An Investment Worth The Money
Pros: All the technology NVIDIA has to offer, 4 GB of RAM which is better than getting a gtx 690, which has 2GB for each GPU, limiting performance in games that demand it or for high resolutions, so SLI is always a plus. Runs everything without a problem on high settings and stays fairly cool. =) LIFETIME WARRENTY
Cons: None.
Overall Review: As I said before, 4GB for each card with SLI is better than a GTX 690. I see this card as an investment, unless, well, until actually, newer "technology" in cards come out that's actually worth taking a note in or unless games demand an ungodly level of performance, this card is one that will last you MANY years to come. I can run Metro 2033 on the highest possible settings on 1920x1080, with Anti-Aliasing forced off via the NVIDIA Control Panel since I don't see much of a need for Anti-Aliasing at a high resolution, getting a smooth, constant 60 Frames Per Second. But everyone's different.
Great CPU!
Pros: This CPU is great and just blows everything away. That 15MB Cache really helps out a lot too. =)
Cons: The price. But for a first build in several years? Definetly worth it if you want something to last. =)
GREAT CPU!!!
Pros: 6 Cores, High Clock Speed, 15MB Cache, Biggest I've Seen So Far, OverClockability, etc
Cons: As many would say, price, but it's the best one on the market in my opinion, so far.
Overall Review: The guy below me is nothing more than a troll and probably an AMD fan boy, the fact that he took time out of his day to write a negative review for those reasons says a lot about him as a person.
Great Job Microsoft!
Pros: Microsoft actually made a good version of their console, finally, no more red rings.
Cons: Console will be outdated in years to come.
Overall Review: I recommend you get this instead of the ones with a hard drive, reason being, that 4GB is actually a memory chip on the motherboard that the other consoles that come with the hard drive don't have, another classic Microsoft move, but I recommend getting this for that reason then buying the 250GB or if you can wait the 320GB. If you put JUST your profile on the 4GB chip after getting the hard drive, you will get a noticable performance boost from the console overall.
