Fine card

Pros: As has been stated in previous reviews, this comes out of the box clocked at 1000MHz. Speedy, able to handle any games I've thrown at it.
Cons: Haven't found any physical problem with the card. I got this card elsewhere (that place named for the jungle in South America), and again as has been stated before, no "Never Settle" game coupons in the box. Have contacted Gigabyte and AMD with no response. Frustrating when four free, reasonably new games are advertised but not delivered.

Not so good...

Pros: Looks nice; pretty blue backlit keys.
Cons: I've had this thing for six months, and already several of the keys stick, to the point where I have to carefully review what I've typed to make sure things are not misspelled. Can you imagine if I typed the word "shift" and the "f" key stuck?
Overall Review: I don't think you (reading this) should buy it. Keep shopping...
Better...

Pros: Nice feel to it, nice backlighting which could be a little brighter, nice design.
Cons: So far I have no serious complaints.
Overall Review: OK, I got this as an exchange directly from Brainydeal. The model I first got the backlighting would "strobe" on and off with no options, which was beyond irritating. I wrote a rather uncomplimentary review on the Brainydeal page at Newegg...they then contacted me directly via email and offered a full refund; I elected to exchange the old one for this model, and they even refunded me the $6 price difference. Kudos to Brainydeal for going above and beyond...
Amendment to previous review

Pros: Previously I complained about Brainydeal's support, due to the fact that I was quite irritated about the backlit keyboard I bought not staying backlit (it kind of "strobed" on and off) and that the responses I got seemed "canned", perhaps going through an online translator. Brainydeal saw what I posted previously, then communicated directly with me on virtually a daily basis, and offered me a full refund. They did an outstanding job in dealing with my issues, and in response I accepted the refund and elected to get a different keyboard from them (which, incidentally, works just fine). They credited me the price difference ($6 in my favor), sent me a prepaid UPS tag to send the original back to them, and sent the new one out two day air. To me, that's above and beyond normal procedure, and I am grateful to them for their assistance. They didn't have to do what they did.
Cons: none
Overall Review: After this, I'd recommend these folks to anyone. Thank you, Brainydeal...
A fine backup

Pros: External HDDs are a dime a dozen. The nice thing about this line of externals is their physical size (not capacity); they are pretty compact. It's also nice to be able to choose your color: the blue model I have matches the blue LEDs in my case fans as well as my (soon to be replaced) blue backlit keyboard. My wife's red one matches the color of her case and LEDs.
Cons: The included USB 3.0 cord is rather short, only a foot or so long. Still, it's good enough to reach the USB 3.0 ports on my motherboard.

Nice

Pros: Nice monitor. It comes out of the box with a very bright screen, but that can be adjusted using the "i-Menu" utility that comes on the install disk. Obviously, this 27" model increases your viewing area; I'm upgrading from an old (5 years+) 24" Samsung.
Cons: It's only 60Hz, but that's OK, I can live with that. The i-Menu comes out written in Chinese, but you can discern what it means by looking at the accompanying pictures. Not enough to deduct an egg, though.
Overall Review: At $200 with free shipping this was hard to pass up. Now it's back up to $250 with $7+ shipping, so I guess I pushed the button at the right time. My wife got herself a $600 Sony Xperia Z tablet, and I got this plus a Radeon 7950 video card. Next, I need a new keyboard...
