Amazing Apu for the price!
Pros: -it's fantastic for 4k video/photo editing -you can play games at 1366 x 768 with pretty decent frame rates and graphics settings. I tested Skyrim and at high settings (shadows and radial blur were low, no AA, AF x4, view distance was medium) I was getting 42 fps on average. Tomb Raider 2013, I got 33 fps on average with High settings (shadows low, hair normal, no tesselation) -great for play games from 2012 and back, with decent graphical settings. - This processor IS OVERCLOCKABLE! I got it up to 4 ghz. no problem! Granted I have tried 3 different motherboard manufacturers and only Asus Prime-B350m mobotherboard would overclock. I tried MSI B350 Pro VDH and Gigabyte AB350 and neither of those motherboards would overclock the processor. -Great for home theatre
Cons: -Wish it could wash my laundry for me, oh well.
Overall Review: -Make sure you use ONLY 2400 mhz ddr4 ram. I tried using 3000 mhz ram and downclocking it 2400 mhz but the PC would crash every time. I tried this on 3 different B350 motherboards!
Great for the price!
Pros: -The mouse fists perfectly in my hand (I have a medium size hand). -The mouse is super smooth on screen, it can go all the up 4000 dpi. I prefer 2000 dpi for gaming. So it's got flexibility there. -Even though the mouse is plastic it feels like good quality and the color of lights fade in and out to different colors. -Keyboard feels good when typing. The the color of backlighting can be solid color, fade in and out to different colors, and cascade colors. Lots of good options for backlighting. -Again, even though the keyboard is plastic, it doesn't feel like garbage.
Overall Review: It's honestly a great keyboard and mouse combo for the price. Whether you use it for home use/typing or gaming.
New and Improved Wifi Card
Pros: -Excellent wifi speeds for both 2.4ghz./5ghz. bands -The connection is strong and doesn't drop at all -Wifi antenna cables now have a plastic clip that keep the cables from coming loose on the wifi card itself (it was a problem on the previous version, now it's fixed) -This new card is 2100 sq. ft. of connection distance, the previous card was 1200 sq. ft. -It has bluetooth 5.0, so all my bluetooth devices have a stronger connection now..
Cons: -None
Overall Review: -The price is great especially since you are getting the latest version of bluetooth and the card has really nice connection distance.
Awesome card/Great Cooling
Pros: -Quiet: I manually run the graphics card fans at 60% and I can't hear them over my case fans. As a rule of thumb for most graphics cards, always set a manual fan curve (use msi afterburner) to get the best temperature and noise levels. -Temperature: never went above 72 degrees C at full load (60% manual fan speed). -Overclocking: The specs on newegg say 1620mhz. for the core, but it's actually 1800 mhz auto boost. I was able to get the core up to 1950 mhz. Definitely could have gotten it higher. That's all the time I've had to overclock so far.
Cons: None
Overall Review: It has 1 x 8 pin and 1 x 6 pin PCI-E power ports, while most 2070s only have 1 x 8 pin. Hence the reason it overclocks well.
Used on over 20 Computers! Works great!
Pros: -I own an IT business and have used this adapter for over 20 computers on Windows 7, 8, and 10. -Speeds work great (on 5ghz. band) -Strong connection, zero connection drops -You can use the 2 ft. cable or just plug the adapter directly into a usb port
Cons: -Only 1 adapter died out of 20, so i guess this is sort of a Con and a Pro.
Overall Review: The negative reviews either had duds, or just got damaged in shipping. I see this happen all the time when ordering hard drives, motherboards, etc. Computer parts are usually damaged due to the mailing service being rough with the packages.
Awesome GPU! Don't listen to the false review!
Pros: -This card is the most quiet of the 3 RTX 2060 cards that I've personally tested (tested Zotac, Gigabyte 2 x Windforce, and this EVGA gpu). All 3 cards were tested at 75% fan speed and I couldn't hear any of them, especially this card. -This card's max temp was 80 degrees Celsius (The Gigabyte card's max temp was 87 degrees C. The Zotac's max temp was 84 C).
Cons: The entire "RTX 2060" lineup runs hot no matter which brand you get.
Good company
Came on time and the item was exactly what I ordered.
Fantastic CPU Cooler
Pros: Very quiet fans (even at 100% fan speed)! I have the fan curve set from 80% as a base speed and still dont hear it over my case fans! Used it with a Ryzen 7 2700X and temps stay at around 70 C. at full load and 35 C. at idle. Cons: The thermal paste that comes with it isnt that great. I would use Artic Silver 5 or Thermal Grizzly thermal paste.
Great Hub Good Price
Can't go wrong with this hub! I've bought 2 and they work perfectly!
