No regrats
Pros: No surprises. High benchmark scores and ultra settings at 60+ fps on all modern games. I have almost zero bottlenecks on my system and so tests and benchmarks were very clean.
Cons: Also no surprieses on cons. Runs a little hot but temps are steady. Price is not a con as others have mentioned. Titanx power at 300 bucks less. Price is a pro here and you get more than you paid for.

Worthless
Pros: It's free
Cons: I read the comments and no one even won the hoodie. Starting to think there is no hoodie and the gaming rig is fake.
Overall Review: They should at least provide Steam codes for really cheap games as a consolation for spending 300+ on a product of theirs.
Impressed with the PS5... though it's still too early to own.
Pros: -As a PC enthusiast I was surprised by the performance of the PS5. The visuals and load times are as advertised and then some. -The new controllers are also the best I have ever held. - Delivery was faster than expected and the condition of the PS5 was great. There was no evidence that the box had been opened or tampered with.
Cons: -The game library in terms of exclusives is very limited. New games are on the way but currently there is hardly a reason to purchase a PS5 as most of the library is still available on PS4 and other platforms. - This unit generates a ton of heat and it is highly recommended to keep the console in an open space with plenty of available room for airflow.
Overall Review: - It's now 2022 and I still don't recommend you waste your money buying through a scalper unless you have no other gaming platform to play on. -I am ashamed of myself for caving and supporting one of the most cancerous afflictions to hit the modern gaming market by buying through a scalper. I clearly have issues with impulse... I tried for over a year to buy it legit but I just couldn't beat the bots.
A real Gem
Pros: Card arrived quickly. Card was packaged very well. Card looks beautiful. Plays everything I throw at it maxed with at least x4AA stable around 80-120 FPS depending on game. Fan is a lot quieter than my GTX 660ti Temps stay cool. Tons of room for extra OC.
Cons: Drivers are still horrible but that is expected of any new GTX series cards. Most folks will notice a freeze or system shutdown every two days until it is resolved but really is shutting down your machine every two days such a bad thing when compared to the sheer performance this card throws out. And eventually in the next few weeks there will be a better driver release so I can' down an egg for that.
Overall Review: I was gaming for several hours the first night and reached behind my pc near the VGA vents and there was room temperature air coming off of the video board. That's how cool it stays, any of my other GTX cards would have melted my fingers off but this baby stays cool.
Will not fit all boards
Pros: Looks awesome! Reduces Temps.
Cons: It sits quite high above the memory and the latches do not fit snug on the memory latches as intended. Whenever I need to move my case I first need to take the fans off and unplug them so that the fans don't fall off the memory and bounce around.
Overall Review: MotherBoard: P6X58D PREMIUM Did not fit on my board. If you bend the legs where they latch it will stay on a little better but it's still a gamble.
