Work like a charm

ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1070 Mini, ZT-P10700G-10M, 8GB GDDR5
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1070 Mini, ZT-P10700G-10M, 8GB GDDR5

Pros: - overclocked very well for me. - stays pretty cool too. - does what I expected it to.

Cons: - Price is still a little high but it is almost at it msrp.

Overall Review: No real complaints really. Just think the prices on GPU's are still high. I picked this up due to it being family close to its MSRP. I will be upgrading eventually when prices come down, I just needed this for my new build so I could still game and work. With this card and the ryzen 5 2600x I am getting over 130fps in pubg on high settings with AA and Motion blur off in 1080p. Everything else that I play is over 200fps on max settings with AA and motion blur off at 1080p. On superposition I scored a 3339 on 1080p extreme, out of the box. After overclocking the GPU I scored the following - 1080p extreme (3591) 4k Optimized (5444).

Amazing for the price

Pros: -Price is a hug pro compared to anyone else in this price range. - Feel good in the hands - Pedals feel a lot better than I anticipated.

Cons: - Does not grip at all on hard surfaces - takes time to get it to your liking in each game.

Overall Review: Best wheel near the price. Did a ton of research and this for the price is definitely the one to go with. Take note that every game you will need to mess with the settings in game to get it where you like. (at least on pc)

Good Buy

Pros: - Runs great right out of the box. - No need to really overclock this.(good for someone that doesn't know hoot overclock) - The wraith cooler is perfect since this does not require to be over clocked. - price for what you get is very good

Cons: - No Overclocking headroom

Overall Review: Very good cpu. I have run so many benchmarks with the stock setting and over clocking the cpu and/or ram. I was showing that leaving the stock settings on the cpu and only clocking your ram up is all you need to do. My result consistently scored higher leaving the cpu alone and letting it do its own boosts when it is needing it. I have this paired with 16gb 3000mh ram and a gtx1070. I get over 140 frames on high setting in Pubg, which is very cpu/ram heavy. Pretty much every other games I play is at max 1080p settings. Fortnite sits above 200fps. the vga has a lot to do with with that. I was scoring around 1400 in cinebench after clocking my ram at 3200.

As expected
