Most Favorable Review

Functions very well and looks great, it was also quite good value for money.

DeepCool AK620 WH High-Performance CPU Cooler, Dual-Tower Design, 2x 120mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing Fans, 6 Copper Heat Pipes, 260W Heat Dissipation, White.
DeepCool AK620 WH High-Performance CPU Cooler, Dual-Tower Design, 2x 120mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing Fans, 6 Copper Heat Pipes, 260W Heat Dissipation, White.

Pros: Top-Notch Air Cooling: my Ryzen 9 5900x running a modest 4.6ghz overclock has yet to jump above 70 celsius according to HWMonitor software. Wonderful aesthetic: it matches my white build extremely well and i like the uniform look of the fan/radiator combo. Great value for money: I was able to catch this on sale and ended up paying about half as much for comparably preforming coolers on the market and none of them look this good imo.

Cons: not sure if this qualifies but installation was slightly frustrating and i do hope the two point mounting system holds up over time but so far so good.

Overall Review: i recommend this to anyone looking for a good looking, high functioning air cooler.

A Good value case for a great price.

Montech X3 Mesh 6pcs, 3 x 140mm& 3 x 120mm Fixed RGB Lighting Fans (Pre-Installed) ATX Mid-Tower PC Gaming Case, USB3.0, Door Open Tempered Glass Side Panel, High Airflow, White

Pros: Affordable: this case seems to be comparable to others that are almost twice the price yet i cant find a discernible difference in features for the most part. Light weight: not sure how important this is but its noticeably lighter than my previous case Appearance: looks good, has a big glass side panel so your entire build will be featured from one side.

Cons: seems "cheap": although it wont get moved regularly i def noticed that the panels and case frame seemed almost flimsy to the touch, though i had to expect something like this for the price point. Included rgb fans aren't adjustable and they use outdated molex connectors

Overall Review: i bought this case to do a build for my mother using leftover parts from my covid 19 build from 2020. its cheap, looks good and comes with included fans which were the main reasons i purchased it, unfortunately the fans are not adjustable but for a value build i cant really complain and the $55 price was well worth the look on her face when i gave it to her. she had never seen a modern diy PC before and was confounded by the "fancy lights".

Looks good and works great in my system!

Pros: preforms well in games: runs all my games optimally. Looks great: one of the best looking GPU's for an all white build. Decent price when i bought it: got it on sale for about $300 less than msrp when it released.

Cons: not really a con in my case(literally) but it is a long, thick GPU so make sure you have room in yours if considering this graphics card.

Overall Review: i would definitely recommend this GPU for anyone who wants good performance and a white aesthetic.

works great in my older case

Pros: ez to install works with HDD and SSD(sata) economical great way to add extra storage AND take advantage of unused optical drive bays

Cons: none so far

Overall Review: i have a full tower case from around 2012 with four optical drive bays and have also recently upgraded my GPU to a Radeon 6950xt which is over 12.5" long and 3 slots thick. so i wanted to make more room for it and utilizing three of the four bays with these adapters has allowed me to completely remove the HDD cage from inside the case to not only make room for the new GPU but also help with the airflow for cooling.
