Massively Awesome!
Pros: Solid mounting system, keeps everything above your GPU very cool, clears Corsair Vengeance Ram comfortably, and can install up to 3/140 mm fans!
Cons: Only has clips for two fans but easy enough to get more.
Overall Review: I went with XIGMATEK XAF-F1452 / x3 fans. I've found this cooler to be a much better solution than the contained water systems by Antek and Corsair, (I own both), for overclocking because it keeps the WHOLE top of the mobo cool and the fans are whisper quiet! 3 white 140's and UV lighting.....NICE!
Awesome while it lasted
Pros: Perfect for any orange/black build, remote works well and controlled fans and read temps/fan speeds great....at first.
Cons: After a few months the fan speeds would randomly set itself below speed of waning beeps and I would have to scramble to find remote to reset speed/s both at startup and during gaming. Little over a year and two of the four lamps burned out, once one of the numbers fail it takes the rest out soon after, very soon after!
Overall Review: I got mine at F-CPU for same price before they crashed and burned. If it were much cheaper I would replace it... but at this price it's not worth the risk.
Top notch stix!
Pros: I've been running them for over two months and they run great with the 8700k CPU. They play very well with XMP and I haven't had any bios resets due to startup glitches. This set has run solid and they look great doing it!
Cons: NONE
Overall Review: I have these running on a Gigabyte Z370N ITX mobo and I couldn't be any happier with the performance of this set...Well Done G.Skill!
Still running strong (240GB version)
Pros: Rock solid and fast since 2012!
Cons: None at all.
Overall Review: Drive has been in 3 different systems as a boot/program files drive since i bought it in Feb 2012 and hasn't stuttered once. This thing is a workhorse!
Good thing I had four...
Pros: It's Corsair...enough said.
Cons: A little over 4 months in, one stick flat lined. System crashed while preforming a virus scan and wouldn't reboot, had some system glitches that led me to do the scan and it ended up being one of the sticks in the set that was causing the problems. System is still cranking strong only two sticks, I just have to lighten the load on it a bit.
Overall Review: I've run Corsair memory in most of my builds over the years and this is my first and only problem and won't keep me from going Corsair again, the odds finally caught up with me...hopefully the RMA process will be painless.
Clean, Quiet Power.
Pros: Very quiet... Gaming with an i7-8320 and two HD-7950's full tilt settings and I have to check the fan to make sure it's spinning. Connectors all fit snug, none loose...a big+!
Cons: Cables are very stiff (not really a con). Take your time routing and shaping them BEFORE you connect them, you'll avoid breaking mobo and GPU connectors... they WILL hold their shape when done.
Overall Review: Running : i7-3820 2/ HD7950'5 2/ D5 vario pumps mem, fans, lighting, drives etc... ...All, no problemo!
