Good, but loud

EVGA 512-P3-N977-TR GeForce 9800 GT Superclocked Edition 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card
EVGA 512-P3-N977-TR GeForce 9800 GT Superclocked Edition 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

Pros: Card runs well and is very cost effective.

Cons: This is the loudest video card I have ever heard. I don't think this matters to most people, but if you care about noise at all, this is not the card for you.

Overall Review: I did not purchase this card, but was given it by EVGA when I RMA'd my original 9800GT. That first card was double-width and exhausted out of the chassis.

Works now

ENERMAX PRO87+ EPG600AWT 600 W 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Active PFC Power Supply
ENERMAX PRO87+ EPG600AWT 600 W 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Pros: Works fine. Would buy their stuff again.

Cons: It had a random, intermittent power-cycling problem when I first got it. It took a while to diagnose because it sometimes wouldn't happen for a week. I RMA'd to Enermax and they replaced it. Only downside to the RMA process was that their support webpage was down and I couldn't see the status of my RMA.

Overall Review: Even though it's standard in the industry, I wanted to mention that Enermax has you pay for RMA shipping to their location and charges a non-refundable fee for cross-ship/advance RMA ($20 I think). So I had to pay $11 (PSUs are heavy) and had to wait 2 weeks even though they just sent me a brand-new PSU in a retail box anyway.

No problems

Overall Review: I don't use this frequently and have not stress-tested it, but it always works.
