Pros: I loaded this into a Ryzen based ESXi whitebox without issue. Had it running at the advertised 3000mhz after applying xmp and has remained stable ever since. I have the 3200 variant of this running in another ESXi node that dual boots to windows. Both run as advertised however, I had issues with the 3200 variant after updating my BIOS. Nothing bad to say about this memory and the price was right.

Cons: N/A - Runs as expected for a home virtualization lab. Would work just the same for Windows, etc.

Overall Review: Ram prices have finally come down, you can find these kits on sale for reasonable prices vs 1 year ago when looking at the history in PC Part Picker.

Pros: A little over one year and three months later, this card is still fantastic! For a card that costs under $200 there can be no complaints as far as performance. In fact I would say this was the best deals for a video card in my PC building career. The price to performance is great and it's still beating up most games at High/Ultra. Pros: - Great Price/Performance ratio - Plays all modern games at High/Ultra - Everything renders beautifully - No issues regarding drivers Cons: - When using my speakers instead of headphones, the fan is very noticeable. - When playing demanding games, the fan gets loud.
