kit for my Threadripper build

G.SKILL Trident Z RGB (For AMD) 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16Q-32GTZRX
G.SKILL Trident Z RGB (For AMD) 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16Q-32GTZRX

Pros: Plugged 2 of these kits in my Asus Zenith Alpha paired with an AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2950X. Set it to 3200MHz and the rest is a done deal.

Cons: n/a

Overall Review: - Trusted quality from G.Skill - I haven't built a system (Intel and AMD) in over 7 years - that's not about to change any time soon.

A Game Changer, really.

AMD Ryzen 7 1st Gen - RYZEN 7 1800X Summit Ridge (Zen)  8-Core 3.6 GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) Socket AM4 95W YD180XBCAEWOF Desktop Processor
AMD Ryzen 7 1st Gen - RYZEN 7 1800X Summit Ridge (Zen) 8-Core 3.6 GHz (4.0 GHz Turbo) Socket AM4 95W YD180XBCAEWOF Desktop Processor

Pros: - LOW TDP, even OC'ed to 4.1GHz - Price/Performance is a no-brainer. You can go with a $900+ counter part, or low-$400's; your pick.

Cons: - none really. Wish I had this a year ago!

Overall Review: It took 3 months or so for a decent BIOS update, but that's all due seemingly to a rushed release - by now (7/24/2017) most manufacturers have caught up and implemented AMD's AGESA 1.0.0.6 which makes over all compatibility and OC-ability even easier. For the price and performance there's really nothing negative I can say; it just plain works!

Excellent RAM, Do NOT use multiple RGB controller apps

G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C14Q-32GTZR
G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C14Q-32GTZR

Pros: - Best looking RGB implementation - Out of the box, 3200MHz on Crosshair VI Hero - OC and RAM stable at 3466MHz (this kit).

Cons: - none

Overall Review: - As the title states, do NOT, under ANY circumstance use more than one RGB controller. If you had one installed previously, clean it out, ALL the way (registry, background apps etc; kill it all). You can end up with a corrupt SPD. Even with all the negative feedback, 99% of all issues seem to be from using multiple RGB controllers.

Fast shipping and decent prices!

Fast shipping and great packaging. I generally do not purchase anything unless it comes from NewEgg directly so took a chance and I'm glad I did. Will consider OutletPC again.
